1. Serious GREP style bug: ampersands

   Hi, InDesign team.

   I've run into a serious bug with GREP styles. Any GREP expression containing an ampersand character that is entered as a GREP style in a paragraph style will suddenly acquire additional ampersands whenever I scroll through the list of GREP styles.

   STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

   Create a simple GREP style as part of a paragraph style.
   The entire GREP expression should consist of the single character &. (Though this also happens when the & is part of longer expressions.)
   Make enough other GREP styles that you need to scroll in the window to see them all.
   Close the paragraph style window and reopen it.
   Scroll through the list of GREP styles.
   When you scroll, you will see that "&" has become "&&."

   HERE ARE OTHER DESCRIPTIONS OF THIS ISSUE:

   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/self-propagating-ampersands-in-grep-in-a-paragragh-style/td-p/5881764?page=1

   https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/36196819-paragraph-style-grep-functions-are-unreliable

   I believe I have gotten around the bug by using the Unicode value for an ampersand, but this is not ideal. I need to be able to trust that the GREP style implementation is solid.

   Thank you.

2. IDML export = master page items shift

   When a file is exported as IDML, master/parent page items have shifted. Happens most consistently on pages that are “based on” other pages. This happens whether an object style with positioning has been used or not, but is generally worse when positioning has been defined.

   This has been a persistent issue through the past several versions of ID.

3. InDesign 2026 doesn’t remember “Show Import Options” checkbox (Mac)

   In the new InDesign 2026, this issue still persists — it’s been present at least since version 2025.

   When importing graphics, the Finder window opens, but InDesign no longer remembers the “Show Import Options” checkbox state. In previous versions, this preference stayed active even after restarting the application.

   Now I have to check it again every time I open InDesign.

4. Stops letting me type

   I'm using InDesign 2018 and I will have my cursor in a text box and be typing when the program will stop letting me enter new text. The only way to continue entering text is to tab out of the program and back in. I have no idea what step lead to this issue.

5. "Fit frame to content" doesn't work anymore after a lot of pages in file

   Working on a catalogue, a lot of files in a book. The "fit frame to content" works good until after a lot of pages (I think after 50 or 60 pages) suddenly it doesn't work anymore. With a textframe & also tableframe. But with an image it still works...
   Also very change, when you split the textframe in for example 2, on the second textframe it will work (fit frame to content).
   All the fit options don't work for text & tableframes.
   The right-click and choose the option don't work and also the shortcut doesn't work.

   2 other colleagues have the problem too (same version).

   We use this option a lot, because we imported an XML and then we need to adjust the textframe after placing it on the page.

   Hope this problem will be fixed soon, haven't seen anyone reporting this issue. Thank you!

6. Renaming hyperlinks shared destinations: broken links in exported PDF

   Hello,

   I encounter a serious issue with InDesign 2020 (15.0.3) when renaming hyperlinks shared destinations (linking pages in the same document):

   Those links seem still working in InDesign when clicking a page icon in the Hyperlinks panel (it leads to the proper destination page)
   They don't work anymore after the PDF export in Acrobat (the links are clickable but they lead nowhere)
   I had to re-create all the shared destination links in the document, which is a huge waste of time at least and makes the feature very unreliable.

   I made 2 tests files, here's the Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/lugt070lkyzvnwr/AABIqY90wl4A0ujhD66K6nFaa?dl=0

   Test A

   A 3 pages InDesign file (and the related exported PDF).
   3 shared destinations leading to each page, named Page 1, Page 2, Page 3.
   3 links on each page, set using the shared destinations.
   All works fine in this file once exported as interactive PDF.

   Test B

   Same file as Test A except i renamed these shared destinations:
   Page 1 > Page 1-Renamed
   Page 2 > Page 2-Renamed
   The links using these shared destinations don't work anymore once exported as interactive PDF.

   And here's my post in the community forum:
   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/renaming-hyperlinks-shared-destinations-broken-links-in-exported-pdf/m-p/11193973?page=1

8. [ID-4273320]"Failed to place PDF" with a PDF file created in Canva

   Trying to import a client supplied PDF, created in the paid version of Canva and saved as a CMYK print quality PDF (not flattened). Will not place into InDesign. I've tried various and no import options and it does not work. I have placed this PDF into Adobe Illustrator and Affinity Publisher 2 without issue.

