Share for Review: 404 Error, I'm the owner but receive no access
>>>I have hundreds of share for review links that all don't work anymore, neither for me nor externals. They all end up at 404. When I open the indd, I get the message that I'm not permitted to create or update a review link because I'm not the owner — I am. I've tried logging out and back in but that didn't help. My indesign is fully up to date at version 17.3.

European characters recognized as Kanjis in composite fonts
>>>I'm editing a Chinese document containing certain European characters such as ē and í.

> I've created a composite font that uses Roboto for numbers and latin alphabets, and Noto Sans CJK for the Chinese characters.>Recently I noticed some of the European characters are incorrectly recognized as Kanjis, and are set to Noto Sans CJK instead of Roboto.
>>By testing my composite font settings, I confirmed that these misbehaving characters are being recognized as Kanjis (the top row in the composite font window).

Paragraph Borders appearing incorrectly between paragraphs at top/bottom of page
>>>InDesign 17.3 (2022) running on an Apple M1 chip
>>When several adjacent paragraphs have the same border settings, the treatment of borders at the top/bottom of the page vary depending on whether the pages break BETWEEN paragraphs, or WITHIN paragraphs. They should function the same.
>>In the attached screenshot, query-bordersappearing.png is incorrect (ACTUAL RESULT).
>>The rules should disappear as seen in query-bordersnotappearing.png (EXPECTED RESULT, even if the page break falls between paragraphs).
>>The only difference between the two screenshots is I pulled up the bottom of the box on the left-hand page to force the text to break within a paragraph, rather than between paragraphs.
>>The file query-bordersettings.png shows the border setting for all the paragraphs involved.

Having issues updating files which are published online.
>>>Hi there, I am having problems trying to amend (override) an already 'published online' indesign file. I really liked the capability of this function as it means that other sites where my file is embedded, do not need to be updated and I can go directly to the source without the html link changing.

All adobe apps temporarily freeze when another adobe app is saving.
>>>I've noticed this since the last update. When InDesign is saving, all other Adobe apps temporarily freeze until InDesign completes saving. Not a problem most of the time for quick saving documents, but for larger projects like catalogs, I can be stuck for 5-10 minutes until INDD completes saving.

InDesign overset text copies entire document
>>>InDesign is creating a problem wherein I finish an entire document and it still says there is overset text. When I create a new frame to put it into to see what it is, I find that InDesign has duplicated the text of the entire document. When I try to delete the extra, it just copies the text over and over and puts it right back, including if I try to delete the frame that the extra text is inside of. How do I make this stop?

Ctrl-0 then paste no longer quite centres
>>>It appears the latest version doesn't quite centre when doing the normal 'cut object > ctrl/cmd-0 to centre and fill the page on the viewport > paste'. On a 210mm x 280mm layout it's giving a centre co-ordinate of 105.112mm x 140.112mm rather than 105mm x 140mm.
