1. 15.0.2 Margins & Columns Issue on Body Page 1 (Windows only)

   Version: 15.0.2

   Steps to reproduce the issues:
   I was teaching 3 students on 15.0.2 (all on Windows) how to create a new document. We set up a 12-page file and specified 3 columns and changed the top margin in the New Document dialog box. With the preview checkbox on, body page 1 did not reflect the changes. We could see the bleed and slug lines appearing when defined. We could also see the A in the corner of the the body page 1 icon in the Pages panel, indicating that A-Master was assigned.

   Expected result
   When you define a new document with Preview enabled, you should be able to see the margins and columns as defined on the first page, behind the dialog box before (and after) you click on OK.

   Actual result:
   After clicking on OK, we discovered that the margins and columns were defined and visible on the A-Master and body pages 2-12. We had to manually re-apply the A-Master to Body page 1. This happened to all three students.

   It is working as expected on my Mac 10.15.3.

2. CC 2020 - Text tool switches back to previous tool, deselects itself

   Indesign 15.1.2 user here.

   Abnormally while im working in big sized files in indesign, whenever i press my Type Tool shortcut (which is "T") cursor goes to Type tool for a second then goes back to usally selection tool.

   When i go and choose the Type tool from left side bar it works.

   Im using windows pro 10. Re installed the program for few times.
   Saw other threads opened for the same issue but looks like you guys closed time bc it is fixed. But it is not! And it is incredibely time consuming!

3. printer

   InDesign fails to print on networked printer.

   Installed HP OfficeJet 6958 using HP "Wizard" to download drivers and install.
   Printer is installed over wireless network (connected through router).

   Same error occurred when installing Canon iP110 using downloaded installer (it installed as Canon iP110 Series WS) (But CAN print to Canon iP110 installed through "add printer")

   All other applications print fine, including PhotoShop and Acrobat.
   InDesign goes through print process (window pops up to show pages being processed), but does not print. File does not appear in printer queue.
   This occurs with all documents - graphics, non-graphics, etc.
   
   I have:
   - Restarted computer
   - Uninstalled/reinstalled InDesign
   - Set Printer Preset to "Default Printer" with all default settings
   - Tried printing a document with only one text box, arial font, nothing in master pages - failed to print

   Reinstalled printer and tried again - same results.

4. Export to ePub / html removes single characters from class names randomly

   On export to ePub and / or html (on Windows 10 64-bit), single characters are removed from class names. This appears to happen randomly (as shown below), but consistently (the same tags will have the same errors after closing and opening the document, after quitting and restarting InDesign, after restarting the computer, and whether exported as ePub or html).

   – span class="Colour" becomes span class="Colo r" (set on character style)
   – h4 class="Event-Month" becomes h4 class="E ent-Month" (though h4 class="Event-Date" is OK) (both set on paragraph style)
   – span class="Link" becomes span class="Lin" (set on character style)

   These same errors are not restricted to one document; they also occur to another document with the same style sheets.

   Changing these names revealed that this issue is related to a specific character in the class name, rather than the number of characters, as follows:

   – changing to span class="Clr" outputs span class="Clr"
   – changing to h4 class="Evnt-Month" outputs h4 class="E nt-Month" (h4 class="Event-Date" remains OK)
   – changing to span class="Lnk" outputs span class="Ln"

   This means that, for some reason, random characters in specific class names are being removed or replaced with spaces.

   Timing: I've updated my Windows 10 Pro to version 20H2, build 19042.630, but I've looked at a backup file created before that update and the issue was still present - therefore it's not related to the recent Windows feature update. The issue was not present last month, when I exported a document with the same settings, using InDesign v15.1.3 x64 - so it's happened after that. Therefore, this issue must be caused by a bug in the 2021 version of InDesign (v16.0 x64). I have confirmed this by exporting the same document as last month in v16, and the same error is present in that exported file.

5. Find/change 15.1.3, Windows 10

   Find/change does not work when a character style (e.g. italic) is selected.
   Have closed program and started it again, and it works for words selected, but could not get it to find this question mark character ?, nor would it change format of a word to italics when this was selected under the Find Format and/or Change Format boxes. Following this I also found it would not find a selected word with no formatting changes requested.

6. Hyperlinks to text anchors deleted when exporting to PDF and using Adobe World-Ready composers

   The Adobe World-Ready composers break hyperlinks to internal text anchors when the document is exported to PDF.