9. Major performance issues in 15.0.2 with multiple large documents open

   I'm on a Windows laptop with a Core i7, 16 gb of ram and a dedicated GPU. Up until the 15.0.2 update there was some hitching and slowdown with these large files (and I noticed a weird bug where hitting T to use the Type tool doesn't actually change the tool) but now editing text can take up to 10 minutes with more than one file open. I can't make a screencast at the moment since I had to reinstall 15.0.1 to complete the project on time but the filesize we're talking about is 50-75mb, ~60 pages or so with about 300 linked images (it's a catalog).

10. [ID-4263189][CPU Mode][MAC]Selection of objects does not register immediately

    I am trying to use the new 2025 version of InDesign - but it is really unusable. Running latest version (20.3) on Macos (15.4). Mac Studio with M2 Max CPU and 32 GB memory.

    One major issue I am having is that when I select a text box, it will actually not select the box until I move the mouse again. I click the box and nothing happens. When I start moving the mouse - it suddenly gets selected. If I do not move the mouse - nothing is selected - until I move the mouse. This makes it impossible to use.

    I've seen some tip on Document Font folder or Contextual Task Bar or Magnet app - but none of those are relevant for me.

    InDesign 2024 version works fine and it does not have these issues.

    I did a test on my Macbook Pro (Apple Silicon) - and no issue there - even using the same mouse as on the Mac Studio.

    I see some posts that Adobe has fixed InDesign with latest update - but that is definitely not correct...

    I uploaded a video to YouTube showing the issue. In the video one can see the pointer icon changing to the selection symbol when I actually click, but as you can see, the text box is not actually selected until I move the pointer.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erPZA0_w7gM

    Workaround:
    - Switch to GPU mode
    - Downgrade InDesign to v20.0.1.032

11. Data Merge merges only first record repeatedly

    Using InDesign for Windows v18.5.

    First of all, I TRIED to upload the InDesign file in question to this forum, and get an error message stating that uploading of InDesign files is not allowed. In an InDESIGN FORUM?

    The issue here is the failure of InDesign to properly merge records from a CSV/TXT document. I have a source document (tab-delim text) and multiple fields in the InDesign document. (I am NOT trying to place multiple records per page. It's a single record with multiple tab-delim fields per page.) When I do a preview of the merge, the preview looks perfect, all records imported and in the right place. When I try to export that same merge into a PDF file, it merges ONLY the first record of the data, repeatedly, for the entire merge. I've tried recreating the file from scratch, per other users in other forums, but that doesn't work.

12. footnote reference formatting is wrong

    The new version 19 and 19.0.1 shows footnote reference numbers incorrectly When paragraph justification is set to Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer. It must be set to the basic Adobe Paragraph Composer to work.

    The problem is the final digit (if the reference is greater than 9) does not apply the character style formatting defined in the Footnote Options setup, so the last digit is shown as normal.

    The same issue happens on running head page numbers with a style applied, but only on the right hand page. It also happens on cross-reference numbers. A workaround is to place a character after the number, which is not always possible.

13. Unable to kill find missing fonts background process

    If the preferences setting to automatically find missing fonts is set, there are three major issues:

    1/ The background process never times out,
    2/ The background process severely degrades InDesign performance for everything else, and
    3/ There is no way to manually kill that background process. If we could, then issues 1 and 2 would not be such problems. If the fonts aren't found, or the internet connection is hinky, or if the Adobe servers are under heavy load or having other issues, we could just kill that background process and then either try again later or design an workaround without those missing fonts.

    The ability to kill this background process is a glaring design gap. We should be able to kill it, or at least disable it for a document (like we can disable automatic preflight).

14. Outlined text

    I'm using InDesign v 16.1 for a Mac. I just encountered an issue with outlining text. As you can see in the "Display in Preview" png, all of the text is visible and matches what I actually see in InDesign. All of this text is outlined by pressing command + O. When you look at the "Display in Acrobat" png, the yellow outlined text appears to be transparent. Again, all of the text in the png files are outlined. This issue is also visible at our print shop. The workaround I found is just to keep the text live, but there are times where I need the text to be outlined. Any guidance on this issue would be appreciated.

