2. Certain dialogue boxes appear partially off screen and can't be moved back on screen

   Certain dialogue boxes appear partially off screen and can't be moved back on screen. For example, the Find/Change dialogue box and the Export dialogue box [specifically export to PDF (Print)] have both become almost unusable for me because important sections of those two boxes are located off screen. See attached screenshots. Dialogue boxes that allow you to expand them by clicking and dragging the edges/corners of the box are less of an issue - they often appear partially off screen, but once they're expanded at all, the whole dialogue box pops back into view. The Find/Change and Export dialogues do not allow this kind of expansion so that trick does not work for them. I've tried all the fixes that I've seen suggested for this issue online, including restarting my computer and changing the resolution of my displays, but none have worked. I've even updated to Windows 11 and that didn't fix it. I am using InDesign 2024 version 19.5 on Creative Cloud Desktop. There are currently no updates available for InDesign.

3. Cannot add CC Library P/C styles to documents more than one at a time

   New problem: suddenly I can't add paragraph/character styles from CC Libraries to documents unless I choose them one-by-one.
   (I'm trying to overwrite a previous version of the same styles, which to date I have done without issue nearly every day for months.)
   I have made no changes to my system (InDesign2018 Version 13.1 on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.4).

   Description of behavior:

   1. Select list of Character (or Paragraph) styles and right-click to use option to add to the current document. "Add" option NOT available.

   2. Select single Character (or Paragraph) style and right click to use option to add to the current document. "Add" option is available.

   (See screenshots below for comparison.)

6. PDF's Exporting at Large File Sizes

   I've been running into an issue with PDF's exporting at large file sizes. This became apparent to me after the 2022 update. Here is an example of how this occurs and disrupts my workflow.

   I recently sent a exported a PDF from an indd project that linked to 13 PSD's. The exported PDF file size came to relatively manageable 10 MBs.

   I later updated the same project, now including 20 linked PSD's. This PDF export came to 184 MBs!

   When I've run into this in the past, I've had to either convert the PSD's to JPG's, or run some kind of other optimization out of Acrobat. This is an OK workaround when in a crunch, but I prefer to keep the workflow of source images to PSD's, intact. The downside to running optimization out of acrobat is noticeable loss in image quality, especially in the red channel of JPG's. In the above example, running optimization out of Acrobat reduced the PDF from 184 MBs to 4 MBs, with some, but not too terrible, loss in image quality.

   It's highly likely that this jump in export size is due to the PSD's. My research has lead me to believe this has something to do with meta data carried over in the PSD's, but it still seems like an extreme shift in export size.

   Any thoughts on what the cause of this extreme file size could be? Can export to PDF image options be refined to mitigate this? Like enhanced image flattening, conversion, or meta data remove (if this is indeed the source of the issue). Are there any options that exist that I'm missing? Though, the variable here seems to be the PSD's themselves.

   I've included systems specs, and PDF export settings as attachments for reference, below.

   System Specs:
   Windows 10 Pro 20H2
   AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950x 16-Core 3.5 GHz
   128 GB RAM
   NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti

7. Spell Check Defaulting to Check Document. Needs to Default to Current Story

   Spell Check in Indesign is defaulting to checking the entire document. I need it to check the story. Or, at the very least, allow me the option of telling it to default to checking the current story.

9. broken links from placed .docx file

   When I place a .docx file into InDesign, any link that contains an anchor tag (like this-- .pdf#page=543) is removed. This happens even when I check to "Preserve Styles and Formatting..." from the import options popup.

   Not only that, the linked text still shows hyperlink formatting, but when I highlight it to recreate the link, the "create new hyperlink" button in the hyperlink panel remains grayed out (removing the hyperlink style has no effect on this--I have to delete and then retype the text before it can be linked).

   The only way I've found to get the links to import correctly is to convert the .docx to a .doc or .rtf file. Since pretty much everyone uses .docx now and there are other formatting issues to contend with when converting a text file, it would be helpful if all links would come over correctly when placing a .docx file.

11. Table Fault

    Please, please, resolve this.

    1. Indesign version 18 (2023)
    2. Issue: Create a two column text frame, or as many you want, and fill with text. For illustration purposes, create a table in the middle of the text frame. Span the table across both columns. Exaggerate the table spacing, to 25 pts before and after.
    3. Expected Result: The text in both columns of the text frame, in accordance with the table spacing, should be (i) equal on both sides of the two columns (ii) the text flow before the table should stop, and the text should continue again after the table. The table should span across all columns and have the option to span across in table options.
    4. Actual: The table spacing is applied on the left side of the text frame but not the right. The text in the right column overwrites the table.
    5. File is uploaded and a screenshot is uploaded.
    6. The workaround does work either. It places in text the middle of column A into column B. It is not right

    See screenshots
    HELP Please. Please resolve.

13. Can't edit page elements when updated from 2024 to 2026 versions of inDesign

    My book that is roughly 200+ pages was created in 2023 and was editable in all versions until I got to 2026. My computer's processing power is not in question, but I can no longer edit elements that were created on previous versions. If I make new pics, text blocks, or anything, those are editable, but nothing else. If I try and revert the file, it warns me that I may LOSE my material if trying to go back.. This is unacceptable. In ever instance I don't want to open the file in the newest version and each time it is updated on my computer "Stealthily" and pushes through the conversion.

    Maybe I'm missing something, is there a setting I need to have ON or OFF in order to edit all aspects of a page?

    If it's not this, then you have a bug that needs to be addressed.

    pic below, you notice the edit border on the text to the left; if I click on the right page text options, nothing happens, it can't be manipulated, selected or changed in any way.

16. Export or Save dialog box partially hangs if you go to another app's window.

    When exporting to PDF or saving, if you go to another app or Finder window while the dialog box is open, it partially hangs. For example, if you've called up the Export box then hop over to Finder to verify the name/location of the folder to which you want to export, then go back to ID to complete the export. Everything that is normally blue ("save" "export," the name of the file, etc.), turns gray. You can click on it but nothing happens. You have to either cancel and close/reopen the document, or if you have unsaved changes, it hangs in the loop of "save changes" but you cannot click on any of the options (save, cancel, don't save). If you are lucky, you can keep navigating/clicking to get out of the hung loop. If not, you have to do a Force Quit.

    System specs: Mac Sonoma 14.2.1, InDesign CC 19.1

17. Indesign 14.0.1 pixellated output in export to PDF

    Indesign 14.0.1
    Export to PDF using press quality job option does not produce high quality images the way the previous version used to do and all ends up pixellated at screen resolution only. The only way I know of producing press ready files is now to "package book for print", in which case, if you select your usual press ready PDF option, the conversion definitely works.

20. Myriad VF has a taller Ascent Baseline than Myriad Pro

    Myriad VF is supposed to be a variable version of Myriad Pro, so I was trying to use it in tandem/to replace Myriad Pro in the document I am working on. The huge problem is, for some reason the Ascent Baseline on Myriad VF is much taller than it should be, which then when I try to replace the font, it completely messes up everything. 

    I also have Myriad Variable Concept on my computer, (which is apparently supposed to only show up in Illustrator, or something? But it shows up in InDesign for me.) And it properly matches the Ascent baseline of Myriad Pro. 

    All 3 of them match on every baseline except Ascent too, so I’m thinking this is a bug. It only seems to effect things in InDesign, I’m not getting any misalignment in Photoshop or Illustrator, but I’m also not seeing all the same text box options in those programs that InDesign gives.
