1. Power Efficiency

   Since I've moved to working remotely entirely, I've noticed how quickly using several Adobe programs burns through my laptop battery. I'm running a brand new 16" Macbook Pro with the latest MacOS Catalina version, and I'm lucky if I get an hour and a half of battery life while running InDesign and Illustrator at the same time. When I review what is using the most battery life, my Mac lists InDesign, Illustrator, and Core Sync as the main culprits.

   Now, I understand that these programs at times are fairly graphically intensive, but the battery life I'm getting is absymal, and I'm not even currently working on artwork that is using a lot of complex effects; we're talking basic shape and stroke icons and simple text and shape layouts.

   Can you please work on optimizing the programs to prevent excessive battery draining? Core Sync in particular is really confusing; what exactly is it doing? I've even paused file syncing, but that hasn't seemed to do anything.

2. InDesign very slow after update to 16.0 (x64), especially data merge

   Opening the app takes well over half a minute, used to be within 5 sec. Closing with save can take over a minute for a single master page with three variable placeholders. The app feels sluggish to use and there is a visible delay after performing any action, ranging between a fraction of a second and a few seconds.

   This last one has always been the case, but after update it is even worse: exporting a PDF using data merge renders the machine unusable. Mouse cursor moves with visible skips and lengthy delay between those skips, regardless of complexity of the job. Any action takes forever to perform. It is especially egregious with variable images, but even tiny static PDF backgrounds placed on master pages will cause the same issue. This has always been bad, but never this bad prior to 16.0.

   No third party plugins are installed, some files are accessed via the local network, but the connectivity is fast and should under no circumstances be a bottleneck - we work with multiple image processing tools and only Creative Cloud causes grief.

   CPU is a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core, 3.6 Ghz, 16 GB of RAM. And none of the system resources are being used to the fullest during rendering (snippet attached) - there is literally no valid justification for the operating system being rendered unusable.

3. Word Import | BUG | Diacritic characters change language and formatting

   Hi together,
   if a Word docx or doc document contains text in italics that are not formatted using a character style diacritic characters will import to InDesign with:

   [1] Wrong language property. Instead of e.g. English (US) it will be Arabic
   [2] Formatting is in "Regular" and not in "Italic"

   For more details see this thread at the Adobe InDesign Forum:

   italics dropped for diacritic characters when importing Word docs
   davescottpeattie, Jan 26, 2023
   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/italics-dropped-for-diacritic-characters-when-importing-word-docs/td-p/13531639

   Also see my reply in the same thread for some sample screenshots and attached documents:

   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/italics-dropped-for-diacritic-characters-when-importing-word-docs/m-p/13532786#M512947

   Also note that the Word Import allows the creation of several character styles with no names and no properties in the recieving document! At best this is a disturbing thing…

   A workaround for that specific case was to copy/paste formatted from Word to InDesign.

4. Optimize Indesign for Ultra Chipset

   Please optimize Adobe Indesign / Acrobat for the Apple M1 / M2 Ultra Chipset. We work with huge files with several big images, but when we check the activity of the unit, it only uses only half of the cores and the machine is far away from the limit. But still just export a pdf or reload some images take super long time.

5. IDML export breaks structure when there is a tagged single row table at the start of a story

   When exporting an InDesign document to IDML and re-opening it, a specific set of conditions causes the tag applied to a table to be incorrectly reordered in the XML structure, and an extraneous <Table> tag to be inserted.

   This issue occurs when the table is a single-row table and is the very first element in the story (no preceding text or content). This bug disrupts the intended tag hierarchy, breaking workflows that depend on accurate XML structure.

   Steps to Reproduce:

   1. Create a new InDesign document.
   2. Create a text frame on the page.
   3. Within the text frame, insert a table.
   4. a. Ensure the table is the very first element in the story (before any other text or content).
   5. b. Set the table to have only one row.
   6. Apply a tag to the table (in my example CustomTable).
   7. Export to IDML
   8. Open the IDML
   9. Open the Structure Panel and examine the structure. You will observe the following:
   10. a. The "CustomTable" tag now appears before a <Table> tag representing the table. The expected order is the <CustomTable> tag encapsulating, the cells.
   11. b. The "CustomTable" tag is before the actual table in the story, without any content inside of it.

