exporting a book to PDF (dialogue box
When exporting a book to PDF from Indesign CC2019 on Mac OSX Mojave, the export pdf dialogue box ("Generating PDF") displays (showing progress / page count) but it can't be hidden (or covered over) by switching to another app or browser window like it used to. Eg if it was z layers in CSS, it is always sitting on top and getting in the way of multi-tasking whilst exporting the book file.

Adobe Digital Editions bug in Windows
Fixed-format epubs created by InDesign (17.2.1) show correctly in Adobe Digital Editions (14.5) on Mac (OS 12.3) but incorrectly in Adobe Digital Editions (14.5) on Windows (10). I have attached screenshots that show the difference. I was unable to upload the original files.

Keyboard input problem
Windows 10. ID 14.0.1
This is similar to the 'missing first character' issue many of us have seen in the past. What happens, randomly, your keyboard input doesn't quite work. You can try various shortcuts and they simply will not work. You have to create (or go into) a text box, type some text.. and THEN keyboard shortcuts will suddenly work again.
Acrobat does the same thing.
Very annoying that when you think you've saved a file that it has NOT been saved.. you only find out when going to close a file that your 'ctrl S' did not…5 votes -

Bug Buttons and forms

in order to make an interactive PDF, I first created my bookmarks and then my buttons.
Yesterday I programmed them all with the "hit target" function to go to the desired page. Everything worked.
Today, I reopen the document and half of my buttons got deprogrammed, they are all with my 1st bookmark on the list.
I was still on the CS6 a week ago and it all worked perfectly!
In order to deliver my client in EMERGENCY, I have to save in idml and bring out my old Mac with CS6 to finalize it.…1 vote -

Book file issue
Using ID 17.0.01 x64 on Windows 11, when closing all files, but not the .indb file, the files disappear and and screen reverts to the opening screen. Under Window, the book file appears and when clicking on it, the book file shows up in the upper left hand corner of the screen. Not where I put it at the top of the right panel. Plus, it shows the last file closed wasn't saved in the book.
Previously, the book file remained open, visible where I placed it, and the files were saved and showing saved.1 vote -
InDesign Review Feature
My coworker and I are both suddenly facing major problems with the review functionality with Adobe InDesign 16.1 (Windows). This has only been occurring for about 10 days. When the review function actually works instead of an error or just loading nonstop (only works 30% of the time now), the links often don't work in the end for other viewers to review and show up as an error. Now, when this works, the comments from the review link are not showing up where they were placed, and when we go in to implement them manually in InDesign from…

Story that spans several pages not adding to InCopy Assignment.
When I create an InCopy file the bulk of the document does not add to the assignment. When I right click on the story there is no InCopy option in the drop down. If I go to the assignments panel I cannot add the story to the assignment.
Just updated to InDesign cc 2018. (13.0.1) Running El Capitan.

Page/Spread Duplicate and Place doesn't work after last update update
When duplicating pages (or spreads) using Option (on Mac) and dragging inside "Pages" window, it no longer allows you to drag this duplicate anywhere in the page order list, but all the way at the end. This is extremely inefficient now and a lot more work to re-organize pages again after the duplicate is made. This is frustrating since this was a feature before and now it's gone. Please, bring it back.

locked into program
While working in InDesign, I have to right click anywhere in the window to be able to access anything else on my computer. It's like it doesn't want me working in any other program except InDesign so it's trapping me. This has been a problem since pretty much the first day I started using creative cloud. There are 6 other people in my office that have never had this problem and we all use the same version of InDesign.

InDesign Effects applied directly to Text do not update when the text is changed
Some effects that are applied directly to the text do not update when the text is changed. If the same effect is assigned to the text frame (object), this error does not occur. Switching to GPU Preview or GPU Acceleration on the Mac or turning off the same option has no effect on the error.

text bold italic regular
Cannot easily change text with bold italics and bold regular to non-bold italics and non-bold regular.
- On Windows 7, InDesign 14.0.1 x64:
- In a normal text window, type "regular" in non-bold regular Times New Roman font.
- Then type "italics" in non-bold italic Times New Roman Font.
- Select the entire "regularitalics" phrase.
- Click Ctrl-B. The entire phrase correctly becomes bold.
- Click Ctrl-B again. Expected behavior: The entire phrase should revert back to regular. Actual behavior: Only "italics" reverts back to regular. The "regular" remains bold.
1 voteHi,
Please let us know if using the short cut keys ctrl+shift+b/i helps to change the font style.Thanks,

Unable to drag & drop images within text frame through custom plugin on Indesign CC2020
We have a custom plugin, we are using this plugin since Indesign CS4. We have an option to drag & drop images from this plugin pallet into Indesign Layout. With the latest CC2020 SDK, we have upgraded our plugin from CC18 to CC2020 & it works fine on all other functionality except "Drag & drop" within text frame.
We didn't made any update to the code, the same option works fine till CC2019. Is there any known issue with CC2020 sdk for drag & drop?
Note: Drag & drop allows us to place the image at left top corner of…