   Internal document links are composed of a source and a destination. The hyperlinks seem to get dropped when the destination is in a paragraph that uses one of the World-Ready composers.

   The hyperlinks appear to work correctly in the hyperlinks panel within InDesign. It's only once the file is exported to a PDF and opened in a program like Acrobat that this issue becomes apparent. When reviewing the output in Acrobat, the destination no longer appears to be present in the document at all.

   This does not seem to be a problem when Adobe Single-line Composer or Adobe Paragraph Composer are used, but this is not always a realistic solution.

   This is an issue in at least the last 2 major versions of InDesign (19.X and 20.X).

7. Cursor should return to starting location after find/change

   1. InDesign 15.0.1 x64 (Windows 10)
   2. I have a document with about 20 pages full of text. As I am reading through the text, I notice an error that I need to fix (such as a misspelled name, for example). I activate the the find/change dialog box and run a search and replace to change all of the misspelled names to the correct spelling. When I am finished, I click done in the Find/Change window.
   3. I may be misremembering, but it seems to me that in past versions of InDesign, when I clicked "Done" my cursor would jump back to the location where it had been when I started the find/change search.
   4. Now, when I choose the "Done" button, the cursor remains at the location of my last correction.

   As I said, I believe that the cursor returning to the original location used to be the default InDesign functionality. However, I might be misremembering. If I am, then please consider this a feedback request, not a bug.

8. Indesign crashing on startup 2017 / 2018 (cloud) - Please Help!!

   InDesign crashes the computer on startup. Not just the program, but restarts the PC. Sometimes it crashes with blue screen sometimes with plain and simple restart without any messages. Program does not even open.

   I'm running Intel I7 8720X, Nvidia 1080 TI, 11 GB, 32 GB ram DDR4, 512 SSD + 3 TB Storage, Windows 10 Home - all updates.

   I'm not sure what is going on. I tried to reinstall it, several times, after I uninstall removing preferences / settings, formatted the drives to kill any existing settings, still same issues. Photoshop, Illustrator and Adobe Acrobat work fine, not indesign.

   I have no issues with any other software on this PC, runs really well.

9. Typographer's Quotes bug?

   I've encountered an issue with Typographer's Quotes not working. I've searched extensively online and tried all the usual suspects (Typographer's Quotes is on in preferences, both Document and without any documents open; reset preferences) but I've been unable to fix them.

   After further investigation, it seems that the issue only occurs using a single typeface (Skolar Latin, installed as OTF versions in Windows 10 Pro itself, rather than via Typekit). When typing double or single quote marks in InDesign with any weight of this typeface, then the straight version is inserted, irrespective of the Typographer's Quotes setting. If I do a search for the relevant double or single quote marks and replace them with the same (as this used to fix the issue on the Mac) it replaces them with the straight version, again, irrespective of the Typographer's Quotes setting. However, if I use any other typeface, the issue doesn't occur - all quotes are inserted with the correct Typographer's version.

   I've also conducted some other investigation and, basically, narrowed it down to being an issue (bug?) with InDesign CC 2018 (version 13.1 x64) on Windows 10 Pro (version 1803, OS build 17134.165; Dell XPS 8930 / i7-8700 / 16GB RAM / GTX-1060 6GB). I've arrived at this conclusion due to the following reasons:

   Typographer's Quotes work fine in Illustrator CC 2018 / Photoshop CC 2018 / Microsoft Word on the same PC - hence not an issue with the OTF files, or anything relating to the font files themselves.

   The issue doesn't occur when opening the same file in the Mac version of InDesign CC 2018 - hence not an issue specifically relating to the document file, InDesign preferences, or and Paragraph / Character Styles, or OTF files (as all are the same as on the PC).

   The issue is reproducible in different InDesign documents on the same PC.

   The issue is reproducible on a different PC.

11. Error in cursor position when dragging items

    Hello, InDesign is not letting me move objects (or any items at all) correctly. As soon as I click and drag anything, the position drasticaly changes to about 50px upper-right. Beyond annoying, this is getting in the way of my work. Besides moving objects on the page, I can't drag and drop between layers, or reorder pages easily. It does not happen when selecting text or dragging to create new objects.

    Anyone know how to correct this? It started last week, out of the blue. I have read some similar issues on the forum, from Mac users, but I'm running on Windows 11, INDD version 19.5 x64. Have already restored the preferences, will try reinstalling the program.

