indesign crashed
I am currently using Zoho's virtual space.
For the past two weeks, I have been experiencing a problem where Adobe InDesign crashes whenever I attempt to use the "Save As" function. This issue did not occur previously, but it has become a persistent problem. I kindly request assistance in resolving this matter.1 vote -
Crashes when font file is moved *every single time*
This will crash InDesign (and Illustrator and Photoshop) every single time without fail, all cc 2020 apps I've tested, specifically:
InDesign 15.0.2, Illustrator 24.1, Photoshop 21.1.2
I'm using OSX 10.15.3 Catalina
Try this:
–add a font to ~user/Library/Fonts/MyFontFolderName/ to install. Works with any font, but for example try Adobe's own wonderfully designed Source Serif Pro
–make a new document in InDesign, set some text in that font, eg: Source Serif Pro-Regular, save document (or don't save, same result)
–move the font file, eg: SourceSerifPro-Regular.otf to a sub folder, eg: ~user/Library/Fonts/MyFontFolderName/AnotherFolder/
–app will crash EVERY SINGLE TIME.Once again, this…

"Failed to place PDF" with a PDF file created in Canva
Trying to import a client supplied PDF, created in the paid version of Canva and saved as a CMYK print quality PDF (not flattened). Will not place into InDesign. I've tried various and no import options and it does not work. I have placed this PDF into Adobe Illustrator and Affinity Publisher 2 without issue.

panels keep moving
The tool panels keep changing position, flying out or closing in a seemingly random manner. Certainly their movement is counter productive to any given use.
I've just updated to ID 2019 and my panel positions are all lost. This is after several month of wrestling with the demented behaviour Adobe has given them.
In the 'old' days, one set up the panels how preferred and pretty much left them alone.
Could Adobe please return to this functional panel behaviour and stop them flying out, moving about, or getting lost on each update?
Having to click things open and close don…

Jpeg exported by Indesign have wrong dimensions when combined into PDF in Acrobat
A company needs to export Indesign documents in jpeg format. The jpeg files produced must be combined into a single PDF file. The problem is that the produced PDF does not maintain the original dimensions of the Indesign file.
The same files opened and saved again by Photoshop, instead, produce PDFs with correct dimensions when processed by Acrobat.
Instead of 480.00 x 330.00 mm, the file appears to have the dimensions of 1,999.99x1,374.8 mm.
It should be noted that by exporting the files in PNG format, the problem does not occur.

ID - CMYK separation preview vs. RGB illustrations
Hey there,

Image catalog Script for Contact Sheets Not Working
Since update to Adobe CC 2020, Image catalog script in InDesign doesn't work. The Apple Script version of this sample script always gave me an error, but the Java version always worked. I LOVE this script. WAY better than creating Contact Sheets in Photoshop or Bridge. Please fix this. I use it every week.

ALT key results in stall
Pressing the ALT key - be that for zooming out, using a fitting option, or any other shortcut, slows indesign to the point of non-performance, sometimes for 20 seconds or more. Happens primarily when I'm in a document with more pages/items. Have uninstalled all adobe programs and reinstalled, hasn't fixed.

Share for Review access settings - Public Link not available
I am trying to use the new Share for Review option. As outlined here, I should be able to switch the access options from invitation only to public which should give me the option to have people without an Adobe account review the content by simply inputting a password for access. However, I cannot switch from invitation only to public as I simply have the invitation only option as a fixed option and no dropdown to choose from. Is there an option somewhere that I need to enable first so I can publicly share these files for review? As of…

Data Merge - Can't preview without errors
The apparently long-running Data Merge previewing error!
Occasionally previewing a data merge will permanently ruin exports. The only solution is to create a new document. Happened to me on almost every project I tried - wasted hours and hours.
See this thread and video for more information:

Large Black Cursor only while working in inDesign?
The cursor is still not my default cursor, it is large and black and very annoying. I was wondering if anyone from Adobe has addressed this issue. I have looked at previous post and have not noticed anything that would change the cursor but only change the scaling of the entire program.
