'Use Spacing' *STILL* not working for multiple pages using Page Tool
- Indesign Beta v 18.9
- Turn off Facing pages and deselect 'Allow pages to shuffle'
• create multiple pages and then 'attach' one to another, by clicking and dragging a page alongside another in the pages panel, until you see the grey 'hook' then release it, so they stick together.
• Now select multiple pages using the Page tool and the 'Use Spacing' option appears at the top. Type in a number, say, 50mm
Expected result: All pages move 50mm away from each other, and you should be able to attach as many pages together as required for the task

Generating traceable and dynamic QR codes
Currently, creating codes with InDesign is very simple, but limiting. In fact, it is not possible to trace the code or modify it once it is printed.
To create dynamic QR codes, with modifiable links after printing, it is necessary to rely on third-party websites, such as QR code generator, which however requires a paid subscription.
If instead we simply want to trace a link, we can upload it to BITLY... but always outside Adobe.
It would be useful to have all this already included in Adobe, maintaining the ease of creation, the possibility of modifying the link once your…

EPS-Import CYMK swatch LAB
InDesign 18.1, macMOS Ventura 13.1, Mac Studio M1 Max
Lesen Sie auch hier für eine sehr ausführliche Beschreibung und Lösungsansätze mit Beispieldateien:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/eps-import-wandelt-vollton-darstellung-von-lab-in-cmyk/m-p/13512387#M512258Eine Volltonfarbe, z.B. Pantone, ist in InDesign bereits angelegt. Die Darstellung der Farbe ist in LAB.
Wenn ich nun ein EPS (aus Adobe Illustrator) mit der gleichen Pantone-Farbe importiere, dann springt die Darstellung der Farbe von LAB auf CMYK um und wird dadurch wesentlich schlechter.
Das geschieht auch mit anderen Farben, z.B. ANPA.

dark interface &
Appearance dark theme not matching the settings or OS. I selected dark theme but pasteboard and window top bar light grey. It should be uniform dark.
Other issue is workspaces often does not show up after launching app requiring me to select a workspace other than my custom setting to show up on screen and only then can I select my custom workspace to have it show up. If I select my custom workspace right away after launch when no windows or tools show up nothing happens the screen stays without any panels or tools. Clearly a bug

Window resizing doesn't work in 18.1
Hi, just updated to ID 18.1 and when I go to resize the document window to make it narrower (just grabbing the right side), it resizes the entire thing – height and width, doesn't go back to the way it was properly and ends up on the bottom of the screen, instead of just making the window narrower.

Fonts search and list not working properly
Indesign doesn't let me search for fonts in the search bar of the fonts list dropdown. I can start typing, and then one font comes up, and I can't continue typing to bring up the font I want.
Also, once I start typing in the fonts bar, I can no longer use my arrow keys to scroll through the fonts list and it's very frustrating.2 votes -

Bottom toolbar/scroll bar dissapears when in fullscreen mode
At first i thought it was my monitors, but it also does it when I have InDesign open on my laptop. I'm running the latest Microsoft update, and when I select Fullscreen on the InDesign window, the bottom bar disappears, so I'm unable to use the bottom scrollbar. It only re-appears when i minimize the window

?bug re bulleted lists in v18
I have just opened an InDesign document I created in Aug 2022. I am now using InDesign v18.1 x42. It converted the document from Shivani.indd to Shivani.indd[converted], as I see it does when you open documents created in previous versions.
However, all my bulleted lists are no longer bulleted lists, they are just text, with the bullet symbol and a single space at the start of each line. When I select the text the bulleted list icon in “Bullets and Numbering” is no longer highlighted. But more of a problem is that clicking on “options” in “Bullets and Numbering” brings…

Links palette issue
Hi there;
I'm encountering a bug with the "Links" palette. Specifically, for a long list of links, the "Link info" panel doesn't preview properly, but rather overlaps the main list of links. Similarly, if a link alphabetically appears towards the bottom of the list, it isn't possible to select it from the Links palette.
Hoping this can be fixed with the next INDD update?!