12. IDS on Windows: Extreme slowness in ExtendScript execution via SOAP connection (with weird workaround)

    SETUP

    • IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)

    • Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"

    • Two test scripts (attached):
      Slow script: "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
      Fast script: "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" (approx 275 KB in size)

    PROBLEM

    There are two scripts to compare. They are both of identical size, does nothing but declare a variable and return a string value. However, while execution of one of the scripts take a fraction of a second, the other script typically runs for > 10 seconds before completing.

    TESTS AND OBSERVATIONS

    1) This takes excessive time to run (typically 13 seconds on my test machine):

       C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop>"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2019\sampleclient.exe" -host localhost:8190 c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\adobe-ids-win-slow.js
       Script result (std__string): Done
    

    2) This completes quickly (typically in less than 0.1 seconds):

       C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop>"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2019\sampleclient.exe" -host localhost:8190 c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\adobe-ids-win-fast.js
       Script result (std__string): Done
    

    3) Adding the "-server" flag to the slow test will make it run fast, since the script isn't passed via SOAP but instead evaluated directly from local disk. This tells me the parsing of the ExtendScript statements isn't slow in itself so the difference seems to lie in the SOAP request handling.

    4) Now a really weird part: removing the very first space (before the comment on line 1) in "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" makes it run almost as fast as the fast script when repeating test 1) above. It turns out that "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" MUST start with a /* */-style comment in the very first byte to run fast; adding the space back, or removing the comment completely, makes it evaluate slowly again. I've tried other tokens such as semicolon, //-style comment, curly brackets etc but none had the same effect.

    5) In contrast to the change in 4), adding spaces before the comment, or removing the comment entirely, from "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" makes no difference in its evaluation performance.

    6) Another strange discrepancy is that even when "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" is modified to run fast using the change described in 4) above, the speed is still slower than the "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" variant. They both declare a string of same length but the data INSIDE the string is different, but while "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" completes in < 0.1 seconds the modified "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" takes closer to a full second.

    7) All of the tests above run at good speed (less than a second) when connecting to IDS 14.0.2.324 on macOS (tested with Catalina 10.15.7). The minor difference in speed between the slow and fast scripts seen in 6) is still present though, but is again eliminated if the "-server" option is used.

    OTHER COMMENTS

    I tried running Microsoft's Windows Performance Analyzer to capture what the slow IDS is doing during the long wait. I found that the overhead is located in calls from AFL (Adobe File Library) to the NT kernel, but without debug symbols I couldn't pinpoint it in more detail. My totally unconfirmed suspicion is that gSOAP/2.7 (as returned in the "Server" HTTP header in IDS connections) is applying some content sniffing to detect encoding, data format or other properties of the inlined script, but why this would only take place on Windows is a mystery, and it's also odd that the initial code comment would short-circuit this and improve performance dramatically.

    I've also tried disabling various Windows Security settings (Firewall, Virus & Threat Protection, Exploit Protection etc) in case that was interfering with network I/O but I've not found any improvement in that area.

    The slowness is not inherent in "sampleclient.exe" either since the root problem was first observed using our own HTTP client, as was the weird workaround of adding the comment string. I'm just using "sampleclient.exe" here to set up a self-contained test case.

    SETUP

    • IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)

    • Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"

    • Two test scripts (attached):

13. Share for Review, Review links in

    The Review feature is incredibly buggy. When I open up my .indd to edit from the clients edits, I have the REVIEW window open on the right as I edit on the left. 1. the minute I delete within the highlighted area, the comment/edit immediately zooms away. This is so frustrating. Spelling errors cannot be corrected if the yellow highlight is on...you have to choose a letter replacement from a dropdown. So bizarre. And this is the MOST irritating...Why can't I just see a list of Unresolved comments with NOTHING ELSE? The screen is constantly over-populated with vintage comments that were resolved days ago. Filters do not work. If I click filter by RESOLVED for a moment just the un-resolved ones will float to the top. But it doesn't stick. I have to scroll around to figure out where I was on the list of edits and there' no reason to it. The workflow is incredibly frustrating.

    The Review feature is incredibly buggy. When I open up my .indd to edit from the clients edits, I have the REVIEW window open on the right as I edit on the left. 1. the minute I delete within the highlighted area, the comment/edit immediately zooms away.

