1. tracking

   Having lots of issues since the latest update (17.2) with the character box.

   When I highlight my text it won't allow me to click the dropdown to change the font or the tracking.

   If I click on the 'tracking' field, I can type the number in manually but I can't see it. I also cannot click the up and down buttons to change it that way.

2. Rulers exceeding text boundaries, only paragraph shading or offsets seem to be able to limit them

   The issue is described in this thread (sample .INDD file link included in the thread to reproduce the issue):

   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/can-all-column-rules-height-be-re-adjusted-at-once-after-changing-the-copy-text-font-size/m-p/13139262#M488618

   The excess rulers that go beyond the text boundary can only be removed (or masked, not sure which is actually happening) with paragraph shading.

   As a rule, rulers should not go beyond the text boundary, and they should adapt to the text boundary (if font size have been changed, or if other changes have been made that affect the layout).

   But the green arrows show that in some cases the boundary is correct.

   It shouldn't be necessary to add both offsets and paragraph shading to get the rulers right.

   The paragraph shading trick is not a real solution, that I guess is just overlapping the rulers but it does not trim them.

3. fi creates embedded subset

   When I use the two letters "fi" in that order, when I export PDF, I get embedded subsets. This is on multiple fonts.
   if I switch the case of f"I" to fI upper case (EYE), then the embedded subset issue goes away. (the case of the first letter "f" does not matter.
   example so words:
   first
   fit
   profit
   indentifies

4. Multi-Lingual Data Handling

   This is a suggestion for a new feature for people using InDesign for multilingual purposes.

   In India, we may need to use 3 languages ​​at the same time, for example, in addition to English, we may need to use the national language Hindi and the regional language Malayalam, Tamil or some other language. In other countries, sometimes even more.

   When we try to make changes to a paragraph or chapter using different fonts in different languages, we often have to select and change even one letter to change the font in each language. This greatly reduces the joy of using character, paragraph styles, etc. and reduces efficiency and output.

   Now that the languages ​​of the world are rapidly moving to Unicode, it would be nice if we could address each language separately and make changes to the character style and paragraph style based on the Unicode font spectrum suitable for each language.

   I hope I can contribute more ideas to the efforts to meet this global challenge.

   Thank you

5. Indesign 2020 intolerable lag of up to 10 seconds when switching from selection to text tools

   Since the latest update, InDesign has extensive trouble switching from selection to text tools. This appears to be exacerbated by having more than one layout file open. I'm running Windows 10 Pro, i9 system with 64GB of ram. I've reinstalled, deleted preferences, reduced fonts installed, deactivated preflight, deactivated opentext options bug on boxes. The problem is very repeatable and proving a major work disruption.

7. 15.0.2

   When pasting a group of layers from one document to another it would be great of InDesign would honor the sort order when the layers land in the receiving document. Also if the layer colors can stay the same.

   I often paste between documents and it is not fun having the manual sort the layers. How about a sort selected layer by "X' as an option. Typically I number these direct mail layers in numerical order.

   This is very important with direct mail clients with variable data. The printers prefer all versions for the different branch offices in a 2-page front and back INDD file for both digital and traditional printing as well.

8. character styles in Table of Contents

   Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.

   It is a best practice, if you use running headers, to apply a character style to a selected subset of a heading, for example, HeadText1 for a first-level heading, and HeadText2 for a second-level heading, so that the header just shows basically a short title for the heading. You define the header to contain two text variables, first Heading1 that picks up, for example, the first instance of the text marked with HeadText1, and Heading2 that picks up the last instance of HeadText2. Works great, and I have a post at https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2602190 that shows how to do this. (HeadText1 and HeadText2 character styles apply nothing but the name, they don't change the text at all; they are just to tell the headers which subset of the Heading1 or Heading1 to put into the header at the top of the page.)

   The problem is that when you generate a Table of Contents, the header will pick up HeadText2 and insert in the header, as the entries in the Table of Contents all have the HeadText1 and HeadText2 character styles. While keeping character styles is a good default… people might want to keep them in the Table of Contents… there should be a checkbox for "strip character styles" for documents where you are using this best practice for running headers.

   See: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2628881

10. fonts appearing as distressed almost

    Some fonts appear as distressed. Almost like there's a pattern overlay on them. It changes as you move the text box around on the screen. Doesn't export into pdf like this, only in active document (see blue text, I've included what appears in indesign and how it looks normally)

15. Missing fonts, spell checking not working with InDesign 2020 build 15.0.2

    There are two bugs with InDesign 2020, build 15.0.2, which make it unusable for me. I have reverted to build 15.0, and the two bugs are not in that build.

    Bug 1 is that often when I export pages as a pdf, or I package the document, the fonts I am using in the document become missing afterward. I need to quit InDesign in order to have InDesign find those fonts again.

    Bug 2 is that spell checking no longer works. The spell checking window comes up, but it never catches any misspellings.

    Reverting InDesign to build 15.0 takes care of those bugs. I'm not sure what the problem is with build 12.0.2, but it is unusable.

    I am running Mac OS Catalina 10.15.3 on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) with 16 GB of ram.

18. widespread issues with unicode fonts (tibetan) and footnotes

    macos 10.13.6, ID 15.1.3
    completely wacky behaviour of footnotes in combination with unicode tibetan fonts (dduchen, noto, babelstone tibetan). fn numbers in text do not follow formatting, in footnote reference numbers are only one digit (most of the time) and sometimes proper digits (occacionally). odd spaces before letters and words (all fonts), strange behavior with formate changes. this is as ********* as it gets.

20. Text Frame Lag when Window > Control (Panel) is enabled.

    When Control Panel is enabled (Window > Control), double clicking into a text frame has a lag for about a second. Turning off the Control Panel helps but this is not a solution.

    I think this lag is related to loading fonts in background for the select field – doesn’t matter how much or how less fonts are installed/loaded on Mac.

    As this is a long existing performance issue yet (available since 2018), could you please consider to optimize the lag for text frames within a future update, finally?
