indd 2022 - black font seperation incorrect in pdf export with some settings
>>>after the update to indd 2022 (which some idiot client editor did in the middle of a magazine before saving and thus up-versioning half the files) I have problems with pdf export. Since acrobat/distiller seems not to have been updated at the same time, I assume the problem is with indd.
>>When exporting for print, indd exports black print as rich black - regardless of the indd settings - when the export to pdf settings /output / convert to destination (profile) is set.
>
> If I export with / convert to destination (preserve numbers) then black is exported correctly. This is obviously bunk.
> thw workaround (half a day to find this) is to export with convert to destination (preserve numbers). Caveat all images needed to be converted manually before export, as a specific output profile was necessary.>needless to say everything worked as expected before the 'update'.
>>Seperation is determined with Acrobat CC preflight ink separations.
>>I can reproduce the error with a new document, with text cmyk 0 0 0 100 /adobe preset output all blacks accurately /, exported to pdf converted to ISO coated.

> With "preserve numbers" the separations in Acrobat are correct, without preserve numbers rich black is exported.>System

Verknüpfungen werden nach jeder Aktivität neu aufgebaut // InDesign 17.0 x64 // running on Win 10 Pro
>>>Aktuell laden sich die verknüpften Bilder nach jedem Doing in InDesign (Also egal was ich mache, Textverschieben, von einem anderen Programm zurück zu InDesign wechsle oder was auch immer, 1 Sache mache ich und schon laden die ganzen Verknüpfungen neu. In den alten Versionen lief das ohne Probleme. Ich konnte ohne Störungen arbeiten. Dies scheint ein BUG zu sein, denn das macht das Arbeiten mit dem neuen InDesign unmöglich. Ich kann nicht jede Sekunde warten, bis sich der Screen neu aufgebaut hat und ich weiterarbeiten kann. Die Bilder komplett auszugrauen ist auch keine Option, da es für unsere Gestaltung wichtig ist, die eingebauten Bilder sehen zu können.
>>Gibt es hier evtl. eine Lösung die ich nicht kenne?

> Falls und wenn leider nicht, bitte schickt hier ein ganz schnelles Update nach.

Font names display inconsistently
>>>This is a strange one: we use this font >https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/lus> (you have to put a 't' on the end of that url, Uservoice thinks it's rude, apparently) it's Regular and Display weights. On two computers this shows up as (syntax here is [Font Family] / [Font Style]) Lus(t) / Regular and Lus(t) Display / Regular, respectively. On three others they show up as Lus(t) / Regular and Lus(t) / Display and there seems to be no way to align them.
>>I've attached a screenshot of how the taskbar shows font on the machines that separate them out.
>>The first two computers are a Windows 10 desktop and a Mac OS Big Sur Intel laptop; the other three are two Mac OS Catalina iMacs and a Mac OS Big Sur Intel laptop. All running InDesign 2022.
>>On layouts where the fonts are separated out into different families; the ones which don't separate them out have the fonts in square braces; throw up the Find/Replace fonts dialogue (and fail to find them), and highlight offending instances in pink. But, crucially, they actually display the font correctly on the layout - and will happily export to PDF correctly, without substituting a default font.
>>Any ideas?
>>Thanks

Open Type Fractions are Broken
>>>The last several weeks I've not been able to create fractions via Open Type text alternates even though it's set to do that in advanced type preferences and it's not giving me a dropdown option when the fraction is selected as it used to. It also doesn't work via the character window route. I'm using the most up to date CC InDesign 2021.

Table formats don't work at all
>>>ID 2019 - 2021
>
> 1. Create a table format with table frame 1 pt and apply to a table without stroke - no change.
> 2. Create a cell format with 1 pt stroke, nest in the table format and apply - no change. See video.
> 3. Apply the cell format to a cell - at first no change. You must manually use the button that removes deviations. See the other video.>Conclusion: neither table formats nor cell formats correctly override the current formatting of a table.

UI Default Too **** Small!
>>>UI in InDesign 15.0.1 is way too small by default and not scalable. Many users have been complaining about this for years, yet you guys refuse to do anything about it, while charging us up the wazzoo for subscription fees. If this is not addressed soon, we may all abandon you for Canva.

InDesign 2022 crash when updating modified links in an existing document
>>>I just updated to InDesgin CC 17.0. I have a MacBook Pro 2020, with OS 10.15.7. Trying to open an InDesign CS 6 file with modified links to other InDesign documents causes the application to hang up and I have to force quit it. It doesn’t matter if I choose update links or don’t update links in the dialog box. In trying to quit and reopen I did manage to recover the document, but I still cannot resolve the modified links problem, since the application hangs up every time I try to update the links in the links pallet. Same with trying to just replace the link. I do have font errors mentioned for these links in the preflight panel that did not occur when working with this document in the previous version of InDesign.