14. export, printing

    I am unable to export or print a document through InDesign 2023. I have no errors in the document, but whenever I try to export the document (which is 113 pages long and has quite a number of images throughout), it just says "Failed to Export PDF File", but gives no reason for why this happened. I do get a pop-up window before the one that says the document failed to export and the pop-up says that some links for either files or hyperlinks are not accessible. I have removed all hyperlinks and all the images are linked properly. Also, when I try to print the document, it says "Printing Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem."
    What other issues are occurring that is preventing the files from being exported as a PDF?

16. InDesign 14.1

    Opening InDesign just by itself makes it freeze completely. Ball of death (on Mac) .
    It asks me if I want to start automatic recovery however I can't click on any of the options because the ball of death doesn't let me. The window with the recovery message consequently shows up on top of any other screen.

    I could make InDesign work ONCE yesterday after restarting and today it completely crashes again. Unfortunately it also means one of my files is now stuck 'open' which is untimely.
    This is the latest verstion both of InDesign as well as Mac OS.

    Aaand while at it my Adobe Creative Cloud is being an absolute nightmare logging me out a lot and when I enter my log in details and confirm it thinks about it and says - you have been logged out. Takes me several attempts to make it work.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers!

17. European characters recognized as Kanjis in composite fonts

    I'm editing a Chinese document containing certain European characters such as ē and í.
    I've created a composite font that uses Roboto for numbers and latin alphabets, and Noto Sans CJK for the Chinese characters.

    Recently I noticed some of the European characters are incorrectly recognized as Kanjis, and are set to Noto Sans CJK instead of Roboto.

    By testing my composite font settings, I confirmed that these misbehaving characters are being recognized as Kanjis (the top row in the composite font window).

    1. InDesign version: 17.3
    2. Create a composite font as shown in Screen Shot 1
    3. I expect all European characters to also be recognized as Latin alphabets
    4. Some of the European characters are recognized as Kanjis, as can be seen in Screen Shot 2. The difference is subtle, to compare, I placed two ē side by side, and manually set the left one to Roboto and the right one to the composite font, see Screen Shot 3.

18. Right-to-left paragraph orientation causes problems

    Hello and thanks in advance to the respondents.
    For several months now I have been suffering from a very annoying problem in InDesign and I have not been able to find a solution.
    When I set the writing direction from right to left (using the edit menu - right to left), the arrow keys on the right and left keyboard stop responding as they should, and instead of each click the cursor moves one character to the right or left, clicking on them jumps the cursor to the beginning or end of the line.
    The problem only exists when I select the "Visual" option in the above menu.
    Of course, in my Adobe Creative settings, English is set to support Hebrew, and I also noticed that I am opening a text window of the Middle East type, and in the paragraph settings itself, the direction is set from right to left.
    Thank you very much for any help!

19. ID can't import multiple PDF (with multiple pages) into frames placed in master

    InDesign 14.0.2 french
    Windows 10 x64 Pro 1903 - 18362.239

    I need to import 148 PDF with 5 pages into each files.
    I prepare 5 frames into the A-master.
    CTRL+D from the 1st page to select my files.
    For the demo, I use 3 files.

    Only the second PDF is imported.
    All other PDF are visible in Links panel, but with no pages imported.

    If I do an the same import without frames on the A-master, I am able to place 5 pages per ID page. But it's longer, without the same scale, etc.

    Please check my video attached.
    I attach my 3 PDF of the demo.

    I've just test under 13.1.1: the bug is already there :-(
    Thanks to my users not to tell me...

    I also tried to do the same by duplicating my page with no frames on A-master but on the page itself: same result, only the second PDF is imported.

    If I choose 2 pages on each PDF, I got 2 PDF on 3. Better, but not enough (frames on page or A-master).

    Last test: import without advance options, so only 1st page is imported.
    It worked: I got the 3 first pages imported...

    Please help :)

20. M1

    I have issues with basic tasks in InDesign. I ordered a new MacBook Pro 16, M11 Pro, 16GB Ram, 1TB SSD
    And just scrolling around in InDesign gave me the rolling spin.

    After updating to the newest indd Version and newest MacOs Version it did get better with small files, and moving a textbox worked finally.
    But working with a bigger magazine file with 50 pages is not doable.

    I ordered a second m1 pro (same config) as thinking it might be a Hardware Issue. Same result.
    I made a clean wipe of MacOs, only installed CC and Indd (and OneDrive for the files) and still same issue.

    Turning GPU OFF or ON did not change a thing.

    My old intel Windows with 6700HQ and 20GB Ram is working better in the same file.

    Btw. Photoshop worked perfectly fine and is waaay faster as the Win Laptop, as it is supposed to be.
