1. [InDesign 2025, 20.0.1][Win11 23H2]Installed ICC Color Profiles Sometimes Become Unavailable After System Shutdown

   My Win11 has fast boot disabled, so it gets completely shut down rather than just hibernated.

   Once I shut down the computer and start it again, sometimes all installed ICC profiles disappear from View > Proof Setup > Custom... > Device to Simulate

   They reappear after deleting the following files:

   1) C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Color\ACECache11.lst

   2) C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Color\ACEConfigCache2.lst

2. Fix the touchpad

   Just fix the touchpad please. I've already discussed it In detail on the Adobe community (https://shorturl.at/hAPZ8), but the touchpad is not working well at all. Now it's just less worse than 19.0 but still not working properly. You can't pinch to zoom, unlike Illustrator for example, and in general, it's not smooth at all. Trying to scroll through a project is a challenge; it scrolls in jumps with almost zero control over it. Centering the project on the PC is impossible without control 0.

3. InDesign 18.1 x64 (Windows) - Problem with font Latino URW Regular Italic

   InDesign 18.1 x64 (Windows) - Downloaded Adobe Latino URW fonts from Adobe fonts site - The Regular Italic shows up as Italic in Windows fonts and Word, the others are OK. When placing Word document into InDesign, get missing font because InDesign does not recognize Latino URW Italic, it wants Latino URW Regular Italic. It is a font naming issue. After removing font, restarting computer, and reloading, problem persists.

4. copy and paste. Text disappears from google docs to InDesign

   Hello,
   When I copy and paste from google docs to Adobe InDesign the text pastes in but then the page goes white and all the text disappears. If I click the text frame the words reappear and the text frame re-sizes and snaps down.

   I am currently on the latest version of Mac Big Sur and have updated to the latest version of Adobe InDesign of 16.3.2. Here are screenshots of the issue.

5. Outside aligned strokes are buggy

   After outlining text, putting an outside or inside stroke on it produces odd results. It seems it aligns to the absolute outside of the object, rather than the edges like it does in other Adobe programs. I've attached an example of what adding an outside stroke to an outlined 'e' looks like in both Indesign and Ilustrator looks like. This seems to effect any object that has a section cut out.

6. Flipped text in PDF created from Canva

   When placing a PDF with certain stylized fonts, the text is being flipped and enlarged. Seems to be specific to Mac OS.

   PDF docs have been created in Canva. They appear correctly when opened in Adobe Acrobat Pro, both on Windows and Mac. They are being placed in InDesign, and at that time the text titles being flipped and enlarged. I am working from v. 16.0.1. This was not an issue in previous versions. When I use png docs instead, and place those, I have no issues. I have been an Indesign user for about 3 years.

7. Misplaced dots in Nastaleeq Font rendering

   I'm using Adobe Indesign 2020 for an Urdu book. Most text is in Urdu and my font of choice is Mehr Nastaleeq. The text looks fine in MS Word using the font (see attached image) but In Design is not rendering certain words correctly (see attached image).

8. Color Reading Completely Incorrectly

   Adobe. This is an insane problem to have not fixed.

   Colors are seriously displaying incorrectly. From one program to another the colors look different and they do not at all match the way the color read in 2018.

   The attached shows the same color in Indesign 2019 (left) and Illustrator 2019 (right)

   This is a serious issue that people have been having since the 2019 update and I cannot believe there is not an update to fix this yet.

   Every time Adobe releases an update lately I hesitate to download. The ideas behind the updates are intended to increase functionality but there is always something major broken.

   Going to spend an hour reverting back to 2018 now

9. IDS on Windows: Extreme slowness in ExtendScript execution via SOAP connection (with weird workaround)

   SETUP

   • IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)

   • Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"

   • Two test scripts (attached):
     Slow script: "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
     Fast script: "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" (approx 275 KB in size)

   PROBLEM

   There are two scripts to compare. They are both of identical size, does nothing but declare a variable and return a string value. However, while execution of one of the scripts take a fraction of a second, the other script typically runs for > 10 seconds before completing.

   TESTS AND OBSERVATIONS

   1) This takes excessive time to run (typically 13 seconds on my test machine):

      C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop>"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2019\sampleclient.exe" -host localhost:8190 c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\adobe-ids-win-slow.js
      Script result (std__string): Done
   

   2) This completes quickly (typically in less than 0.1 seconds):

      C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop>"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2019\sampleclient.exe" -host localhost:8190 c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\adobe-ids-win-fast.js
      Script result (std__string): Done
   

   3) Adding the "-server" flag to the slow test will make it run fast, since the script isn't passed via SOAP but instead evaluated directly from local disk. This tells me the parsing of the ExtendScript statements isn't slow in itself so the difference seems to lie in the SOAP request handling.

   4) Now a really weird part: removing the very first space (before the comment on line 1) in "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" makes it run almost as fast as the fast script when repeating test 1) above. It turns out that "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" MUST start with a /* */-style comment in the very first byte to run fast; adding the space back, or removing the comment completely, makes it evaluate slowly again. I've tried other tokens such as semicolon, //-style comment, curly brackets etc but none had the same effect.

   5) In contrast to the change in 4), adding spaces before the comment, or removing the comment entirely, from "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" makes no difference in its evaluation performance.

   6) Another strange discrepancy is that even when "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" is modified to run fast using the change described in 4) above, the speed is still slower than the "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" variant. They both declare a string of same length but the data INSIDE the string is different, but while "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" completes in < 0.1 seconds the modified "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" takes closer to a full second.

   7) All of the tests above run at good speed (less than a second) when connecting to IDS 14.0.2.324 on macOS (tested with Catalina 10.15.7). The minor difference in speed between the slow and fast scripts seen in 6) is still present though, but is again eliminated if the "-server" option is used.

