1. Paragraph style not applying when selecting the wanted style

   Indesign version 20.0.1

   When highlighting the desired text that I wish to apply the paragraph style to and clicking on the preferred paragraph style. The click animation attempts to very briefly 'grab' the style rather than select it. This works on any paragraph style I try.

   I have a similar issue when selecting a colour swatch to apply, the only option is to grab and drag the desired swatch to where it is needed.

   I also cannot change the font when selecting the text I wish to change and selecting a font from the drop down.

   This is only a recent issue for me that I have experienced over the past week or so.

   I have tried using older versions of Indesing such as 19.5 & 19.4. And am still having the same issues.

2. Updated version 21.0.2 features not working

   Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server: 21.0.2, updated 12.01.2025
   Steps to reproduce the issues: There are multiple issues occurring.
   1. Open existing file, last saved on 11.03.2025.
   2. App freezes when trying to use any function, e.g. copy/paste, duplicate page. Takes up a few minutes for any function to complete.
   3. When trying to save the file, I have to save as a new file.
   4. When exporting to PDF, does not Use InDesign Document Name as the Output File Name despite being selected. If selecting Range, only allows All Pages in dropdown. Does not export accessibility tags despite having both Create Tagged PDF and Use Structure for Tab Order are selected.

   Expected result: for the file to use the document name as the PDF file name, for it to be able to export only a range, and to have accessibility tags preserved in PDF.

   Actual result:
   1. Freeze and lag with each step of the process.
   2. File will not export to PDF. Sometimes getting a Failure pop up but cannot identify any issue.
   3. Have to choose option to open file with, but it does not save the file in the location I selected. I have to resave it in order to run Accessibility Checker.
   4. No tags export with file even though everything is properly mapped in InDesign and exports made 11.3.25 retained the tags.

   Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional)

3. Menu item "Convert footnotes and endnotes" missing

   Although my software is up to date, the option "Convert footnotes to endnotes" is missing from my "Type" menu item (image). The interface is in portuguese, but you can see there are only four itens on the footnote/endnote area, the fifth ("Convert footnote to endnote") is really missing...
   I tried unistalling and installing InDesign again from Creative Cloud but it didn´t solve this issue. This menu item is also unavailable on Edit>Menus...

5. Publish Online Analytics slow or failing

   Many of us have raised the publish online dashboard analytics slow loading and/or complete failure to work and it still seems to ne ignored.

   We have noticed across our design team that analytics seems to work differently across different accounts. Accounts with less documents published online have greater success and speed in returning analytics. Those with over a 100 documents for example have limited success.

   We think this maybe due to that when you request the analytics for a 'single' document Adobe systems are not just loading that 'single' document. They are processing the whole account and all documents within.

   This would makes sense in that an account with less documents can retrieve statistics for 1 year or 'since published' options. But an account with hundreds of documents 'for us' is limited to 60 to 90 day statistics.

   We assume this 'whole account' processing must be the case because when statistics for a single document are received for say a 1 year date range - all other documents can be 'instantly' viewed for that 1 year date range without any reloading or searching of the data.

   Can Adobe please fix this or at least tell us if it will NOT be fixed.

6. Moving Pages calls for use of Absolute Page Number

   1. InDesign 21.0.1 x64 (on Windows 11)
   2. I want to move a page from a document where I have changed the Numbering & Section Options so that the document includes multiple pages with the same page number. I open the document that includes the page I want to move, and open the document which will receive that page. I select a page in the pages panel, right click, and select "Move Page." The Move Pages dialog box appears, and I select the document and location where I want the page to be moved and click OK.
   3. The highlighted page will be copied to the correct location in the destination document.
   4. Instead, I receive an error message asking me to identify the correct page using the absolute page number. In earlier versions of InDesign, if I tried to use the Move Pages dialog box by simply typing in a page number, it would ask me to define the page using the absolute page number, but as long as I had highlighted the page I wanted to move and then activated the Move Page function, InDesign would automatically identify the page I wanted to move without asking me to define the absolute page number.
   5. I have uploaded images of the dialog box and the error message.

7. InDesign 2023 18.0 /Users/user/Library/Application Support/Adobe InDesign/Version 18.0/en_US/InDesign Recovery/ filling up with DBTmp files

   We have an automated process using InDesign to export the XML out of a .indd files. We are experiencing a scenario where InDesign is leaving behind numerous DBTmp files in /Users/user/Library/Application Support/Adobe InDesign/Version 18.0/en_US/InDesign Recovery/ to the point that our Mac is filling up a 500 Gig SSD. These files do not clean up after Quitting InDesign, a Reboot, attempting the Reset InDesign Preferences Shift-Control-Option-Command startup of InDesign. These files are also locked. In our scenario, we hit 119,000 files or so and InDesign just quit working due to the drive being full. I have attached a list of the files to this request

8. Color picker HSB interface not working correctly

   Indesign 2021 v16.1

   While using the new HSB interface in the Color Picker, when any of the the "HSB" radials are selected, the chosen color values change to something completely different. Please see the uploaded pictures for an example.

