1. Faulty save facility when updating cross references across a book

   When using the update cross-references on the Book panel of CC2020, it opens each chapter, it then updates the references, but then asks you to save and overwrite the chapter that it has updated. Maybe this is suitable for some, but I find it is frustrating when you have to agree to the file's same name and then agree to overwrite when you have over 20 chapters to go through every single time I update cross-references.

   CC2019 used to open, update and save the chapters without questioning you. Maybe this is an option I have missed under Preferences.

   Kind regards

2. Easier automatic page numbering

   Make it easier to create automatic page numbering in InDesign. I would not have remembered to select the text frame, then navigate to TYPE > INSERT SPECIAL CHARACTERS > MARKERS > CURRENT PAGE NUMBER if it weren't for Google. This feature should not be an obscure tool, and should not be buried in panels. I feel like this feature should at least be in the Master Page Panel's drop down options (from the hamburger).

3. "Go back on roll over" interactive button state checked/greyed out

   I was working on an interactive project and found that the "go back on roll over" option becomes turned on and greyed out so you cannot un-check the box when adding an "upon release" action to a button. I initially could NOT figure out why this was happening, and it was totally screwing up my on-click actions in my project.

   Eventually, I think I figured out that it seems to happen when you create a button, add an "on roll over" action and check the box "go back on roll off", then create ANOTHER action (like "on click"), and then DELETE the original "on roll over" action. If you go and look at your "on click" or "on release" action you created, the "go back on roll off" box is showing and is checked and is greyed out so you cannot edit that option.

   "Go back on roll over" seems like something that should be SOLELY associated with roll over actions, and should be disabled as soon as you delete/remove ANY roll over actions you have created.

   I finally figured out how to fix it, which involved adding an additional roll over action to the button as well, deleting my original "on release" action, deleting the roll over action, and then RE-adding the "on release" action again.

   It took me about 30 minutes to hack this, but it's obviously a problem.

   You should really consider working on your interactivity problems, as more and more people are using InDesign for digital publishing, especially those who are working on print projects that also need to be converted into digital formats.

4. Better Text Box Controls

   Could the in port and out port boxes be shifted slightly away from the bounding box corners? They’re currently positioned very close to the resize handles, which makes it harder to resize text frames — a much more frequent action than linking text.

   While you're at it, please expand the interactive area around bounding box handles so the cursor stays in Scale mode slightly farther from the corners, reducing accidental switches to the Rotate tool when resizing objects.

5. Indesign cuts off effects on PDF Export

   InDesign cuts off effects on PDF Exports if they get too large. (Also to mention... menues look different fot Font or Object Effects... someone realigned one of them and forgot the others.)

   Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server: CC 2017.1 with Tablefix
   Steps to reproduce the issues: Create a new Document that's wide enough e.g. 5000mm (happend to us on a big Banner) – Write Text - Use Effect "Bevel" - Export to PDF and watch it fail.
   Expected result: A Text with the applied effect
   Actual result: The Effect gets cut off (we almost printed a job like this...)
   Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional): see Attachments

6. Data Merge panel doesn't import UTF-8 data when selecting "UTF-8" encoding option

   I’m using Adobe InDesign v. 20.5.0.48 on the macOS v. 15.6.1. I have a “merge.csv” data file encoded in UTF-8 that imports into the Data Merge panel when I select “ASCII” as the encoding but, unsurprisingly, doesn’t display some special characters correctly. When I select “UTF-8” as the encoding option, which should remedy this problem, the file fails to import!

7. Unable to type the í character

   When typing, inDesign doesn't receive the í character. On the Hungarian keyboard the í can be entered as AltGr+J. When typing the text, and pressing AltGr+J, sometimes the í doesn't appears, but the Paragraph options dialog pops up. Pressing one more time the AltGr+J types the í. This is a problem in the newer versions, in the CS6 version this wasn't a problem.

8. Layer comps not working with Indesign on PC

   A 32 grouped layered file originally drawn in Clip studio paint, added layer comps in Photoshop does either:
   - upon placement place correctly but does not allow the changing of object layer options. OLO has a empty grey preview and does NOT change the image after pressing ok.
   - upon "update links" crashed indesign or gives the error "cannot place this image, unsupported color space" (same image as above which DID place)

   I have tried to:
   - move the layers to a new file, same effect
   - opened other files similarly made which work
   - tried this on a MAC which worked
   - had a friend try this on her PC, which didn't work till she changed her color space settings to what I have. Her saved file from that photoshop did not work and gave the same results

   File is 1.2gb, 32 grouped layers, 32 layer comps, CMYK, default color spaces as far as I can tell

9. Adjust Layout Moves Locked Guides when "Adjust Locked Content" Option is Disabled

   Locked guides that overlap the page margins move when using Adjust Layout while "Adjust Locked Content" is unchecked.

