Bug: Indesign randomly doesn't save
System: Windows 19, Indesign 17.1
Steps to reproduce (though the trigger of this problem isn't known):
1. Open a file, change something. The asterisk next to the file name marks there are unsaved changes.
2. Hit Ctrl+s, then Ctrl+w to close. It will ask you to save again.
3. Cancel that requester and hit Ctrl+s again, plus Ctrl+w. The same.
4. Cancel again, then use the menu entry "Save", then hit Ctrl+w. Same story.The asterisk remains and ID also doesn't lock as it usually does when saving (I'm not network, saving files take a few seconds). In this situation…

CC library issues - errors importing and no browser sync
I am using Adobe Cloud v17.3 and have 2 related issues:
When I try to import a CC library, it doesn't fully import. Only a few items appear.
This library has been successfully imported on other occasions, so I am confused.I have built another CC library within my InDesign environment. When I try to view it online, it says that I don't have any libraries?!

Strange blanks – personalization
I have a table that I use for data merge. There are empty cells in it: an academic title that not everyone has
Example
Salutation: Dear
Academic title: Dr.
Last name: MillerI I only have one text field, which makes things difficult for personalization for people who don't have an academic title:
" <<Salutation>> <<Academic Title>> <<Surname>> " --> " Dear Dr. Miller"
In the place where the academic title should be, these blanks appear, which can only be removed manually. With a list of 1,000 invitations, this is an enormous amount of time.
Via Search/Replace I cannot find…

InDesign display shift problems
- Version: InD 17.3 x64, in Windows 10 Enterprise, Intel(R) Xeon(R) W-10885M CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz, 128GB RAM. I'm halfway wondering if having the system's display scaling set to 125% is disagreeing with the InD app....
- Steps causing issue: Make edits on a page with text frames and placed graphics.
- Expectation: Layout items render normally.
- Result: Sections of layout display shift by several pixels, creating broken display of layout. Uploading mild examples (part of top edge of graphic has shifted; section of edges of frames has shifted). Often lines of text are half cut off by the effect. Can happen…

Pages panel doesn't show scroll wheel
The scroll wheel on the pages panel is not showing up and my pages are all off to the right side. Restarting indesign does not fix this issue and restarting the computer also does not fix this issue.

High resolutiom
DEAR ADOBE!
I have a problem with Indesign that can not display images in high-resolution-mode.
All pictures turn black and striped. The problem started after upgrading to Monteray 12.4
I have already been in contact with your support via chat for two hours.
It looked promising, but when they then restarted my computer via remote control,
I lost contact with you and have not been able to give feedback since.
I am VERY disappointed and want help with this as soon as possible with someone who speaks

Appliquer des gabarit à des pages selon des conditions
Bonjour, après de longues recherches, je remarque qu'il n'y a aucune possibilité d'appliquer des gabarits selon des règles (présence de texte, grep, présence d'image, pourcentage du bloc de texte rempli, présence d'un style, etc.) à des pages spécifiques (à la première/dernière page, entre certaines pages, fonctionnement similaire au grep, etc.). On pourrait réaliser cela en donnant plusieurs gabarits à une page et donner des règles pour choisir lequel appliquer (avec une option pour choisir les pages de manière dynamique).
Pour ma part, je cherche désespérément un moyen dynamique et automatisé de cacher le folio/numéro de page lorsque que c'est une…1 vote -
InDesign Share for Review @mentions are not sending emails to the contributors
People are leaving comments with the @mention option but the @person is not receiving those comments in email so they don't know that the comment was made.

Package doesn't include some fonts
When a supplied InDesign package with ALL necessary Document Fonts is re-packaged for distribution NOT ALL of those Fonts previously included will be re-packaged.
So, pretty much after the new package is created you have to compare the Document Fonts folders between the 2 to see which fonts are missing, or look through the new packaged document to see which ones are indeed missing.

InDesign running very slow while using Google Drive on macOS Monterey
I am using InDesign CC 2022 (v17.3.0.61 Apple Silicon supported) with Google Drive for desktop (59.0.3.0 Apple Silicon supported) on a MacBook Air (M1, 2020) and macOS Monterey 12.4 (21F79).
Google Drive uses the File Provider API supported by macOS Monterey 12.3 and later, but when the CPU usage of the macOS fileproviderd process increases, InDesign runs very slowly. Even mouse clicks on objects, menus, panels, etc. take tens of seconds from input to acceptance.
When the Google Drive file sync completes or pause, InDesign returns to its original behavior a short time later as the load on the fileproviderd…

Find Font bug when multiple fonts begin with same name
When a document contains multiple fonts with same family names (e.g. Arial and Arial Hebrew), the search font dialog box only makes available one of the fonts (e.g. if I want to search Arial, even if I select Arial in the available fonts in the search dialog box, the Search Font line will automatically show Arial hebrew so i can't just find Arial. I also have the same problems with multiple Helvetica Family fonts.

Hyperlinks In Document Not Linking Out
I am working in InDesign 17.3.
I can create and update the Share for Review link itself but all hyperlinks within the document won't work. The hyperlinks show up as links in the document and online (blue, underline) but when you click on them they don't do anything. You can't right click to get options to open in a new tab or copy the link.
The links work when you export as a PDF or publish online but not when you do Share for Review.

Image copyright notice in EPUB exported images removed by ID
If you create an InDesign ePub that contains images with copyright notices, inspection of the exported image files within the EPUB (ie. OEBPS/image/*) shows that the embedded images have had the copyright notice removed.
Ideally, copyright messages should be retained throughout the export process.
The TIFF source file has an IPTC Copyright message.

InDesign responsiveness is very slow
All the adobe apps are working fine aside from InDesign. It keeps on crashing when I am working and when it is not, the response is so slow. Tried to re-install but did not really help at all.

Caption Metadata in Text Variables
InDesign version 17.3
A Metadata Caption set in Text Variables can be on a layer separate from an image. In my workflow, this is good!Unfortunately, InDesign treats images on layers that are turned off as if they are on, and hence a text box containing a Metadata Caption is presented with multiple images to read from and delivers the message <Multiple intersecting links>.
I discovered this by having a square image on one layer and a 4:3 image on another layer, a layer turned off. When the text box containing the caption touched the top or bottom of the…
