  2. TEXT EDIT

    > >When I try to edit text I now always have to double click on text box twice as the first time doesn't work. This is incredibly frustrating and time consuming. I have tried all of the suggestions on the adobe forums including re-installing and turning off type contextual controls but nothing works. A separate issue that has come up is my InDesign keeps crashing when i try to add rows to a table. > >

  6. Ghost text

  8. Text box disappears when text converted to outlines

    > >Many sign printers require that all text is converted to outlines. When I do, any text box that has a colour defined disappears. I need to duplicate the box first and delete the text in the underlying box, then convert the above text to outlines. A bit of an arduous process.> >This shouldn't happen – it's been an issue for years.> >Can you please change it so that converting text to outlines doesn't alter the graphics – that is, the coloured and/or stroked text box remains?> >Thanks!> >

  10. Text disappearing while editing

    > >On my MacBook Air when I use InDesign and I am editing text it frequently disappears then when I zoom in again it will reappear. It only ever disappears from view, it is never lost but still very annoying. It will do this about every 4 words I type.> >

  12. idml shifts images in bounding boxes

    > >PLEASE FIX THIS. > >We send both indd and idml file formats to asian print suppliers. depending on the adobe version the supplier is using we are finding images can shift within bounding boxes - cutting them off at the crop. Or text frames reduce – cutting off copy. This is an incredibly expensive discovery if it not caught in pre-press. > >My team is sending hundreds of files a year to Asian printer suppliers. this bug occurs in about 1 out of a hundred files. > >PLEASE FIX THIS.> >

  13. Text disappears when creating buttons if text wrap is on

    > >I am using the lastest version of Adobe InDesign 18.5> >Try to create a button including a more than one text box. Nothing overlaps. The text boxes have text wrapping applied. Group the elements and create button.> >Create a "rollover" appearance state.> >The text will disappear as if something is causing it to wrap and there is not room for the text even though there is nothing for the text to wrap around.> >The text should not disappear when creating buttons using text boxes that include a text wrap.> >

  20. Can't accept "highlighted" text (with replacement text) using Import PDF Comments

    > >For years I have taught my clients to not use insert or strike through, simply because they are hard to see and click on, especially on a laptop. I much prefer the old school way, highlighted text, with an attached replacement text. Now with Import PDF comments, I see them but can't accept them. Can you make that work?> INDD 14.0.2, MacOS 10.14.5, iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015)> >
