1. Fonts only showing in drop down, cannot type them directly in

   InDesign 18.5

   Issue:
   Highlight text
   Click on the font Window (mine is displayed on right)
   begin to type in installed or adobe font, font does not populate

   When I type in a font, I expect to be able to populate it

   Wen I try to finish typing the font in the searchbar, it doesn't let me type in the next letter and just gives me a different font. Some fonts don't show up or do once and never again, yet are in font dropdown. This includes both installed OTC and installed Adobe fonts.

2. Alt text is lost when content is edited in InCopy

   When a file containing content which includes anchored objects (images or groups) which have alt text applied is edited in InCopy, alt text is destroyed.

   InDesign/Incopy 2023 & 2022

   Steps to reproduce:
   1) Create a new INDD file
   2) Place an image
   3) Add alt text to the image
   4) Create a text frame with some placeholder text
   5) Anchor the image into the text frame
   6) Export the story for editing in InCopy
   7) Open the file in InCopy
   8) Edit the content (Don't touch the image)
   9) Check in the file
   10) Reopen the file in InDesign and update the content

   Expected result: Updated content is displayed, all image alt text is intact

   Actual result: Updated content is displayed, anchored images' alt text reverts back to "From Structure"

3. Browsing, Searching, and Activating fonts

   For the last long while I've been having trouble with fonts in indesign and I've heard that others have the same issues.

   Only the first time I open the fonts list after restarting indesign, can I scroll through it with my arrow keys. After that, it doesn't work and therefore, it's very difficult to go through my fonts.

   Additionally, when I try typing in to the fonts bar to search for a font, it often doesn't pull up the font, as though it's not installed, when I find it if I scroll through the list.

   Also, if I try to activate a font through indesign, it endlessly tries, but doesn't actually activate.

5. After IDS install or update calls to preflight() don't work unless you manually edit ExportPreflightReport.jsx

   Whenever we install or update InDesign Server we can't call preflight() unless we manually edit the ExportPreflightReport.jsx file found here:
   C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign Server 2023\Scripts\Preflight

   We've had to do this for every version of IDS we've installed or updated (v15, v18.2.1 and 18.5). We're using Windows Server 2022 in Azure (Win64).

   I can't attach jsx or zip files but edits required are described at the bottom of this post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/problem-with-save-preflight-report-using-javascript-in-macintosh/td-p/5831477

   If we don't make these changes, calls to preflight on IDS don't produce a report. The script (ExportPreflightReport.jsx) works on InDesign Desktop.

   It would be great if IDS shipped with this ExportPreflightReport.jsx ready to go.

   Thanks.

6. Indesign FREEZES or GETS STUCK when convertign another "version" file

   My Indesign version is CC 2019. 14.0.2 64 bits
   I try to convert from version 18.2 and I logged in, as the advertisement said. But when I click "convert" the button turns from blue to grey and unselectable. And the advertisement freezes there. I have to put cancel and the program lets me cancel and the bar above is again functional. But nothing else. The program still doesnt let me convert the file.

7. Drag copying to move the duplicate object no longer shows the original during the move.

   Bug, or simply changed way to do this with modifier keys? I've noticed that lately when I drag copy an object to its new position, the original vanishes during the drag. Often I need to drag it and still see the original while dragging for an exact placement in relationship to the original being copied. Has that vanished from InDesign? If not, I've not been able to find a list of modifier keys for drag copying variations.

8. portrait mode - Whether at 125% or 100% the Indesign Interface scaling option under Preferences does not work.

   BUG DETAILS- On a Monitor that is setup in a Portrait configuration, whether at 125% or 100% display scale in Windows Settings, the Indesign Interface scaling option under Preferences does not work.

   Adobe is a publishing software, especially InDesign. Book Publishers and their graphic design team need to have the option of working in a monitor setup in a Portrait configuration for the purpose of full vertical page (height) dimensions. I cannot get Indesign to Scale the Interface at all under Preferences when monitors are set in Portrait configuration. This is a bug because the InDesign interface does scale (as intended, under Preferences) when monitors are in landscape configuration.

   The result is that the menu items and tool icons are so small they are virtually unreadable.

   Walked through this with a tech on Adobe phone Support to confirm all this - that portrait Interface scaling is not possible on my end or the tech's end. We walked through all the troubleshooting steps, including setting the Windows Display Scale settings to 100% and trying to adjust Display Resolution.

   It remains unresolved. Those of us with glasses and eye strain, thank you in advance

9. "Allow Selected Spread to Shuffle" behavior in Page Panel is opposite

   About Page Panel menu, "Allow Selected Spread to Shuffle".
   When you check here, you can’t shuffle pages. You need to be off the check to shuffle. It's contrary to content.
   I hope this will be fixed to "Not Allow Selected Spread to Shuffle".
   Thank you.

10. Print files do not get overwritten.

    Whether i'm trying to overwrite a print file created with PDF or .vps using ID 2022 (17.4.1) through the XMPie plugin compatible for this version, it will not overwrite a previous PDF or .vps. This is a very frustrating issue since I've had to update to 2022. the only way around this is to delete the old PDF or .vps prior to running the new /updated print file, which is time consuming step. I constantly have to check time stamps to be certain that the files I send to our presses is the most current files needed, especially if a quick fix needs to be done while a job is on press.

