Page Tool 'Use Spacing' does not affect pages, then crashes
As you can see from the screenshot, the use spacing option does not affect pages at all. I've got about 39mm of space between each page, tried typing 5mm and they don't move, even though it displays as 5mm.
No matter how many pages are selected with the Page Tool option, nothing changes.
Previously had a problem with the page align tool, but managed to fix it by resetting Indesign Preferences.
This didn't fix the 'Use Spacing' option though, and after a few times of typing various numbers into the box, it crashes.
Any patches to help with this?

Shared Documents - Make Available Offline Always
For documents I create and that appear under the "Your Files" section, I see that I can choose the "Make Available Offline Always" option. However, for documents that have been shared with me and appear under "Shared With You," I don't see this option.
Will this option be available for shared documents in the near-future?
It's a critical need for my team since our workflow sometimes includes starting a project that has to be handed off to someone else for completion. Having the ability to work offline as the starting lead OR as the finishing lead ensures we can safely…

create outlines
v 14.02
In previous versions, when creating outlines, the newly converted text could simply be ungrouped and the "letters" could be moved and manipulated independently. Now the function is creating each line as a graphic with the only option of releasing compound path to separate the letters. This is hugely inconvenient in a larger block of text. Is this a bug or some new function/option that can be changed? Thanks!1 vote -
