1. Ligatures cause ADA compliance issues! Let's have a preference option to turn them all off, globally.

   Please, please add a global Preference in the Advanced Type window to TURN OFF ALL LIGATURES. These are problematic to ADA requirements. This would be just an additional global preference that we could set when we have no InDesign documents open, so that any new documents (after we turn off the ligatures in the preference area) would not have ligatures.

2. Import Word file - cannot set 'Import as Static Text' as Default Preset

   When I import a Word document I want the option 'Import as Static Text' ticked all the time.

   The problem is that if I tick 'Import as Static Text' and make it a new Default Preset, InDesign remembers this until I quit InDesign and then relaunch it. The relaunched InDesign doesn't remember it - it remembers the Preset name, but it doesn't remember to tick 'Import as Static Text'.

   This happens in CC2019 and CC2020. Could you please fix it so that the Preset you make remembers to keep 'Import as Static Text' ticked all the time, even when you quit and relaunch InDesign.

   Cheers
   John

3. Find/Change | Object | Selection | Won't change colour if in a group

   Hi. I think I might have found a bug.

   Find/Change | Object | Selection | Won't change colour if in a group.
   (It works if 'Search' is set to Document.)

   1.png
   Shows a test. I want to change the Yellow to Red.

   2.png
   Shows the top group colour not changing if 'Search | Section' is chosen

   3.png
   Shows both colours changing to Red if 'Search | Document' is chosen

   Can this be fixed please, or an option to Change Items in a group f it was a 'Feature'.

   Thanks

4. PDF Export Page Range Defaults to Previous Settings

   Adobe InDesign – PDF Export Page Range Defaults to Previous Settings

   When exporting a document to PDF in Adobe InDesign, the software retains the page range from the previous export session and uses it as the default setting for the next export. This behavior can lead to unintentional partial exports if the user forgets to manually reset the page range to "All" before exporting a new document or version.

   This issue disrupts workflow and increases the risk of delivering incomplete documents, particularly in environments with high output volume or multiple concurrent projects. It would be more efficient and user-friendly if InDesign automatically defaulted the page range to "All" for each new export operation, or at least provided an option in preferences to reset the range between exports.

   We request Adobe to consider implementing this feature in a future update to improve usability and prevent accidental export errors.

5. Color Profile Warnings when copying Objects and Text within the same Document

   Mismatching color profile warnings are very helpful when copying objects between documents with different profiles, which is why this is an always-on option for me.

   However, for some time now, such warnings seem to pop up randomly when I copy text between documents with the same profile settings, and sometimes even when copying text from one text box to another within the same document.

   My understanding is that this is a bug, as live text in an INDD cannot have different profiles. Is there a way to avoid these warnings and still get them when they are necessary (copying between separate documents)?

6. RTL table direction should follow the story direction automatically

   In Arabic documents, tables inserted into a right-to-left story still default to left-to-right column order, so the first column lands on the wrong side and has to be fixed manually every time. Letting a table inherit its direction from the parent story would remove a constant papercut in RTL publishing.

   I produce a lot of timetable and tariff tables for print guides; the reference material I adapt usually looks like dubai metro timings — dense time tables where column order really matters in Arabic.

   Same request for anchored tables inside RTL text frames: inherit, with an override in Table Options.

7. [ID-4275271] Find/Replace Dialog box functionality was changed in 20.3 tabbing from Find now goes to the Special Character button

   in InDesign 20.3 there was a change to the find/replace dialog box. When I tab out of the "Find what:" field it goes into "Specials characters for search" button instead of the way it used to work where it would tab into "Change to:" field.

   I work on large books with data that I cannot control how it comes in and it is not connected. These books have three versions so there are three layers to work on. I need to make the same changes to all three layers. I have a rhythm, and I tend to work fast. At this point it is pure muscle memory (18 years of doing it this way) when using find and replace. Trying to remember to add an extra tab is constantly slowing me down and really frustrating me.

   If you cannot change it back, PLEASE give me the option to disable it or turn the special character button off so it will bypass it. And work the way it used to. I do not use it, have never in 18 years used it and won't use it.

   I was able to turn off everyone single choice in that button and even with nothing to select it still has the option to open an empty drop-down menu.