   OTHER COMMENTS

   I tried running Microsoft's Windows Performance Analyzer to capture what the slow IDS is doing during the long wait. I found that the overhead is located in calls from AFL (Adobe File Library) to the NT kernel, but without debug symbols I couldn't pinpoint it in more detail. My totally unconfirmed suspicion is that gSOAP/2.7 (as returned in the "Server" HTTP header in IDS connections) is applying some content sniffing to detect encoding, data format or other properties of the inlined script, but why this would only take place on Windows is a mystery, and it's also odd that the initial code comment would short-circuit this and improve performance dramatically.

   I've also tried disabling various Windows Security settings (Firewall, Virus & Threat Protection, Exploit Protection etc) in case that was interfering with network I/O but I've not found any improvement in that area.

   The slowness is not inherent in "sampleclient.exe" either since the root problem was first observed using our own HTTP client, as was the weird workaround of adding the comment string. I'm just using "sampleclient.exe" here to set up a self-contained test case.

   SETUP

   • IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)

   • Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"

   • Two test scripts (attached):
     Slow script: "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
     Fast script: "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" (approx 275 KB in size)

10. Excel filter rejects custom Cell Range for 26-column sheets (.xlsx-only)

    Excel filter rejects custom Cell Range for 26-column sheets (.xlsx-only)

    Steps to reproduce the issues:
    1. Create a new document.
    2. Select File > Place, check Show Import Options, select attached Columns_26.xlsx file.
    3. Note nonstandard default Cell Range: A1:A@10 (should be A1:Z10).
    4. Enter custom (valid) Cell Range "A1:E5"

    Expected result:
    No error and a table containing cells A1 through E5.

    Actual result:
    Error message, "You have not entered a valid 'Cell Range'. (See attached screenshot.)

    This error is given for any sheet whose right-most column is a multiple of 26 (so Z, AZ, BZ, etc.). Place the attached Columns_52.xlsx with range "A1:E5", for example.

    Adding/removing a column (attached Columns_27.xlsx file) avoids the error.

    Versions of Adobe InDesign:
    CS6 through CC 2018.0, Windows and macOS

    Test files and screenshot of error attached.

11. What about screenplay? Will InCopy replace Story?

    Hello everyone.

    I know that Story will be discontinued, and I noticed that the InCopy just came to play.

    I was happy to have a screen writing software that I have already paid for, even though I am an adobe client for it's video editing softwares.
    If InCopy is capable to assist me on writing, I will not need to spend more money on writing

    What I need from InCopy is what I had on story regarding to format, I mean: Scene Header, Action, Character, Parenthesis and Dialog... I just hit one key and I can swap between what I need and write the script without having to worry about format

    Can it be considered for a next update? Now, with the discontinuation of Story, there is no tool for screenwriting whatsoever. I really thought/wished/hoped that InCopy could and would take on that task

    Adobe is always so proud to be a complete production tool. It has even an ingesting and logging software... but the genesis of all that is the script
    And adobe just abandoned the birth of production... This is sad.

12. When opening InDesign 2020 files I get a message that the file is damaged. See screenshot. The same file will open with Adobe 2019.

    When opening the file in ID 2019, I get the message that links are missing. Perhaps ID 20 thinks that the file is damaged because the links are missing, so I get the damaged message.

    Issue:
    Highlight text
    Click on the font Window (mine is displayed on right)
    begin to type in installed or adobe font, font does not populate

    Wen I try to finish typing the font in the searchbar, it doesn't let me type in the next letter and just gives me a different font. Some fonts don't show up or do once and never again, yet are in font dropdown. This includes both installed OTC and installed Adobe fonts.

18. Indesign 2022 menus not working - renders the software ABSOLUTELY UNUSABLE!!!

    Adobe Indesign 17.3 (also happened in 17.4).
    MacBook Pro (M1 2021). macOS Monterey v12.4

    Dropdown menus don't work. If you click, nothing happens, if you double-click the menu appears but, no sub-menus are available. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, tried 17.3 and 17.4, quit, restarted - all to no avail.

    Indesign is unsuable with this bug, this requires Adobe's full attention!!!

19. 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 use the re-flowable option.

    2) For years, we've exported as INTERACTIVE PDF. This allowed users to open with the FREE Adobe Reader and enjoy all the embedded media and search. However, as an exported pdf format, Adobe Acrobat uses flash to play video and audio rather than a different means and as I'm told, due to the removal of flash, Adobe Reader will no longer allow for interactive pdfs to have audio and video controls. So that makes a PDF format not usable for this project. (infuriating!)

    3) Next Option: Publish to Online. However, this option does not allow for search and does not include password protection. Again, making this exported format not usable for my client.

    4) Next option: .Epub. On my mac, the same mac that creates the Indesign file, within Adobe Editions, the epub file works as expected. However, it does not work on any PC that we've tested. The fixed-format has an error and is not searchable and on some computers, the epub file will NOT even open in Adobe Digital Editions. Again, making this exported .epub file format unusable.

    IMPORTANT: Where does this leave me? What format can I use and distribute from InDesign?

    This seems LIKE A HUGE ISSUE for ADOBE and is very detrimental to my professional work.

    I've been told that Adobe Digital Editions is an end-of-life product and no longer has support. What application is InDesign exporting epub files to work in then? What other viewing options does my client have?

    Please help!

20. screen flickering sonoma

    I know this is a known issue, but after 4 months, I would have hoped that a fix would have been developed by now. My fault for now researching before upgrading to Sonoma, but come on guys. I seriously can't believe how terrible my experience has been with both the new Macs and Adobe software. I have been doing design for 18 years, and have never had as much trouble in that time as I have had from both company's products in the last year. This is ridiculous! It is unfortunate for users that we have no other viable options to move to.
