pdf display default
When I try to export an InDesign file in PDF, it automatically saves it as a 2-page folder booklet.
The display and layout options in Export to PDF are "default" and cannot be changed to "1 page".
How can I change this and have a regular 1-page document?1 vote -
After adjusting a link and renewing it, indesign fits automatically fits it to frame
I did notice that the link options weren't turned on properly but i turned them on and the result was the same.
Also figured it might have to to with the auto-fit option but i double checked and it's not turned on... this is super annoying. I'm honestly afraid that it'll juggle everything about when i make a minor change.....1 vote -
Bullet/number markers included in adjacent hyperlinked text when exported as HTML
When exporting content containing bulleted/numbered lists to HTML (using the Bullets/Numbers: Convert to Text option in HTML Export Options), bulleted or numbered list item markers that are immediately followed by hyperlinked text get included with the text inside an <a /> tag. It would be more predictable (and easier to format with CSS) if the bullet/number markers remained outside of the <a /> tag.

bug: start/end line not clickable in Indesign
Indesign 16.3.2, Apple Silicon M1 chip, MacBook Pro macOS Big Sur 11.5
I've discovered a bug. When I try to click on the option to add a start or end to a line, the option disappears directly. So it's not possible to click on one of the options. Right now I can't add a arrow to the end of my line. I hope it will be fixed really soon!

Endnote Font Size Problems
Version: InDesign 14
Steps: When placing an endnote in a frame "Loaded by Place Curser", the font size used for the end note does not honor the font size determined by the style. This includes when the paragraph style is set in the endnote options, as well as when the paragraph style is applied by selecting the endnote text.
- Create endnote style, and set it in endnote options
- Set endnote text frame to "loaded by place curser" in endnote options
- Add an endnote to the text, and place endnote text frame
- The Endnote text added to this frame does…
1 voteThanks for reporting the issue.
How are you adding the Endnote text to the frame? Are you copying text and pasting it? If so, have you tried using ‘Paste without formatting’?
Please provide the information that is sought by Payal.Ravi Kiran

Not all fonts are collected in a package.
This is for InDesign 14.0.2 x64
To reproduce the issue, package any file and be sure the include fonts option is ON.
Expected result is, as it ever was, that all fonts used in the document will be included in the "Fonts" folder of the resulting packaged file.
Actual result is that some or all of the fonts are omitted.

[Copyright-Notice] Automatic Caption for images
When creation an automatic caption for images it is possible to chose the option "Copyright" but this actually referts to the IPTC - Core "Source" (Quelle) and not the "Copyright - Notice" which is used by Adobe Stock.
So it is not possible to automaticly use the Adobe Stock Copyright notice because InDesign seems to read the wrong MetaData field.

Hide Frame Edges
I'm working on Windows 11. I'm not sure what the InDesign version is but I just bought it two days ago.
Everything has been smooth so far but when I needed to hide the Frame Edges I met this issue. From what I found out there are two options: View > Extras > Hide Frame Edges or simply Ctrl + H
Neither case worked.

GenAI Image location
GenAI Images are automatically saved to the User's iCloud Documents folder. This causes a major issue if projects are shared with other users in that the GenAI Images may not get copied across, resulting in broken links.
Another issue this creates is that if the User's iCloud storage is full, new images will not be created.
There needs to be an option, either in the Preferences or the Links panel, for users to select where GenAI Images are stored.
Please implement this.4 votes -

book sync object-format does not work as it should
InDesign CC 2018 (13.1)
MacOSX 10.12.6Hello
We often use the InDesign book functionality for very large and complex documents. In these documents we use also a nested/grouped object for images containing a frame for image caption and a frame for the image. Where the caption frame does not have a contour, the frame for the image has a contour. For every frame we have created an appropriate named object format. As long we use this nested/grouped objects in a single document, the appropriate object formats work as espected. When we use a clone of this "master" document for further…

Version: 15.0.2
Steps to reproduce the issues:

print dialog offset greyed out
The offset, gap and transverse options in the Setup section of the Print Dialog are not greyed out and so available. I tried various document presents, print presets and printers - and no matter what settings are selected these features remain greyed out.
