Permission issue when opening first time from OSX server
Permission issue when opening first time from OSX server.
When opening Indesign file from OSX server, it gives error message: "Cannot open the document ”Xxxx: Xxxxx: Xxxxxx: Xxxxx: Xxxxxxx.indd”. You may not have permission or the document may be open already." When trying again, the file open normally. File is not open already, permissions are ok. Other versions of InDesign opens file ok.

Changing text color with properties panel.
This is about changing the text color of a selected text field through the properties panel.
Current behaviour:
When a text field is selected the properties panel shows just the color of the box not the text. To change the text color a number of clicks through two submenus are necessary.Suggested behaviour:
Text and box color are displayed directly in the properties panel.Thanks!

Search option is not working on EPUB fixed Layout
I have found a problematic bug for .epub files exported from InDesign and opened in Adobe Digital Editions. The fixed layout epub file is not searchable.
To note, an epub file exported from InDesign and marked as re-flowable does work.
This is a SIGNIFICANT issue for me and here's why. I have a 700 page interactive book (includes embedded hyperlinks, videos, audio files) that needs to be distributed and opened by the general population and searchable.
1) The design of the book is formatted per page and needs to remain as laid out in InDesign. This means we can NOT…

Creative Cloud hijacks my entire computer - slow to the point of unworkable
I see this issue so HUGE in forums everywhere and find it frustrating with the support team coming up with lame answers every time, mostly blaming the user and with micro solutions that are temporary. These issues are known issues and keep coming back. Support close the tickets too readily and we can't re-open those cases to demonstrate how this is unresolved.
I've tried every remedy including:
- Uninstall Creative Cloud and all apps and reinstall
- Many times 'Repaired' - pretty much every restart it needs 'repairing'
- Used the cleaner tool
- Cleaned specific cache as instructed
- Made a second user to…

Indd freezes, then crashes, when opening linked (placed) indd files from an indd file
Indd 16.0 x64, and the previous version. Windows 10. Create a document with test and also linked Indesign "sub-documents" in it. Run spell-check or find & replace, set to check all open documents. Indd opens the linked document, then freezes. You cannot save, quit, or anything. I have submitted numerous crash reports. See https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/indesign-2020-crashes-while-using-spell-check-with-linked-indesign-files-on-windows-10/m-p/11608010?page=1#M404257 for details.
My documents are typically books with 10-20 indesign files in each book. Some of the indesign files have placed (linked) indesign files, typically standard "boilerplate" that must be the same everywhere. When I run a spell check across all of the open docs in…

Opening idml from CC2021 crashes CC2020 but not CC2019 and earlier
When I save file as an idml from CC2021 I cannot open it in CC2020 as it crashes. CC2019 and earlier can open idml files from CC2021. It seems to be an issue only with CC2020. I've managed to open a 1 page blank document with CC2020 from CC2021, but anything that I've worked properly on crashes when the idml is opened in CC2020. I've attached an example.

Hi Team, InD CS -yes I know it's from the ark but I love it! It still does a great job!!
When placing an item from Library (in this case formatted Text Boxes), what do they actually link to?
I have them marked "lock position" but then I find them scattered all over the document (a quite long one).
Is there any way to link them (position them) relative to a paragraph mark or some other text item on the page.1 vote -

Danish translation in 'EPUB Export Options' is wrong
In the EPUB Export Options window - Metadata - two fields are translated into Danish. But this is not done correctly.
Re: field 3 "Created by" and 7 "Rights".This Text: > should be translated into this
Oprettet af: > Forfatter: Højre: > Copyright:
(because 'Forfatter' means 'Author' and this metadata information is requied in EPUBs.. and 'Højre' means the opposite of left ... so this is NOT the case here ;)

Cross references rendered to big/wrong line break
Text with cross references isn't rendered correctly. The line break is triggered far to early (see IDML and PNG) image. This affects probably all InDesign Version but was reproduced with CC 2020 and CC 2021
The line break works with the Adobe World-Ready Composers but not with the Classic Composers.
I cannot use the World-Ready Composers because of the justified nonbreaking space see https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/41793187-bug-since-cs6-nonbreaking-space-s-issue-wit
Please fix both bugs!