   Expected behavior: Locked guides shouldn't move when using Adjust Layout unless "Adjust Locked Content" is checked. Unlocked guides should move regardless of the option being checked.

   Steps to reproduce:
   Add ruler guides to a page that overlap the page margins
   Lock guides "View > Grids & Guides > Lock Guides"
   Open "Layout > Margins & Columns"
   Enable "Adjust Layout" and uncheck "Adjust Locked Content"
   Increase or decrease the size of a margin that overlaps the guide

   I haven't found any workaround for this bug and it's a major hinderance when adjusting the layout of many pages simultaneously as I have to manually re-adjust the guides on each page.

10. Object style size property crashes InDesign when used with Libraries

    I have recreated this bug on both Mac and PC InDesign 13.0

    1. Create a text box
    2. Insert a table with any number of table cells
    3. Draw a rectangle anywhere
    4. Create a new Object Style and set Size and Position Options -> Size -> Adjust: to Height Only
    5. Apply the Object Style to the rectangle
    6. Cut and past the rectangle into one of the cells of the table
    7. Create a new Library file
    8. Drag the text box into the Library
    9. Try drag the Library item back out onto the page... It should crash.

    This has become very problematic for us because we use the Libraries a lot for commonly used table designs. We are having to avoid the new Size Options in Object Styles. It seemed like a good feature that we had been waiting for... But not working for us yet.

    I have attached a Library file with an item that will crash InDesign 13

11. Menu et fonctions invisibles

    Lorsque je clique sur les fonctions d'InDesign dans le menu, les panneaux sont invisibles. Je ne les vois pas mais quand je clique plus bas, ça clique sur les options du panneaux.
    Même problème pour le click droit, rien ne s'affiche mais quand je descend et clique là où devrait apparaitre le menu, ça clique sur les fonctions.

    C'est très handicapant, je ne peux pas travailler.

12. 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. I cannot find in help pages or anywhere online how to activate this feature. Please help or fix.

14. AI Generated Alt Text Overriding Manual Alt Text

    I have Generative AI disabled on my Mac and had manually entered alt-text on 2 images. Another user in my organisation, who had not disabled it, made some minor text amends on my file and my atl-text was overwritten.

    I feel that any image that already has alt-text manually added should not be altered by this feature.

    Also it would be good that when the feature is turned on it could have an option to only affect images added to the Articles Panel as that is the most common way of setting the tag order.

15. Embedded PDF/AI images causes documents created from IDMLs to double in size

    File size almost doubles when exporting an INDD document to IDML and then re-save it as an INDD if it has embedded PDF or AI images.

    Create a new InDesign document.
    Place a PDF/AI image in it.
    Embed the image in the InDesign file.
    Save the InDesign file.
    Export the InDesign file to IDML.
    Open the IDML and save it as an INDD document.

    The resulting INDD document will have a file size of almost double the size of the original INDD document. This affects all versions of InDesign (CS6-CC2019) and embedded PDFs created in different applications (Illustrator, Acrobat, Preview).

    If this is caused by an extra preview of the image being attached to the INDD document, there should at least be an option to "trim" the INDD document.

    Attached are three test documents: original, IDML and the resulting INDD document.

    File size almost doubles when exporting an INDD document to IDML and then re-save it as an INDD if it has embedded PDF or AI images.

    Create a new InDesign document.
    Place a PDF/AI image in it.
    Embed the image in the InDesign file.
    Save the InDesign file.
    Export the InDesign file to IDML.
    Open the IDML and save it as an INDD document.

    The resulting INDD document will have a file size of almost double the size of the original INDD document. This affects all versions of InDesign (CS6-CC2019) and embedded PDFs created in different applications (Illustrator, Acrobat, Preview).

16. postscript file

    Print dialog set to print 3 x 3 thumbnails. I selected Postscript File in the Printer menu, and it blocked the thumbnails options. I saved the .ps file, but it was not usable:

    When the file was converted [whether with Acrobat Distiller or Preview], the layout was for a vertical page layout, with the right page of each spread cut off.

    Question: How can I create a usable Postscript or PDF file for thumbnails?

17. Data Merge – PDF-Image Error

    Hi there
    We have the alarming situation, that we did some data merge with a bill in it which is set up as a image (PDF). We did a PDF for the costumer to check the personalization.
    Afterwards we did made the PDF for printing.
    Thats were the problem started, because the PDF of the bill was getting importet wrong. in the firstplace we imported the PDF with the Mediabox but since we edited some other files and placed some other PDF with trimbox the setting was saved in the indd presets and on the data merge we got the situation that on exporting the PDF the MediaBox was changed to the Cropbox, and so the pdf was getting enlarged to cover the same space as the PDF did. so some information got cropped by the Printing size.

    it can’t be that the importing option of a already placed PDF is changed. this is really dangerous!

