2. Problem Selecting Hebrew vowels and diacritics

   Windows 11
   Indesign 19 x64

   Problem Selecting Hebrew vowels and diacritics especially when there are Hebrew and English mixed in the paragraph, it seems like there is no visual distinction to determine what is being selected. This is so frustrating, and makes it impossible to use in the long run.

3. Placing an ICML file in an InDesign file ignores multiple artboards in AI files if they are embedded

   If you have an AI file with multiple artboards which is an embedded anchored object in a text frame it will always revert back to the first artboard when you place the ICML in InDesign.

   1. Create a new InDesign file.
   2. Create an AI file with two artboards and one simple object in each.
   3. Create a text frame in InDesign.
   4. Place the AI file in the text frame and choose the second artboard.
   5. Embed the AI file.
   6. Export the text frame as an ICML file.
   7. Place the ICML file into the document (not check in/check out).

   What happens:
   1. The "Pages" panel will show the correct preview.
   2. The "Links" panel will show the correct preview.
   3.. The text frame that is created will show the first artboard.

   Images:
   1. AI file with two artboards.
   2. Embedded image of artboard 2.
   3. After placing the ICML into the InDesign file it has reverted to display artboard 1, but the previews in the "Links" and "Pages" palettes are still correct.

   If you have an AI file with multiple artboards which is an embedded anchored object in a text frame it will always revert back to the first artboard when you place the ICML in InDesign.

4. Indesign 2024 Unable to Recognize Variable Fonts from Documents Created with Previous Version

   InDesign 2024 (v19.0) fails to recognize variable fonts from documents created in previous version. Specifically, Helvetica Now Variable weights and widths are reported as missing. Running MacOS Sonoma (but the same system opens the file without issue when using InDesign 2023… can’t be an OS issue.)

5. Data merge panel blank

   Data Merge WAS failing to display data field placeholders in either existing documents or new ones. I'm getting a completely Data Merge blank panel when importing a new source file, and when opening an existing document with a linked file, I was only seeing a preview of one of the records.
   This persisted through a number of workspace configurations (most including a second monitor) until I broke the Data Merge panel off from the others, and cycled through the panel size presets (the up/down chevrons to the left of the panel title) - only once returned to 'standard' size did the Data Merge panel again display the merge tags, and allow the preview button to be clicked etc

6. Variable font changes to Italic when a custom axis value is set, without user input. Also, the Italic axis cannot be controlled.

   This may be related to a somewhat similar Illustrator bug:
   https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/46249144-variable-font-changes

   Summary:
   1. Variable fonts that have separate but related roman/italic font files are handled badly by InDesign (and Illustrator). In InDesign, if you set a custom axis value such as Weight or Optical Size, the font changes to Italic immediately. This issue occurs in fonts such as Roboto Serif and Apple SF Pro, which are well-tested, popular, and important by many measures. It also occurs in fonts that have internal data that is known to be good, at least as far as FontBakery testing shows. It doesn’t occur in single-font-file variable fonts such as Acumin or Inter, which have built-in "slnt" axes.
   2. As a secondary but related issue, there should actually be an Italic slider or toggle for a variable font, if that axis is specified in the font’s STAT table.

   Version of InDesign: 18.2.1 (latest as of May 25, 2023). Also tested in latest prerelease, v18.4.

   Steps:
   1. Set some type with a font like Roboto Serif [variable].
   2. Open the variable font axes panel, and change an axis like Weight. The font will change to its Italic version, without user input. There is no clear way to change it back to Upright, without selecting a named instance like "SemiBold" – but that largely defeats the purpose of the font being variable.

   Expected result:
   A variable font should be able to have a custom weight value, without snapping to Italic. Likewise, there should actually be an Italic slider or toggle, if that axis is specified in the font’s STAT table.

   Actual result:
   It is impossible to set an upright variable font with a custom weight.

   Test fonts:
   https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto+Serif?query=roboto+serif

7. Adobe Caslon Pro: Glyph as bullet does not function

   InDesign version 18.2.1 (Windows 10 x64). I would like to use a glyph as a bullet (the opentype digit 3 of Adobe Caslon Pro - an acorn). In the paragraph style box for my "Bulleted list" style, I am trying to add the bullet. When I click "add" and then click "ok," a standard round black dot appears in my list of bullet characters to choose from. If I try to add my preferred glyph (or any of the other opentype glyphs from the font's set, for that matter), the program tells me: "The selected bullet already appears in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box with this font and style association. Specify a different font or style, or select a different bullet." I also cannot add the glyph as bullet manually in the lists window. In short, adding a glyph as bullet is not functioning. There has been extensive discussion of this issue on the Adobe Support Community. Many people have suggested numerous solutions, but none have worked. For steps attempted to resolve the issue, see: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/glyph-as-bullet-not-functioning-in-paragraph-styles/m-p/13723795#M523395. One user has pointed out the encoding of ornaments in the most recent version of the font as an issue. I hope that you will consider remedying this apparent bug. Thank you.

10. Persistent place in Creative Cloud folders

    I would love it if my location within a cloud folder was persistent. In other words, if I wasn't always put back to the root directory of my Creative Cloud files. As it is, I have to navigate back into my folders each time I want to save or place or do almost anything. This wastes a lot of time.