11. based on previous file

    I love the review function. however I ususally base my work on another indesignfile and i always end up with overriding the review which is soo horrible.
    fex file1.ind gets copied and the copied file becomes file2.ind. when i make review in file2.ind its based on file1.ind reviewlink. i change name and woops i messed up comments for the file1.ind cuz file2.ind ended up there. then the reviewfile is broken and i always get an error as a plus so i need to create a new reviewlink

    I wish that everynew document would get blank there creating a new reviewlink so its not based on the ind.file one made a copy of. and until that is possible that the create new review link is not hidden under the (...) then it would make it easier to remember not make this mistake over and over.

    thanks

12. Black Backgrounds When Copying PNG from Web to Indesign (Return of Bug)

    This is a recurring bug that was solved in a few past updates, but, it's back in InDesign V. 18.5.

    When you copy a transparent background PNG from Google Images (or any website) and paste it into InDesign, it will display a black box as the background.

    If you paste the same image into Photoshop, copy that, paste it into InDesign, it will not show the black background.

    This was working 100% flawlessly over the last year, but, is now broken in this new version on multiple Macs. Tried different browsers. Reset preferences, same issue.

    This was a bug that has come up multiple times over the years, and seemingly was solved for quite awhile, until now upon its return.

14. Datamerge QR-code cannot be colored

    When performing a datamerge, the generated QR-codes are black (C0 M0 Y0 K100) and cannot be set to another color prior to merging. This video shows the issue (and complex workaround).

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. set up a datamerge with a qr-code field in data source.
    2. try to color the QR-code any color not black (eg. using Object > Edit QR-Code > Color)
    3. execute datamerge

    Actual result:
    All QR-codes are black.

    Expected result:
    To set the color of the QR-code placeholder the same as a normal QR-code, and for the QR-codes to be colored after the merging.

15. No warning about missing links when exporting to jpeg or png

    If I have a document with a missing link, I get a warning when exporting to PDF that there are missing links. If I am exporting a jpeg or a png of the same document, I don't get any warnings at all about missing links and simply get pixelated graphics in the output.

    Exporting to a bitmap image should have the same warnings about missing links that exporting to PDF does.

    1. InDesign 18.4 (Windows), but this has been the case for several versions now.
    2. Place a graphic, then move the linked file so that it shows up as missing. Export the page/selection as png/jpeg
    3. Before exporting, a warning should pop up to say that my export contains missing links
    4. The graphic is exported without warnings, with the missing images showing up in the output as their low-res previews

16. Certain placed PDFs look fine but become strange when part of InDesign export to PDF

    InDesign version 18.3. The issue is explained thoroughly in this forum thread, with lots of example exports: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/pdf-export-messes-up-placed-pdf-and-is-affected-by-mark-bleed-settings/m-p/13957529

    Summary: If you place either of the attached PDFs (which were made in Word for Mac), and then try to make a PDF from InDesign, the black rectangle that is in the background of the content will change size unexpectedly. It will always look fine in InDesign but mess up when exported. And the degree to which it changes will vary depending on various factors like marks and bleed, which should have nothing to do with the placed PDF.

17. ID window stutters when minimizing on MacBook Air M2 running StageManager

    I know you're working on making ID run natively on the M2 chip. One glitch...when minimizing the app on my new MacBook Air M2 /Ventura, the ID window stutters as it shrinks to the desktop -- instead of smoothly moving as other apps. This happens with all my Adobe apps, but it's most noticeable with InDesign. It's a minor glitch but visually annoying.

18. Importing PDF Comments: inclusion of Sticky Notes slows InDesign down to a crawl.

    When importing PDF Comments, it is mostly a breeze until the editor/author applies a 'Sticky Note'.

    Moving through a document where 'Sticky Notes' have been added, the page, and surrounding pages, slows InDesign to a crawl and can take a few minutes to apply one change.

    While my workaround is to run through all the 'Sticky Notes' in the PDF file first and apply those changes independently before deleting them, I can then import the PDF Comments in the usual way to speed up the remaining part of the process without being hindered.

19. After Update to Indesign 18.4.: Bad Performance with anchored TextFrames and vertical jusitification

    I have a document with a text frame which is vertically justified and contains some anchored objects. Editing text in this text frame works but it is very slow in 18.4
    In version 18.3 it runs quicker.

20. PDF export wrong PDF version

    We are using InDesign server 18 to export InDesign files to PDF. The last months (since november, when we updated from 17 to 18) we are noticing that we have problems with disappearing transparancy.

    After a lot of research we found out that although the joboptions have the settings to export version 1.3, the server exports to version to a PDF 1.4. The PDF standard that is used is PDF X-1a:2003. This seems why transparancy is disappearing. I cannot reproduce this manually with the local version of InDesign I think because there is no possibility to use PDF-x1a:2003 and version 1.4 together in the local version of InDesign.

    Because we have to deliver to printing systems we need to deliver as PDF 1.3 because 1.4 most often can't be handled.

    We already reinstalled our InDesign server but the problems still appears. Now desperate what to do because it causes lots of mistakes.

    Attached you'll find a result PDF from the InDesign server. I cannot upload the joboptions and indesign file but I do have those as an example.

    I hope you have a solution soon.
