  2. Share for Review - Public Recipients Still Can't Access Without Adobe Account

    I'm using InDesign version 17.0.1. Using Share for Review, I was able to chose Public and send invitations. The recipients received the e-mail from Adobe, but if the recipient is on a computer without an Adobe account, when they click the button to access the file, it doesn't open - it will just spin for several minutes then display a File Preview Error . The instructions I have for Share for Review said that choosing Public would allow users without an Adobe account to access the file, but this does not seem to be the case. I first tested this…

  3. scrolling causes screen distortion of document pages

    Adobe Indesign 17.0.1 on a M1XMax 16" 2021 MacBook Pro. MacOS = 12.1

    When scrolling through a document, the screen becomes distorted (per the attached video screen recording). The distortion becomes worse the more you scroll. Closing and re-opening the document is a (very) temporary fix but the distortion reappears almost immediately.
    Theory: May be associated with using a 1x resolution on the screen display, rather than one of the 2x retina display resolutions.

  4. Type 1 error when opening InDesign file not reflected in Find/Replace Fonts window

    I now regularly get a pop-up blue box error message regarding Type 1 fonts in the files I'm working in. Example: "Your document contains 6 Type 1 fonts." However, if I open Find/Replace Font dialoge, the summary at top of window says "Type 1 fonts : 0". That error message is annoying AND incorrect -- unless the Find/Replace Fonts window is incorrect. Can these be updated to align their messages?
    I'm using InDesign v.17.0.1. on Windows 10 Enterprise

  6. wacom display

    I just upgraded to a Wacom 32 tablet and am having this problem only in Indesign. There are random little grey squares all over the page - and not just the file window but the entire "artboard" area. Other apps are not doing this. I've tried zooming in and out, display quality settings, nothing has helped. And it's not an image issue - it's basically a display issue. I have no idea how to fix this and I'm almost rendered unable to do at least 50% of my job as I'm not just an illustrator but a designer too. The…

  7. Variable fonts: default face location included in style list even if not included in fvar

    I sent a variable test font to Josh Hadley. It includes an fvar table that does not contain the location of the default instance. InDesign v17.0.1 on Windows will include the default location anyway in the list of styles for the font, with a made up name. Should it not restrict itself to what it finds in the fvar and STAT tables?

  8. Book file issue

    Using ID 17.0.01 x64 on Windows 11, when closing all files, but not the .indb file, the files disappear and and screen reverts to the opening screen. Under Window, the book file appears and when clicking on it, the book file shows up in the upper left hand corner of the screen. Not where I put it at the top of the right panel. Plus, it shows the last file closed wasn't saved in the book.
    Previously, the book file remained open, visible where I placed it, and the files were saved and showing saved.

    INDD 2019 v14.0.2 x64.

    I have an INDD book. I export the book to PDF and everything is fine. I export it to ePub and many things go wrong:
    (1) spacing between words goes haywire. This appears to happen when they are Small Caps.

    (2) Certain characters are missing and not rendered - for example ḷ, ṇ, ṃ, ṭ, etc.
    (3) Footnote hyperlinks are no longer working.
    (4) ToC hyperlinks are not working.

    I attach both PDF and ePub files. System doesn't let me attach epub or zip files si I renamed epub file to "Udana-Master-epub.pdf" - please change file…

  11. object style override plus-sign when multiple elements selected

    Object style made. Works fine.
    Multiple items on page need same style. When applied to ONE item, styles menu looks "normal." When applied to multiple items, with items selected, the styles menu shows plus-sign after style name.
    All of "clear overrides" options tried. Does not fix. Cannot verify that use of style is correct if styles panel gives false feedback.
    In the past, earlier versions, I don't remember ever seeing this apparent conflict.

  14. Variable font issues when exporting to PDF

    The "%" sign is showing an issue when I export to PDF. The font works with all other programs and the creators of the font have verified it is made to specification, but InDesign PDF export has an issue with it.
    Font is RobotoFlex

  15. Display bug – garbled font randomly show up

    Font display bug – garbled font weirdness

    InDesign 16.4 on macOS Big Sur 11.5.1

    When flipping through pages I get this strange font display issue. See screenshots.
    It happens randomly. Not on every page but at least once every 10 pages.

    I can simply turn preview on and off or go to the next page and back to make the page behove normally again but this should not be necessary.

    This happens with all fonts.
    This happens every day.
    This happens on my colleagues computers as well. They are running various versions of indesign of various version of MacOS.
    This…

  16. Missing or Damaged Links in 17.0.1

    Just opened file created two years ago in InDesign. Links panel shows links ok, but pages show gray rectangles. Replacing the link seems to help, except if the link is a PDF. Those are not working at all. They show up on screen as pixelated, even at high screen resolution setting; but print as gray rectangles.

  17. Missing highlight, replace, and strikethrough in browser

    Highlight, replace text, and strikethrough are missing from Chrome browser. It works in Firefox and Safari. I don't want to force my clients to use a certain browser. I'm using: macOS 10.15.7, ID 2022 (17.0.1), Chrome 97.x, Firefox 95.0.2 and Safari 15.2.
    I see this issue has come up for others as well but never really resolved. Please help.

  18. Notes anchor marks are rendered incorrectly

    When I place a note, it affects the text box as it's rendered as a normal character.
    That is - it affects the leading, the spacing, the alignment, etc.

    For instance, if I have a top-aligned text box with a paragraph with letter size 9pt, and I place a note somewhere in the paragraph - the entire paragraph will shift downward - as the alignment takes the top of the note anchor as the topmost "pixel" in the text box.

    There is no way this is desirable. Who would want notes to affect their document layout? So I have to…

  19. Multiple PDF export

    Hi,
    I have a 2020 6 core iMac with 32GB RAM and I was used to do multiple exports to PDF at one time ... I could open up to 4 files and run exports on them and those exports ran at the same time ... more than 4 simultaneous exports did not work, but i was fine with 4 :)
    Today I noticed it does not work anymore for me? What happend? I have the latest MacOS 12.1 Monterey and also the latest InDesign ...
    I run the first export and the others are queuing...

  20. text

    My text changes to alternating capital and lower case letters throughout all typed words. It does not change if I have caps lock on the keyboard but will be all caps if I select it on the menu bar. But it still shows red spelling errors with asking to add the work to the dictionary. It is shown in alternating caps/lower case letters there too.