   I looked at many different forums. Went through numerous settings, If I missed a way to do this I apologize and would love to know where to look.

   Help me Obi-wan, you’re my only hope.

   Thank you

8. I work with book interiors. Have been reading about the nightmares designers have had adjusting the margins of text boxes

   I am not a cool millennial but I work with book interiors. Have been reading about the nightmares designers have had adjusting the margins of text boxes once there are several hundred pages and changing the master pages doesn't alter the actual position of the text boxes. Can I agree with the comments attached below -- to you Adobe company people -- don't **** off loyal users who were using Adobe before the millenials were born -- PLEASE STOP taking away features!!!!! I have recently updated to ID2021. Am I still going to have this bug -- as I now need to adjust the margins a tad away from the spine having just received the hard proof of a 500 page paperback. Thanks :-)

   Again Adobe, the upset stems from your same and recurrent problem (across your product "upgrades"), you don't get it: stop "taking away" features (especially default ones, like you changing the psd default "constraint proportion"... so bad).
   Add new options to old features if you think it improves, we'll click it ON if/when it's suits our type of work (or way of working), but don't (why???) take away what's there, works and have been working for ever.

   It's amazing the lack of knowledge (or depth of knowledge) you too often demonstrate about how your software are (day in-day out) being used/by whom/and for what kind of projects. Try test driving with people who have been working with them for more than 5 minutes, they might not be cool millennials, but they sure understand Indesign (and PSD, and AI...), and are not confused about "which software" to used for doing "what" well.

   For myself, it's sadly the number one complaint I have with Adobe. I use your software every day and find them truly amazing and I think Indesign is the top in it's field.

9. Mp4 not work at "Place from URL" Option

   I have place mp4 files from "Place from URL" option in the document and its place nicely when I have prepared epub and publish online then doc display empty page after discussion with adobe they told me that mp4 not compatible, so i have to convert video in FLV extension then it will work, which is impossible for me. MP4 is most useful extension and Adobe need to solve this and make mp4 compatible for it.

   Keep in Mind when we place from "Place from URL" Not direct placing of MP4 file, "Place form URL" Option.

10. About InCopy pop-over window unable to close

    In the process of looking up the InCopy version number for another bug report, I opened the About InCopy window. This opened on my second screen and will not clear. There is no exit button, ESC does nothing, clicking it does nothing, clicking the links changes the content of the box but doesn't open any other options, clicking away from the box sends it behind the current window but does not close it. I cannot use InCopy as it is unresponsive underneath this pop-over box. The box can be cleared by closing out of it in Alt+Tab gallery, but the program remains unresponsive. Windows, v19.3

11. InDesign: Insert authors document's metadata without quotes

    Version
    Adobe InDesign up to 2023.

    Steps to reproduce the issues
    Setting the active document’s metadataPreferences.author with multiple authors, separated by comma or semicolon in a string via extendscript:
    
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.author = "Elric Wade; Anne Emu; Sophie Kumpir";


    Expected result
    The authors should be placed into the "Author" metadata field, separated by comma or semicolon.

    Actual result
    The authors are placed into the "Author" metadata field, but all set within double quotes, so they appear to be one author, not multiple authors.

    Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional)
    See attached screenshot.

    Please make it possible to add multiple authors (e.g. with not quoting comma or semicolon separated strings, or by letting pass-in an array with names).

13. Anchored Textframes with Auto adjusting height within a Textfreame

    1. CC 2018 – 13.1 (Can't update to CC 2019 right now because of Plugins)
    3. Create a big "master" Text frame
    4. Create 2 more text frames that auto adjust in height and fill them with lorem ipsum or any text.
    5. Paste those two text frames into the first created "master" Text frame
    6. Change the Text in the first Text frame (Add some empty lines or remove text) and see InDesign fail to update.
    7. Expected result: Should be pretty obvious... InDesign should not fail to update the current view.
    8. Actual Result: All Textframes are misaligned because InDesign does not update correctly – If you dare to move the "master" text frame now it gets even stranger. - The only way to update it to the correct look is to force InDesign to update the text frame by changing something like space after in the "master" text frame. (See video and Screenshot attached)
    9. See attachment
    10. Usecase: for Example DatabasePublishing inline publication - where every here shown "Textframe" would be a product within a Page – But it is impossible to work like this! – I could be wrong but i have a feeling that this is happening since the disapearing Tablehead bug got fixed (unconfirmed...) i don't have the option to test it in an older or newer version - but we never had this issue before.