    Tested on INDD V18.5 and V19.0

18. Missing glyphs in a Right-to-Left Paragraph direction

    1. InDesign Middle Eastern Version 18.4.0.56

    2. Steps to reproduce the issues:
       a. In Preferences>Composition>Highlight, turn on Highlight for missing glyphs.
       b. Type in a text box open and closing parenthesis.
       c. Toggle between Right-to-Left and Left-to-Right Paragraph direction.

    3. Expected result: Missing glyphs should not be affected by paragraph direction.

    4. Actual result: When the direction becomes Right-to-Left the parenthesis are highlights as missing glyphs.

    Additional Information:
    If you type one Hebrew letter before and after the parenthesis, the parenthesis will be highlighted with missing glyphs also on Left to Right Paragraph direction.

    I tried with various fonts, all behave the same. Today was the first time I noticed it. It happened with a document that I edit all the time (and also a new one I created to test it) when I selected a different paragraph style. I then got a message that there are missing glyphs. I turned on the highlight option and suddenly I notices that all my parenthesis are highlighted in yellow for missing glyphs. I believe it is a bug of the latest version.

    1. InDesign Middle Eastern Version 18.4.0.56

    2. Steps to reproduce the issues:
       a. In Preferences>Composition>Highlight, turn on Highlight for missing glyphs.
       b. Type in a text box open and closing parenthesis.
       c. Toggle between Right-to-Left and Left-to-Right Paragraph direction.

    3. Expected result: Missing glyphs should not be affected by paragraph direction.

    4. Actual result: When the direction becomes Right-to-Left the parenthesis are highlights as missing glyphs.

    Additional Information:
    If you type one Hebrew letter before and after the parenthesis, the parenthesis will be highlighted with missing glyphs also on Left to Right Paragraph direction.

19. packaged files not preserving paths

    In latest release of Adobe InDesign 16.2.1 for Mac 10.14.6, an issue occurred when updating a file PACKAGED from an earlier version of InDesign.

    Issue was:
    Document contained tifs and jpgs that contained work paths. In original document, work paths had been used to clip the images.
    However, when document was PACKAGED and then opened in ID16.2.1, the paths have not been preserved. They are still in the photoshop file and can be updated by replacing or relinking the image and showing image options to apply the path information, but this is potentially a catastrophic issue for providers like ourselves who have never seen the artwork before and have no point of comparision between clients expectations vs how the file opened on our machines.

    Worth noting that files were packaged with IDML files that did not feature this bug.

    Another issue complicating matters was that the packaged file that we received (not necessarily packaged like this) had an .idlk file supplied as well, so may be original operator error.

20. Paint and lines disappear

    Indesign 2023, Mac OS 12 Monterey (other similar reports in Catalina and win10)

    Phenomenon
    Fill and line disappears when copying an object.

    Reproduction procedure
    1. Select an object with fill and line to surround it with the direct selection tool.
    2. Grab the anchor point and copy by option+drag.
    3. The object without fill or line is copied.

    The same result can be obtained by selecting an object to enclose with the direct selection tool, and then copying with the Object menu > Transform > Move.
    If you select an object by clicking directly on the fill area without surrounding it with the direct selection tool, the fill and lines are copied as they were (expected result).

    I would like the original object to be copied as is, just like in Illustrator.

    The circle that appears around the cursor is due to a utility and is displayed when clicking.
    The fact that nothing is displayed in the middle of a drag copy is probably a problem with the screen recording function.

    Indesign 2023、 Mac OS 12 Monterey（他にCatalinaやwin10でも同様の報告あり）

    現象
    オブジェクトをコピーした際に、塗りと線が消える。

    再現手順
    1.塗りや線のあるオブジェクトをダイレクト選択ツールで囲むように選択。
    2.アンカーポイントを掴んで、option+ドラッグでコピー。
    3.塗りも線もないオブジェクトがコピーされる。

    ダイレクト選択ツールで囲むように選択し、オブジェクトメニュー>変形>移動　のコピーでも同様の結果になる。
    ダイレクト選択ツールで囲まずに、直接塗り部分をクリックして選択した場合は塗りも線も元のままコピーされる（期待した動作結果）

    Illustratorと同様に、元オブジェクトがそのままコピーされるようにして欲しいです。

    カーソルの周りに出る円は、ユーティリティによるものでクリックした際に表示されるものです。
    ドラッグコピーの途中で何も表示されていないのは、画面収録機能の不具合だと思われます。