   Expected Result:
   The structure of the document should be maintained after exporting to IDML and re-opening.

   Actual Result:
   The custom tag appears before the table and a <Table> tag is added to the structure, disrupting the intended structure of the XML.

   Environment:
   InDesign 2024 (19.5)
   InDesign 2025 (20.1)
   Windows 11

6. Bugs with Whitespaces in Justification’s Composer when work with Thai language and other issues

   As my report on bug with text wrapping in 2020 version (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/38998636-bug-with-world-ready-composer-when-use-space-like). Many of issues were fixed, but some still remain.
   .
   Before going to the issue in the title of the post, I want to specify some issue that doesn’t fix form my last report. If you see on the attachment img 02, you will see the issue about text encoding (it just only my suspicion) that happen when you just copy and paste text (specifically in Thai) form 2020 version to 2019 or to another text editor. After I had pasted text into TextEdit (you can find “Copy And Paste Text form Selection Text.txt” in attachment) almost vowels and tone marks were changed into quotation marks that which made me suspicious about text encoding in that language.
   .
   I do not know that this issue has a relative to the issue in question. The white spaces. As you can see in “img 01” in attachment (and on Indesign file which was also attached) on the text where I high-lighted.
   .
   First, you can see white space play as a character in the beginning of the line, like other white spaces such as thin-space. And you also see, when applied paragraph with Adobe World Ready Composer, either single line and paragraph, spaces other than whitespace that insert form space bar play as character on the end of the line when you apply text justify. In an example I shown to you, en-space did not collapse. It stilled as a character.
   .
   Other than that, you can see the close parenthesis was sole wrapped into the next line, even it should stayed with the last word.
   .
   Nearly half year, after you had claimed that Indesign support Thai, I still cloud’t update into 2020 version because of all these fatal issues.

   As my report on bug with text wrapping in 2020 version (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/38998636-bug-with-world-ready-composer-when-use-space-like). Many of issues were fixed, but some still remain.

7. character style list flashes but won't open

   Sometimes, ID gets into a state where the Character Style drop-down list will not drop down. I can click either the list item itself or the little [v] button to its right, nothing happens. If I click it again, the screen will just flash open the list for just an instant, but it will not drop down the list and let me select from it. The only workaround is to use View › Character Styles, which slows me down quite a bit, because I usually leave the View › Paragraph Styles window open.

11. Top Selection Bar Glitch

    1. InDesign 208
    2. For example, let's say I have a file open and I want to create a new file without using the shortcut CTRL+N. When I bring my cursor to the top bar containing File, Edit, Layout, Type, Object, etc... it selects the correct category which results in a dropdown menu, but as soon as I move my cursor a little, the system throws the cursor over like 2 tabs at a time. So for example, I click File, the menu drops down, I move the cursor to select the type of New file I want and then suddenly I have a different dropdown menu open, two tabs over. This is not a consistent issue but it happens often enough to be frustrating and bring me to write out this report. While writing this message, the program displayed the glitch (even if I resize the screen or close and reopen the program). Now randomly it works when 5 minutes ago it wasn't working properly.
    3. I would expect the dropdown menu I selected to remain when I click it and move the cursor through that menu.
    4. Sometimes it works as it should, other times it does what I described above.
    5. I would upload some way to view this issue if I knew how.

14. Style Mapping to [Basic Paragraph] doesn’t work with remembered settings or presets

    When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

    If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as expected the first time (when you actively select [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu). But if you do another import where InDesign reads the Style Mappings from a file – either by using the cached Style Mappings that InDesign has remembered from last time, or by using a saved preset – any style that is mapped to [Basic Paragraph] will not work properly. Instead of mapping the Word style to the existing, built-in [Basic Paragraph], what happens is that a second paragraph style is created with the name [Basic Paragraph], and with properties (font, size, etc.) matching the formatting of the Word style, rather than the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. This should not even be possible, since you end up with two styles that have the exact same name, but it happens nonetheless (see screenshot).

