1. Why does InDesign not include all new Pantone colors?

   I have 2 year old Pantone book and InDesign doesn't even include all of those colors. Fix your stupid software so it is up to date. Paying for this lousy software every month makes me feel like I am being robbed.

2. Separations Preview

   Like previous versions of InDesign CC the color separations preview still does not work correctly.

   When user tries to view separations by turning a color separation off, or toggling back and forth between colors, the visible page in the document goes completely haywire - scattering elements and superimposing images from other nearby pages. See attached screenshots of the issue.

   This has been an issue for awhile and I am dismayed it still has not been addressed as it is a very useful function in the printing industry. Since the launch of CC I have had to check my separations in Acrobat and then re-enter InDesign to make any corrections. In previous versions it used to work correctly.

3. Indesign will not tag endnotes to XML

   When Adding untagged items to the Structure, Indesign promptly states that Endnotes are not supported for XML tagging. I use XML tagging process for creating reliable Accessible WCAG compliant PDFs, and other export requirements. Please make Endnotes USEFUL - 1. keep in same story (not an additional frame) and make tagging process available.
   OR... a way to convert endnotes to linked cross references - even in tables!
   Tables if Indesign worst thought when it comes to footnotes and endnotes.

4. Pallette pop-up menus appear on dual monitor

   I'm using InDesign CC (latest version) on a Macbook Pro 15" (OS 10.13.3) together with a Dell 24" monitor. Most of my pallettes (except the very basic ones) are on my Macbook, while I have my workfield on the bigger monitor. What happens is that the pop-up menus of the pallettes i keep on the on the Macscreen appear on the big monitor, for instance all the transparancy-options. Very annoying and time-consuming!
   I tried resetting the prefs, re-installed InDesign, but no effect. Does anybody recognize this and have a fix? Thanks a lot!

6. Placing illustrator files is very very very slow after update

   After updating AI and INDD, placing AI files into INDD is taking a very long time. I made an update to an AI file that was placed into an existing INDD files that contains 13 placed AI files. I only updated a few of the linked AI files. Prior to the AI and INDD update, updating these placed links took a few seconds each max. Now, just to update the two links takes about 2 minutes.

   This MAY be an AI bug, but I don't know how make that determination as I updated bothat the same time.

11. Table header is missing after copy/paste

    When I copy/paste a table, the header line is missing. My workaround is to change the height of the next line, then the header line appears. Then I change the height back to the actual height.

13. Fast save is taking 37 seconds

    I imported a Word file that has a lot of linked footnotes into InDesign 2018. Spread by spread, I touch each paragraph to fix overrides. There is no reflow of text when I do this step. Yet when I do a plain "save" before going to the next spread, InDesign is taking 37 seconds to save. 37 seconds of watching the rainbow spin. InDesign is acting like it is reflowing every page in the background as it quick saves. That should not be necessary. The last time I experienced this type of slowness was back in the PageMaker days. The book is over 300 pages. 37 seconds a spread really adds up.

    Hi ,

    Can you please share screenshot for this issue. And , are you facing this issue for all the documents ?

15. Auto-sizing text frames not working

    When I try to auto-size a text box in "Text Frame Options," nothing happens. I generally click on the text box, open the text frame options panel with command-B and click on the auto-size tab. Once inside that panel, I attempt to auto-size. Nothing is grayed out so it appears as if it would work, but when I click on "width only" (or any other option), nothing happens and it just stays on the original selection. And I can't seem to find a work around either.

16. paragraph styles panel

    InDesign CC
    Expected: Paragraph Styles Panel opens to a list of my styles
    Actual: Panel opens and the list cannot be seen until the panel is widened to 3x its normal size.

    The panel appears to be split into two columns with the styles in the left column. When the panel is narrowered (ie normal size), the styles column collapses and the styles list cannot be seen. The only way to access the styles list is to enlarge the width of the panel to about 3x its normal size. Please see the attached image showing the action of the styles column as the panel is stretched from a normal size to a larger width.