14. Edit with other - doesn't see Photoshop as an application

    I use the Indesign feature on the links menu to Edit With, either using the default application or another. We just updated to the latest CC (ps, il, in) and the other application isn't the same. For any jpg or pdf, it shows Photoshop or illustrator or Acrobat as available to open the image selected. However, if I select an ai. file, it shows Illustrator as the default, and Preview as another option - no Photoshop. I select Other to add Photoshop, go to the applications folders, click on Photoshop and it's only seeing it as a folder, not as an application.

    From a finder window, if I click on an ai. file, choose open with other, go to the applications folders, select Photoshop it does see it as an applications and allows me to open the file.

    It was a very useful, speedy way to edit images in either illustrator or photoshop using the Edit With in Indesign.

    Why doesn't it work now? Why does Indesign not see Photoshop as application anymore?

15. after cmd+D manually drawn frame does not match the placed image

    If I place an image with cmd+D and then draw the frame manually with the mouse, the frame always has the same aspect ratio (3 to 4 landscape) and if I want to place an image in portrait format, the frame does not match the content. So far, this has always been the case without any extra setting or key combination. But now since a few days I can't achieve this again with any setting.

    ChatGPT advises me to select ‘Fit frame to content’ in the frame fitting options or in the presettings, but this is no longer available for selection. Has this been deliberately changed or is this a silly new bug?

16. Incorrect Justify vertically text frame

    Justify vertically text frame is not correct every time particularly in more than 2 columns text frame. Tried all options and found some time there are space in bottom of last line as in attached file.

    Reproduced in the same in 2 or more columns text frames. This happens in:

    1. If used heading span 2 or more or spall all.

    2. Placed any text wrap graphics,

    3. Used with or without "Skip by leading"

    All the instances are same results, in some cases the space are more than the attached file, particularly if used "span all" for heading and place any "text wrapped" object

17. Lists ignore alignment when story is subject to object wrapping

    InDesign v20.1.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. In a blank document, create a new story. Add a few blank lines, then a new paragraph with list settings (either bullets or numbers). Align it to center or right.
    2. Create an ellipsis and set its wrapping options to contour wrapping.
    3. Move the ellipsis so that it intersects the story above the actual list (the list doesn't have to be in range of the wrapping countour).

    Expected result:
    Nothing should happen to the list, since it's far from the wrapping area.

    Actual result:
    The numbers/bullets get aligned the left, no matter what alignment is set.

    Attached are a screenshot of a test file (aligned to the right) and another found in production (aligned center).

18. Pasteboard not centered in layout view

    I'm not sure if this is the right bug category, but when trying to view spreads, no matter what view option I pick, the pasteboard is aligned right only, with lots of extra room on the left. If I scroll all the way left, the left edge of the pasteboard is about in the middle of the view area and if I scroll all the way right, nothing past the right edge of the pasteboard is visible. It should be the other way around if not centered, because at least then, all my tool panels wouldn't cover up what I need to work on, on the right side. My only work arounds are to detach and move the tool panels, or zoom in enough that panel doesn't cover up my spread, or make a giant pasteboard so that there is enough extra room on the right side. All of which are annoyances that 'bug' me. ;-)

    We’ve not heard of this one before.
    Could you show us a screenshot (sharewithid@adobe.com)?

19. PDF export do not work with big documents

    Indesign 21.4.1
    Mac mini M4 24 GB
    Tahoe 26.5.2 (25F84)

    Document 1834 pages
    3 colums
    It contains only running text—no images—using paragraph and character styles. It is entirely in Times New Roman. The document is simple, though it is quite long.

    It creates a 0 KB PDF file and just keeps spinning without ever finishing. There are no error messages. The "Force Quit" menu shows nothing unusual.

    It is impossible to print using any of the "Adobe PDF Settings" options—such as "Press Quality," "High Quality Print," etc.

    A friend tried printing the file from an older version of InDesign on a PC, and the document printed correctly and quickly using any of the PDF output settings.