15. InCopy character panel blank

    My coworker is on a PC running InCopy 2019 and has had an issue with InCopy since CC2017. The panels (not sure which ones are there other than the character panel) move from the side to the top and go blank and are utterly unusable. Turning them off and on again doesn't do anything. Any ideas on making it usable again?

16. Opening a document now causes lag for about 30 seconds, where I have no control

    1. Version of Adobe InDesign: 17.1
    2. Steps to reproduce the issues: a. Open document from the Mac Finder. (This lag happens whether I start with InDesign open or closed. b. I have zero control of anything while a progress indicator spins for about 30 seconds. c. A font error dialog pops up, and then I can finally control InDesign, starting by dismissing that dialog. Expected result: I expect instant control of InDesign, since my computer isn't that old and it's a pro model. Actual result: Slowness, lag - way too much, considering most of my documents are 8 pages long with maybe 30 or so links to placed graphics... The test file I'm attaching has a bunch of master pages and a bunch of embedded graphics, but the thing is, it used to be that there was no lag with this document... Now there's lag. That's an issue. Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional): Test file attached.

17. Share for Review has ISSUES

    I have been using the Share for Review feature for almost two years now for my employer to review documents that I am creating for them. I use it almost daily and never had any issues until the updates that came a month or two ago.

    Since the Share for Review feature was updated I can...

    1. No longer copy text from the comments that are made to paste into my document. This is troublesome because I am generally laying out curriculum that has been written and there is constant text edits being made during our review process, so I was copying 75% of my comments and can no longer do that. Me having to type out their changes generally results in further problems and changes that need to be made.

    2. The comments they are making if they are highlighting specific words to remove/edit are not displaying correctly INSIDE InDesign. If I view the comments through the web, they will display correctly.
       I.E. I was just editing a paragraph where they were adding paragraph breaks. In InDesign, it highlighted half of a word in the middle of a sentence and the comment said "add paragraph break here". I knew that couldn't be right, so I viewed it on the web and the real comment was on a completely different sentence. When comments are not highlighting the right words or displaying correctly in InDesign, everyone is getting confused and it is further complicating our review and editing process.

    3. When I go to update my link after making requested edits on my file, it takes FOREVER. It used to update in seconds, and now I will get a spinning wheel for 10+ minutes. This is super annoying and delays all of my process for absolutely no reason.

    PLEASE FIX THESE ISSUES. It's so frustrating when it's something I use every day and it used to work completely fine until it was "updated".

18. The character sequence -xx'-x crashes InDesign 2021 (v 16.0) on Mac

    The sequence of letters -xx'-x crashes InDesign 2021 (v 16.0) as soon as you write this sequence yourself, copy or mark a letter from it (e.g. to change the text size) or do a search for this string, in a normal text field.

    To reproduce the issue, simply write -xx'-x into a text field in InDesign 2021 or copy it into the text field. The X'x can be replaced here by other normal letters, upper and lower case doesn't seem to matter. The crash seems not to happen if the last X is a special character like ";" or "! Furthermore, there must be two or more letters before the '-x
    
    The Font-Family also doesn´t play a role here. We tested it with different fonts.

    Since we have a lot of documents with this letter combination, we cannot edit them in Indesign 2021 anymore. On InDesign 2020 it worked without problems.

    Tested with InDesign 2021 (German Version) on different Imacs and Macbooks with macOS Catalina 10.15.6 and Imac with Mojave macOS 10.14.

19. Outlined text

    I'm using InDesign v 16.1 for a Mac. I just encountered an issue with outlining text. As you can see in the "Display in Preview" png, all of the text is visible and matches what I actually see in InDesign. All of this text is outlined by pressing command + O. When you look at the "Display in Acrobat" png, the yellow outlined text appears to be transparent. Again, all of the text in the png files are outlined. This issue is also visible at our print shop. The workaround I found is just to keep the text live, but there are times where I need the text to be outlined. Any guidance on this issue would be appreciated.