   When the cursor is dropped into the any of the CMYK value entires, the color changes back to what was intended.

   If the selected object still has a color thats chosen in HSB is sampled and applied to another object. the new object's color will show up in the color picker as the intended color but with a in-gamut color option of the wrong color below it.

10. Export to Fixed Layout EPUB - Poor Image Quality

    I am currently working on a graphic novel project that I am planning on submitting to apple books as an epub file. The files were created in adobe illustrator and subsequently, linked into adobe indesign to create the final published product. I have noticed that the image quality when exported to epub is far inferior to when that same file is exported to a pdf file. That is regardless of the alterations that you make to PPI or other options (such as altering between PNG, JPG and other file formats) prior to exporting to epub. I have adjusted the PPI to 300 and still the color of the document and the overall image quality lack. I find myself having to ***** open the epub to exchange out the indesign generated files for files that I optimized in illustrator (which can be a painfully tedious process if you have a ton of pages/images to optimize). These newly optimized files look far better at a fraction of the size of the indesign generated files. I located this forum thread from 2011 that actually seems to correspond to my problem (https://forums.adobe.com/thread/871355).

    Please let me know if you need any additional information.

    Regards,

    Tom

11. Resized vectors not displaying properly in high quality display mode on drag

    14.0.2 x64 on Windows 10

    Steps:
    1. High Quality display mode (default settings)
    2. Place any EPS vector file.
    3. Attempt to resize it while holding ctrl-shift to maintain ratios.

    Expected result:
    The vector file, resized.

    Actual result:
    Grey box. I have to zoom in or out to get the screen to "refresh" and show the correct image.

    Similar issue happens with placed AI file. Very simple, clearly. Just a triangle. Made in the latest version of Illustrator.

    The Youtube button is an EPS.

    Related: If I use the option "Greek Vector Graphics on Drag" it performs correctly, only now I'm viewing a low res image momentarily where on a Mac I was not. It's a "fix" but it's not an acceptable solution to a feature that should work.

12. line break between XML elements not behaving as expected

    I have some XML in this format:

    <ROOT><DOCUMENT>
    <CHAPTER>Chapter One</CHAPTER>
    <CONTENT>This is what happened in Chapter 1.</CONTENT>
    <CHAPTER>Chapter Two</CHAPTER>
    <CONTENT>This is what happened in Chapter 2.</CONTENT>
    </DOCUMENT></ROOT>

    I have a pre-tagged template where the <CHAPTER> tag maps to a paragraph style with Keep Options, start paragraph=Next page (i.e., every new chapter should start on a new page). The <CONTENT> tag maps to a basic paragraph style, and <ROOT> and <DOCUMENT> are not mapped.

    Notice there is a line break in the XML after <DOCUMENT>.

    After importing, the result is that page 1 appears blank (because of the line break) and Chapter One starts on page 2. If I go into the story editor and remove the line break so it looks like <DOCUMENT><CHAPTER>, it fixes the display so Chapter One starts on page 1.

    To replicate, import the test XML into the test template, both found here:
    https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xB39ObvHsGSQVviq1d-H0QkZ1Dk65sRQ?usp=sharing

    I had asked in the forums if there was a solution for removing this line break automatically, either with XSLT or a script in InDesign (we are not able to change the original XML output),. I was told it might be a bug -- unexpected behavior with a return that is outside of the content that it should be placing.

    I have some XML in this format:

    <ROOT><DOCUMENT>
    <CHAPTER>Chapter One</CHAPTER>
    <CONTENT>This is what happened in Chapter 1.</CONTENT>

13. Adobe Templates - Title Blocks won't allow editing in Modern Media Kit Layout

    Modern Media Kit Layout
    Chic Media Kit Layout

    I would like to use these Adobe templates, but the top title blocks will not allow editing. All of the other text box elements on the page react when you click on them, allowing you the opportunity to edit them. I can't seem to edit "YOUR TITLE HERE" or "MEDIA KIT 2017"

    Am I missing something about how to properly edit the title blocks on those templates? I can't even click on it... no option to capture/click/highlight the "YOUR TITLE HERE" section.