    I've been an InDesign user for 10+ years and I've never experienced the styles panel having more than one column. I suspect this may be a bug in the latest upgrade.

18. InDesign crashes when mounting/updating another InDesign document with overset text

    InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.0.1
    Operating System: macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
    Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Create a new document in InDesign with at least 3 pages.
    2. Make a textbox on one of the pages (e.g. page 1) and fill it with some text.
    3. Resize the textbox so that some text overset and preflight shows 1 error - overflowing text.
    4. Save and close the document
    5. Create a new InDesign document
    6. Place the InDesign file with the overflowing textbox in the new InDesign document (NOTE: You need to place the page which actually has the overflowing text). You should get an error message that the document you want to place is containing overflowing text. Click OK.
    7. Alt+Double Click / Opt+Double Click on the placed document in order to edit it.
    8. Do some edits in the document, e.g. duplicate the textbox with the overflowing text by holding ALT while moving it. Make sure that you still have overset text in the document.
    9. Save the document, and close it by clicking CMD+W or File->Close. This should automatically lead you back to the document where you placed the document, and InDesign should try to automatically update the placed document with the new content.

    Expected result:
    InDesign should update the contents of the placed InDesign document, and not crash, regardless of whether the placed InDesign document contains overset text or not.

    Actual result:
    In my case, InDesign crashes at the end of step 9 when trying to update the placed document containing overset text. I have attached a screenshot, in addition to the crash reports generated by Apple/Adobe at this time. InDesign shows the following error message (translated from Norwegian to English): "Error: Adobe InDesign is exiting. A serious error occured. Restart InDesign to restore work in any InDesign-documents that isn't archived." It also shows a dialog box which warns you about overset text on pages in the placed document.

    Extra notes and comments:
    If InDesign didn't crash in step 9, you can try to go to the "Links" panel and update the link to the placed document, if it didn't update automatically. In general you should also try placing and updating InDesign documents containing overset text into another InDesign document, and this error should occur eventually.

    In my experience InDesign crashes very often due to this error when using a workflow which requires mounting other InDesign documents, which might contain overset text accidentally. In the workflow that we use, this error is very devastating leading to InDesign crashing up to several times per day (or per hour) in certain periods.

    The error most consistently occurs when doing some changes in a document containing overset text, and then updating it in InDesign, as described in the steps to reproduce the error. However, the error has also occured when placing the document, not just while updating it.

    I have also experienced that this error occurs even when there just are some extra lines at the end of the textbox, so that text technically overflows, but no preflight error appears because the overflowing text is just empty lines/paragraphs. This makes the bug extra difficult to avoid, because the overflowing text could be in any textbox in the document, even though no error is showed.

    This error has occured consistently over several InDesign and OS versions, at least for several years, probably since the feature to place another InDesign document was introduced.

    InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.0.1
    Operating System: macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
    Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

    1. Create a new document in InDesign with at least 3 pages.
    2. Make a textbox on one of the pages (e.g. page 1) and fill it with some text.
    3. Resize the textbox so that some text overset and preflight shows 1 error - overflowing text.

19. images pixelated when rotated

    When I place an image into InDesign it imports high res, but when the image is rotated, it becomes severely pixelated. Even when the image rotation is a small degree - just a few degrees even. The image preview becomes distorted severly and changes distortion with every degree of rotation. I should mention that I am a professional graphic designer with over 20 years of experience so I have tried all of the obvious fixes - switched view to "overprint preview", set display performance to "High Quality", deleted preferences.. I have done everything imaginable. Running a machine with 3 GB of RAM so should be fine there... contacted Adobe Customer Support and he could not resolve the issue. Says that he tried it on his end (also with high res images) and he is experiencing the same issue. Said that it is to be expected from the software. We aren't talking about a mild amount of pixelation or distortion here. As soon as you rotate, it gets REAL ugly REAL quick lol. I just refuse to believe that InDesign is that poor at image previewing. There has to be another solution to this. Example shown here is a scanned image, 720ppi - look at the lines under the logo at the top. And this is a flattened JPEG. HELP!!!! I can't be the only one experiencing this.
