1. Layout options for multiple records from data merge

   I have recently discovered Data Merge and it works great for most things. However I need to output multiple records per page set out head-to-head. This is so the output can be printed and folder in half with the text on both side the right way up. More detailed controls would be big help.
   Unless I have missed something.

2. Rendering problems on second monitor

   Just updated to Illustrator 16.2.1 and discovered a bug I didn't have last week. This is reproducible even over a restart. What I'm doing: opening two documents and moving one to a second monitor to compare the layouts. MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Core i9 Radeon Pro 560X 4GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536MB. When I move a window to the second monitor (the Intel card), the display first is very large (one page, as opposed to spread view). Then as soon as I scroll, the content rendering gets corrupted. It might be totally upside down; or it might smear during scroll. Scrolling top to bottom smudges; scrolling bottom to top resets. It doesn't make a difference if the window is the main work window or a separate one. Happens even with a new document and placeholder text.

   You can small ‘up-down’ arrows next to the panel name to switch between the sizes of the panel.

4. InDesign CC UI scaling problem on multiple monitors with different resolutions

   InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.1 x64
   Operating System: Windows 10 Pro build 1709.
   Monitors: Portrait orientated Dell U2415 24 inch (1200x1920) with 100% windows scale option and Landscape orientated Dell UP3216Q (3840x2160) with 150% (Recommended) scale.

   Steps to reproduce the issue:
   1. Open InDesign CC on the 32 inch monitor
   2. Move all or some of the panels to the 24 inch monitor

   Expected result:
   Panels in the 24 inch monitor should adapt to the resolution of the monitor the same way Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC does – crisp and nice.

   Actual result:
   Panels don't adapt to monitor's resolution. If UI Scaling in InDesign preferences is turned ON and option scale to higher (or lower) supported scale factor is turned on, panels are slightly blurry. If UI scaling is turned OFF, then panels are way too small. All of this is due to improper scaling.

   Extra notes:
   Please see my thread on forum with image previews –

6. WordsFlow

   When deciding against using WordsFlow plugin by EmSoftware, not renewing from trial license, it continued not only to be on the main FILE menu but it also is preventing normal (InDesign) placing of graphic files into InDesign files by a popup window asking for license renewal information. If I cancel that window, it cancels the PLACE... operation. In other words, WordsFlow does not extricate itself from the program even if no longer using and registered AND after uninstalling from the Windows APP utility, BUT it continues to interfere with normal InDesign operation.
   How do I get rid of this?

7. Windows #@$!*&%^((@@)):[[

   Hello to the Adobe InDesign Geniuses! I write this with a heavy heart, I have been a mac holdout/Windows Defender when it comes to Adobe products (Photoshop) since the Mid 1990's If I had to guess, 1995 or 1996. I LOVE Adobe Products and have a huge distaste for Mac. I am reaching a breaking point with Windows, they are trying to make an OS SOOO much more and constantly causing problems, I just had to re install windows on 5 computers due to the latest update that I have yet to have one Windows tech support expert agree as to what the actual problem was, if there really was a problem with any windows patch..... I am seriously considering looking into a Chromebook. The only reason I have not jumped is.... No Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Premiere Pro etc... I know Adobe has started to make some apps available on Android/Chrome OS, is there any hope of a full Suite? If so, any clues as to when? Thank you!

8. Keyboard shortcuts to change case not working on Windows

   Keyboard shortcuts to change case of lines of text is no longer working. Apart from Alt-T to get up the text menu, I'm now having to use the mouse to select the further options to change to Title case. The sequence Alt-T-E-T, no longer works. As I frequently have many entries which need unifying each time I use it, this once useful feature is sorely missing. Please can you fix it Adobe?

9. 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.

10. Document title field doesn't handle pasted content that includes paragraph characters.

    In the File Information window: If you paste a document title into the Document title field (that includes a return character) it messes with the title field. Maybe you could add scroll bars to solve this…

11. 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.

13. Missing item in startup screen should be removed

    If I move a document on my hard drive, of course it’s gonna be missing in the recent items of inDesign. (normal)
    At that moment, instead of « missing doc -> OK » i should have :
    « missing doc -> remove from recent docs / Ok »
    * OK would do the exact same thing, closing the message window and leaving the icon/item there.
    * remove would remove it from the list so that I don’t see it again and mistakenly click it again.
    Why keeping the « OK » item at all ? So that I can keep track of a moved file if i didn’t want, or was on an external removed drive, and will find it again next time it is plugged/mounted.

14. 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.

16. control palette disappears

    When the system comes out of screen saver or sleep mode, the Control palette has disappeared. The only way to make it visible again is to quit and restart the program. InDesign Version 16.1, macOS 10.14.6 Mojave, 2013 MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013). Two monitors: built-in retina display 15.4-inch (2880 x 1800) with NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2 GB graphics and 19.5-inch (1920 x 1080) DELL D2015H Display also using NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2 GB graphics. Problem seems to be related to the use of two monitors.

20. 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.