    Guidance is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

14. Indesign Auto-Save No Longer Included in App

    Adobe InDesign Version 19.2
    Using MacBook Pro Max M3 16-Inch, Nov 2023
    Running MacOS Sonoma Version 14.3.1

    Apparently there was previously an option in InDesign which auto-saves your documents as you go (with options in Preferences to specify how often you wished the app to auto-save the active document from 1 to 60 minutes). This feature is similar to what Adobe Premiere Pro app has -- even while saving via the "Save As" feature (which overwrites a previous version with the same file name), the auto-save application feature saves the document as you work with it, so that you can go back to previously saved versions to retrieve a version which which predates any lost data, or newly created errors that were saved as overwritten versions to the working document.

    My example: I mistakenly "Placed" a PDF document within a page's main text box (instead of Placing it on the following page). It replaced all of the extensive text on that page with this PDF image. Not having realized that (as I was looking at the second page where I also placed the PDF correctly) I "Saved As" the file, which permanently deleted / overwrote all the text I'd spent an hour or more writing and formatting. Thus, there was no Auto-Saved version that predated my error.

    It's necessary to re-add this Auto-Save feature to InDesign (as it used to exist) so we can retrieve lost data due to the issue described.

15. WE MUST USE A SHARED SERVER

    Files can randomly corrupt when using a shared server? Every respectable business uses a shared server! We can't put confidential info on employee desktops as is recommended by Adobe because they can't support a shared server! At minmum if you can't support a shared server then make back up files which can be accessed if a file is corrupt. And no, your recovery option doesn't work when a back up file is corrupt. I've just missed a deadline, spent a ton of money on lost work and need to recreat all the lost work. Thanks Adobe........for nothing!!! Adapt to your users needs, don't ask your users to adapt to yours!!!

16. Document grid hiding guides

    When unchecking "Grids in back" in preferences>grids, the document grid hides all guides that are places on it.

    That is, if for instance I place a ruler guide at the 2mm mark, and it happens to fall on the document grid (or its subdivisions), it will not show.

    That is even when the guides are in a different color.

    This is extremely problematic, especially in cases where I want to have an image/solid color as a background for my spread, and I want to make use of the document grid and also specially placed guides.

    Please fix this, or at least make it an optional preference that we can uncheck.

    Thanks a lot,
    Alon

17. 'Use Spacing' *STILL* not working for multiple pages using Page Tool

    1. Indesign Beta v 18.9
    2. Turn off Facing pages and deselect 'Allow pages to shuffle'

    • create multiple pages and then 'attach' one to another, by clicking and dragging a page alongside another in the pages panel, until you see the grey 'hook' then release it, so they stick together.

    • Now select multiple pages using the Page tool and the 'Use Spacing' option appears at the top. Type in a number, say, 50mm

    1. Expected result: All pages move 50mm away from each other, and you should be able to attach as many pages together as required for the task

    2. Actual result: everything stays the same, no spacing between 'artboards/pages' is automatically inserted, and you can only attach 10 pages together.

    NOTES:
    • I was hoping this issue was resolved in Beta.

    • I've tried 3 different computers (MacBook Pro M1 Max, iMac 2017 5k, MacBook Pro 15inch 2015) and doesn't work on any of them.

    It's a feature that would save a lot of designers working with Point of sale and event exhibition design, to be able to organise 'artboards/pages' directly in InDesign.

    Thanks

18. In a pixel-dimensioned InDesign document the pixels are always magnetic. There is no option like in Illustrator to deselect 'magnetic pixels

    In all version of InDesign, as far as I can remember, pixel dimensioned documents have magnetic pixels. In Illustrator there is an option to deselect magnetic pixels. In InDesign it fails. At least, I think. And the technical assistant from Adobe thinks so.
    For instance: if you try to draw a rectangle 3.4 x 4.2 pixels, you can not.

19. pdf compare

    Hi Team,

    While performing Textual compare in Acrobat DC if there is any changes in optinal hypen in a Paragraph it not shown in the compare report both Textual and Visual.

    But if we perform the same test in Acrobat 7 optional hypen changes show perfectly. We are ready to use Acrobat DC but becuase of this issue we are still using Acrobat 7. We mentioned this compare issue number of times but no action was taken so far.

    I attached Compare report (Text and visual) of Acrobat 7 and DC. I also attched the Acrobat DC version that we used, and Acrbat DC compare setting. Also attached sample PDF for your reference.

    Thanks

20. Font and color selection is not working

    Hello.
    I am using Indesign 2025 which was automatically updated on my computer on M1 Max MBP with Sequoia 15.1.1.

    When i try to change a swatch color on an object or a paragraph style on text, indesign will not allow me to make my selection. It will register the selection for a brief moment, and then the icon will deselect the option and my request was not taken into account. This bug is very frustrating as it is not allowing me to make any changes needed.
    This is a relatively new bug that was not there in indesign 2024 when i did this last a few weeks/months ago.