11. InDesign CC2023 forces paragraph in overset

    Since the update to InDesign v18.0 (CC2023) the first line of a Paragraph with custom Bullet (Numbering) text, gets forced in overset when the first word is longer than 8-9 characters. They don't flow to the next paragraph and there is still enough space to keep the word in the Text Frame.
    In the example you'll see two Text Frames with one with the word "Duurzaamheid" cut in two and the second in overset with no space between "Duur" and "zaamheid" wich forces everything in overset. In InDesign 17.4 everything works as desired. Uploading an InDesign-file was not possible so you can download the file here: https://shared-assets.adobe.com/link/0a625433-b9e6-45ae-7b5d-c80e212e3560

12. Critical Bug with Font embedding on PDF Export - InDesign 17.2 and up

    OS: Windows 10
    Version: InDesign 17.2 and 17.2.1

    After the update to 17.2 and 17.2.1 the font embedding is not working properly anymore on PDF Export. It does not matter if we export to PDF/X-3 or smallest file size.

    The font in question here is Roboto Slab.
    After a downgrade to 17.1 everything worked properly. An upgrade to 17.2.1 again produced the same error.

    Expected result: propper font integration
    Actual result: Missing embedded font, text is torn apart, missing characters

    Please see attached images for export result and error message

13. high CPU usage version 17.2

    as referred in these posts there is a performance problem with indesign that coming from version 17.0 and still exist(version 17.2):

    https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/44374644-high-cpu-usage-2022-17-0-x64

    https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/44775886-high-cpu-use-with-version-17-1

    No answer from Adobe , No fix , nothing unfortunately. It uses about 20 % of CPU when you open Indesign , it does not matter there is a document that is opened or not , it uses 20% of CPU all the time. non of other Adobe's 2022 apps have this weird problem.

14. Unable to print using Separations with trap Application Built In

    When sending a 2+ color job with trap to RIP via Indesign, I keep getting "Printing Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem." This seems to be an issue with the last 3 versions, along with the updates. I've uninstalled print drivers and reinstalled. Deleted cache files. For a short time I was able to print using an older version on Id but its no longer and option. My coworker who is on Mac has no problem printing with trap. Not sure what's going on. I contacted Adobe when the problem first arose and went back and forth with them for over a week, tech even remoted in, nothing was fixed. Anyone else?

15. Anchored text box in a table cell with text threads crashes when cutting

    As the title says. It sounds similar to past bugs.

    First, create a text box and add a table.
    Create a separate, new text box and add a single character in it.
    Anchor the text box to any cell in the table.
    Enable "Show Text Threads" from the View > Extras menu.
    Selecting and attempting to cut the table will lead to a long hang and crash.

    This is on the latest version of InDesign at the moment, 17.0. I am on Windows 10 20H2 19042.1288. I can verify this occurring on two separate systems.
    I've included a video walking through the steps to reproduce the crash.

    Buttons and interactivity not working. I'm working on a MAC, latest MacOS, latest versions of all things Adobe. On export of my document to PDF, hover states no longer show for buttons, there's a huge lag on the response from buttons, and I'm also having a bizarre issue with clicks of buttons creating a box the shape of the button that is a preview of the page its supposed to jump to. All of this worked fine for me until a few weeks ago and all of a sudden, it no longer functions. Can anybody suggest ways to troubleshoot and find a fix?

17. Major Preview Glitch

    I'm having a major glitch with preview screen mode in InDesign. When you toggle it on multiple elements on the page disappear, and this is happening on most documents and has only started within the last few days since the the last update. This is a major glitch when working on clients work when tings just start disappearing and not knowing if that is how it will print etc. I have uploaded a before and after image to show what disappears.

18. Scrolling loop

    I have a scrolling bug in the share for review feature. Even in a small file of 10 pages, when scrolling too quickly up or down. The scroll gets stuck in some kind of loop, only reloading the page seems to solve the problem. Tried on 2 different macbook pro's and an Imac running Big Sur and High Sierra.

    In the attached video, you first see me scrolling 'gently' which doesn't cause any problems, but after 'flicking' the mouse pad / magic mouse a few times it gets stuck in this loop.

19. Remove color failed

    Hi,

    I'm facing a new issue.

    Version : InDesign Server CC 2021
    Language : VBScript

    Steps to reproducre :
    - Create a new color
    - Try to remove it
    -> Error : Can't remove this color

    Works on InDesign Server CC 2020

    I can't upload my example code file so i put it here :

    Set ID = CreateObject("IndesignServer.Application.2021")

    Set CurDoc = ID.Documents.Add

    Set NewColor1 = CurDoc.Colors.Add
    NewColor1.Name = "Valid1"
    NewColor1.ColorValue = Array(71, 20, 100, 10)

    Set CurItem = CurDoc.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Add
    CurItem.FillColor = NewColor1

    NewColor1.Delete

    CurDoc.Save "D:\Temp\Test_CC2021.indd"
    CurDoc.Close

    ID.Quit

    Thanks

20. AppleScript Finder communication

    InDesign version 16.3.2 with OSX 10.14.6 or later

    Indesign script‘s with calls to the Finder or other Apple apps work running from Apple’s Script Editor, but break when running from InDesign’s Scripts panel. Get an Not Authorized to Send Apple Events to Finder error.

    This breaks when running from the Scripts panel, but worked with InDesign 2020:

    tell application id "com.adobe.InDesign"
    tell application "Finder"
    activate
    display dialog "Hello"
    end tell
    end tell

    Calls to other Adobe apps are ok, so this still works from the panel:

    tell application id "com.adobe.InDesign"
    tell application id "com.adobe.Photoshop"
    activate
    display dialog "Hello"
    end tell
    end tell
