2. In the "Share for editing": Track changes feature required

   Since many people are going to work on the "Share for editing" feature, there needs to be a log of what changes are made on the cloud so that the designed within INdesign is aware of it once the changes are synced

3. Justification Alternates (jalt) ignored by the HarfBuzz World-Ready shaping workflow

   In the recent InDesign versions Adobe has introduced HarfBuzz as the default text shaping engine but the Justification alternates feature is now not working in OpenType fonts at all, we have confirmed it by testing with several Arabic fonts. For Adobe legacy text rendering engine this feature still works seamlessly but not for Harfbuzz
   It has disturbed all the Arabic users past documents.

   I have attached a test Arabic document with Adobe Naskh font, as this font has justification alternates feature.

   Apply the World-Ready Paragraph Composer.
   Justify the Arabic paragraph.
   In Arabic Enabled InDesign set the Insert Kashidas to: None (image attached)
   Enable Justification Alternates. (image attached)

   Compare the broken result under HarfBuzz with the correct result under Legacy Text Shaping.

4. Screen does not refresh in all cases

   Every now and then, InDesign shows things in a previous state, which is very confusing.
   E..g. when adding a page break, the break is added, but the text remains, until the document is scrolled. The screen does not seem to refresh after this action.

   I am on a Mac Studio M3 Ultra, InDesign 21.4

5. Cursore cambia in clessidra

   Versone 21.4 x 64
   Il cursore si trasforma in clessidra e resta così per tutto il tempo rendendo impossibile comprendere ad esempio i punti di input del testo.
   Ho provato ad installare nuovamente il software ma il problema è sempre lì.
   Credo anche che sia correlato alla presenza di immagini nel documento poichè mi pare che a volte inizi da quando si inseriscono immagini.

   Per favore aiuto perché non si riesce a lavorare così.

   Grazie

10. Rolling cursor in InDesign

    I completely get how incredibly irritating that is, especially when you have a strict deadline to hit and the software is just stuck spinning. The constant rolling cursor in InDesign is usually caused by the program getting trapped in a loop, trying to calculate or locate something in the background over and over again.
    Here are the fastest ways to force InDesign to stop lagging so you can

11. Flex Layout is unusable

    Flex Layout feature is unusable. Not once did it work like intended. Just as an example. I just tried it again with 40 images that were dropped arranged in a grid with the intent of just standardizing the gutters quickly. But it just scrambled the order randomly. It is mind bugling. This should be feature number one. Figma Auto Layout is way better.

13. Pages panel not scrolling to allow all pages to be accessible

    InDesign v21.3 (Updated last week, no issues until today. Daily use)

    This morning when I opened InDesign, I discovered I was unable to scroll and select the last page of the document. The top half of the last page is visible through the bottom bar of the panel where the number of pages is displayed but unclickable. This prevents a change of parent page style, addition of pages in the correct parent style or the selection to override the parent page style.

    I have tried resetting my workspace, restarting Indesign and changing panel views. The bottom row remains elusive.

15. Linked Illustrator Files Not Displaying Correctly in InDesign

    We are experiencing an issue where Illustrator (.ai) files with linked assets are not displayed correctly when placed in InDesign.

    InDesign does not properly render or recognize the linked content inside the Illustrator file, which affects preview and output accuracy. Currently, the only workaround is to embed all links in Illustrator before placing the file, which increases file size and slows down the workflow.

    Please advise if there is a fix or recommended workflow for handling linked assets between Illustrator and InDesign.

17. Cropped content inside frames becomes visible on older mobile PDF viewers.

    I found a rendering issue in InDesign 2021 (and potentially newer versions). When an image or PDF is placed inside a frame (cropped), the content outside the frame boundaries is still being rendered on older mobile devices' PDF viewers.

    Steps to reproduce:

    • Place a large PDF/Image inside a smaller InDesign frame.
    • Export as a standard PDF (Interactive or Print - High Quality).
    • View the PDF on an older smartphone (e.g., older Android/iOS built-in viewers).
    • The "hidden" parts outside the frame are visible.

    The content outside the frame should be completely clipped or removed from the render stream to ensure privacy and visual consistency across all devices.

    Exporting as PDF/X-1a:2001 solves the issue because it flattens the transparency/layers.

18. InDesign refuses to run if it can't verify our license ONE TIME, wasting a full day of work.

    First off, you're missing a bug category: LICENSING

    Now the real defect: InDesign refuses to launch if it can't contact the license server ONCE. So... if you're on a long-distance flight and have a bunch of work to do, YOU CAN'T. There is no excuse for this. Any competent software will run temporarily in that instance.

    Furthermore, we have a fully-paid license. There is no reason for the software to check its license any more frequently than the billing cycle. At every check, the server should report to the software what the end of the currently-paid period is and the software will run without connection until then. And even then, the software should function for AT LEAST A DAY if it is offline.

    This should NEVER happen to a paying customer.
