Software changes
I use InDesign daily for my publication and when you keep changing things, it throws me off and wastes my time.
I used to be able to print to save pages to the same folder, but now when I print to save a page, it takes me to whatever folder I most recently placed an image from. VERY frustrating. Also, I now have to scroll to get to my most recently used fonts rather than the drop down font list being automatically positioned at the top with most recently used fonts.
I wish you would just STOP changing things! Every time there's an update, it takes me a several days to adjust to changes that I didn't need or want, which slows me down and reduces my productivity.
If you MUST do updates, make them optional, or allow us to download them quarterly or twice a year so we don't have to constantly adapt to changes!I use InDesign daily for my publication and when you keep changing things, it throws me off and wastes my time.

Keyboard shortcuts don't work InDesign 15.0 High Sierra
Had to downgrade to ID 14.0.3 twice after attempting to install InDesign 15.0 on MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017) running MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6. 90% of keyboard shortcuts do not work at all, and those few that do, work intermittently. Extremely frustrating, very poor QC.

One plate prepared pdf images are separated to four plates in final pdf book
InDesign 2020 v 15.02, MacOS Catalina
I want to produce a book pdf with only black plate. I placed 3 grey pdf images in ID document and prepared them to use only black color (no cyan, magenta and yellow). The final result is that these images are separated to four plates in pdf book.
The solution is to save these 3 pdf images as for example tiff or psd and then place them into ID. Then the final result is right: I have a one-plate pdf book using only black color.
If this is a bug, please fix it, because it may cause problems with preparing book for print.

Update:
I created pdf with the same image but with unchecked option "Optimize file…” and the colors are separated again. If I check this option, the problem doesn’t occur.It’s really dangerous to have a bug like this. If I didn’t check pdf in Acrobat Pro, I would lead to extra cost of four plates instead of one.

character size
Hello,
I have an issue with the size of some panel. For example, the "paragraph" one and the "character" one are oversized, they are too long and I can't reach the end or even redimensionized it. How can I fix that?1 vote -
Cant type lowercase letter 'b'
Lowercase 'b' cannot type in a text frame. I can press shift+b to do a capital b, but if I do type lowercase 'b' it reverts the entire paragraph back to Basic paragraph style. I looked through all the shortcuts and couldn't find anything.

InCopy Export Omits Index Markers
Hello,
I have run into trouble on the InCopy export from InDesign with regard to index markers and am wondering if anyone else has the same situation.
The export of InCopy files from InDesign omits index markers in specific scenarios due to the nature of XML.
Specifically, if the index marker of a subentry occurs earlier in the text than the main entry, any other subentries after the main entry will disappear when checking in or saving the InCopy file, even if no edits are made in the file.
The reason for this seems to be that all index markers in an InCopy file are combined into a sequential listing of index markers for the document. This listing is created as the computer goes through the text to save or check in the InCopy file. If a subentry comes first and then a main entry follows, further subentries don’t know where to insert themselves in the overall listing of index markers and they disappear.
As a workaround, a Suppressed Page Range index marker can be added before the first subentry as shown in the below example:
EXAMPLE:
We have the following subentries under bacteria:
bacteria, 2 bacterial memory reproduction, 3 experiment with smoke and steam, 1 never investigated why it got things sick, 5We have a subentry on page 1, before the main entry on page 2. Because the main entry is on page 2, those subentries that are after the main entry will disappear and upon exporting the InCopy file, we get:
bacteria, 2 experiment with smoke and steam, 1The subentries on page 3 and page 5 disappeared.
Temporary Resolution:
If a subentry is exists before a main entry, an additional “Suppress Page Range” index marker is created for the main entry.
Can this be corrected in the native ICML export from InDesign?

Indesign quitting and slow while shooting PDF's
InDesign 15.0.2 slow PDF creation, gets worse the more PDF's i shoot in a row, finally indesign quits.
It all started when indesign was working very slowly.
I fixed this issue by turning off GPU and Preflight.I have to regularly shoot Hi and Lo res PDF's, 50 at a time, 2 page brochures, 100 pages in the document, the first 3-5 pdf's shoot fine, then it starts to slow down, i spend 30 seconds on each pdf just watching the spinning progress wheel before it will even let me type in the page numbers, this gets worse and worse until Indesign quits.
I have recently paid to have a new 2TB SSD drive fitted and upgraded to Mojave 10.14.6, this has made no difference, i have also removed external backup drive, again made no difference.
One of your engineers actually told me that 30 second wait is perfectly norman!!!!!! Having used Indesign since it first came on the market i know this to be rubbish. I never had similar problems with CS6, CS6 created PDF's almost instantly. This is very frustrating and has slowed my workflow down to about 1/3.

Trackpad scroll issues with InDesign v15.0.2 on new MacBook Pro 16" 2.4 GHz 8 core processor 64GBmemory. .
InDesign v15.0.2 Trackpad is not scrolling well on new MacBook Pro 16" 2.4 GHz 8 core processor 64GBmemory. I just upgraded my equipment to top of line MacBook Pro. and bought the subscription to Adobe all apps. I have been using 2013 MacbookPro with CS6. My files are unresponsive in Indesign. I typically collage with 600+ photoshop images to make is single design on multiple pages. On my old system I was not running into problems except new OS was incompatible with CS6.
This is unacceptable. I called Adobe and they were not helpful.

Unable to drag nodes text frame
InDesign 15.0.2, running Catalina 10.15.4
I can easily add/remove nodes to a text frame but I have tremendous difficulty trying to move a node with the direct selection cursor. When I click and drag the node, the entire frame moves, indicating the node never got selected. A node seems to only manage to get selected about 10% of the time. I am not doing anything special for that to happen. It randomly works and 90% of the time it doesn't. Very frustrating.

Easy-Access On/Off Toggle Needed for "Use Typographer's Quotes"
I create and edit spec sheets that use lots of "typographer's quotes" and "non-typographer's quotes" AKA "inch marks." Having "use typographer's quotes" turned OFF allows me to type an "inch mark."
So I constantly have to open preferences to turn typographer's quotes OFF to create inch marks in my dimensions charts, then turn it back ON to use typographer's quotes in my paragraphs.
Adding a quick-access toggle for typographer's quotes, or even including a shortcut to type the opposite kind of quotation mark would be helpful and save time.

InDesign crashes sporadically while scaling/rotating objects
I've noticed numerous times that InDesign will crash while scaling/rotating objects. Can you please fix this bug?
1 voteTo identify the cause of this issue, we had started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received an email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.
We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the finding: Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent in nature at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.
We recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2021(v16.0.0.77) as it is more robust and contains a lot of bug fixes.
We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.