    In order to avoid this, you have to go into Style Mappings and re-select all instances of [Basic Paragraph] manually. Notably, when you open the Style Mappings window, the mappings all look correct, but when you click on [Basic Paragraph], the dropdown menu doesn’t open like it does normally – the text “[Basic Paragraph]” just disappears and the selection field becomes empty. You then have to click a second time for the dropdown menu to open.

    This bug has been present for several years (unsure how long). It is present in both Windows and Mac versions of InDesign.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Create a Word document and type some text in any paragraph style (the default “Normal” will do)
    2. Create an InDesign document and place the Word file; make sure “Show Import Options” is selected
    3. In the Microsoft Word Import Options window, select “Customise Style Import” and click on “Style Mapping”, then map the style used in the Word document to [Basic Paragraph]; click OK twice and click somewhere in the document to import the text
    4. Place the Word file again in the same way, using the cached Style Mappings which InDesign automatically remembers without changing anything (you can even deselect “Show Import Options” and skip that part entirely)

    Actual Result:
    After the second import, your document has two paragraph styles, both named “[Basic Paragraph]”, see screenshot. One is the built-in default style; the other is an erroneously created doublet and has the little ‘arrow-into-a-box’ icon to show that it is an imported/auto-created style. The text imported the first time is styled with the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style; the text imported the second time is styled with the imported ‘parasitic’ [Basic Paragraph] style.

    Expected Result:
    After the second import, there is only one paragraph style in the document, the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. All the text in the document, both that imported in the first import and that imported in the second import, is styled with this built-in [Basic Paragraph].

    Any Workarounds:
    Every time you place a Word file, always enter the Style Mapping window and manually reselect [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu for all styles that map to this style. Alternatively, after importing the file, delete the ‘fake’ [Basic Paragraph] style and when asked what to do with the text, select the real [Basic Paragraph] style to replace it.

    When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

15. Document Fonts Package Between WINDOWS & MAC Not Recognized

    Hello.

    There is a problem when doings packages between Windows & Mac OS : since years when you do a package on an OS through another the fonts saved in the folder "Document Fonts" is not recognized by the OS...

    So we can't open & modify the document when we received a package from Windows when we are on MAC OS or vice-versa.

    So we need the client to supply the fonts one by one which is quite annoying.

    OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
    Version 10.0.14393 Build 14393
    Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz, 4008 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)

    Click the Setup button
    Click the Preferences button in the Print window
    Change the paper size using your print driver
    Click OK

18. Nested styles no longer working.

    InDesign 2021

    Used to be able to set a nested style up to or through any specific character (for example a : . Now that option is not working any more. Can only select from the drop down menu. Can work around with a grep style but it's not as easy to get it right.

19. Bug: Table/cell styles don't define cell height and character format

    Indesign CC 2020, v17.1

    The dialog to create a new cell style doesn't have a definition for the cell height (value "At least" / "Exactly") like we find it in the table properties panel. Table styles also don't define cell height and that is all we can use. If you adjust the cell height manually and redefine the cell style, it's also not submitted. So there is no chance to format an entire table just by selecting a table style.

    Next is characters. If there is supposed to be text in a table, that text gotta have a style. Since we want to be able to define different styles for the header row(s) and body, the styles would be nested. Means, a cell style defines the style of the cell, but also of the text by using a character style.

    So, while a table style can define how the different cells shall be filled/stroked it can only format half of the table. Why? Why not make it complete?

20. Unable to drag & drop images within text frame through custom plugin on Indesign CC2020

    We have a custom plugin, we are using this plugin since Indesign CS4. We have an option to drag & drop images from this plugin pallet into Indesign Layout. With the latest CC2020 SDK, we have upgraded our plugin from CC18 to CC2020 & it works fine on all other functionality except "Drag & drop" within text frame.

    We didn't made any update to the code, the same option works fine till CC2019. Is there any known issue with CC2020 sdk for drag & drop?

    Note: Drag & drop Images from custom plugin into Text Frame. Center Point is not Accepted the drag & drop image.But to place the image at left top corner of the image frame, also the mouse pointer get transforms into "T" instead of "+" symbol, when we drag over text frame.
