PDF fails to export InDesign 14.0.1 - Still an issue
So many bugs in InDesign!!!
1) Export to PDF (any settings) works once after starting InDesign. Then fails on any attempt to re-export. Which ever preset I use - error. Nothing special about the file - nothing!
2) Also, and I know it's not about PDF, Keyboard shortcut to start a New Document does not work on startup. I have to click on file menu and open the sub menu item New – then the shortcut works :| No error – nothing! It just does not respond to shortcuts.
BTW: Posting this by clicking "Post idea" does not mean that…

Copying a page: Wrong position
When making a copy of a page, for example a copy of page 1, the new copy lands on a wrong position in the page palette.
1. Click and drag page 1 in the page palette while holding the alt-key. Then move mouse to the right, until a line appears between pages 1 and 2.
2. Releasing the mouse button should result in a copy of page 1 between the original page 1 and 2. All subsequent page numbers should increase by 1.
3. Instead of landing on position 2, the copied page appears on position 3.This issue has…

Urdu fonts not working in InDesign 2021
Tried various Urdu fonts in InDesign and only one seemed to work fine (Jameel Noori Nastaleeq). On others attempted, the glyphs were all over the place and it looked like some baseline shift might be required on some characters. In others something called 'missing glyph protection' kicked in and all the characters looked like they were piled on top of each other.
The same fonts worked fine in MS Word (365) so I prepared two PDF files showing the same text in 5 different URDU fonts - one prepared from Word and the other from InDesign to illustrate the difference.

InDesign Documentation
I found out through Adobe support that page transitions in an interactive PDF created using InDesign only work in full screen mode. If this is true, your documentation should state this.
I also found out that the SWF function has been removed for InDesign 2020. Please update your documentation to let users know that this is no longer available in 2020, but is still available in 2019.

InDesign Review Feature
My coworker and I are both suddenly facing major problems with the review functionality with Adobe InDesign 16.1 (Windows). This has only been occurring for about 10 days. When the review function actually works instead of an error or just loading nonstop (only works 30% of the time now), the links often don't work in the end for other viewers to review and show up as an error. Now, when this works, the comments from the review link are not showing up where they were placed, and when we go in to implement them manually in InDesign from the weblink,…

Tabbing through values doesn't work on certain panels
When you press tab on, say the colour palette to input values in CMYK, the tab button instead of highlighting the next field ready for your input instead often places the cursor after the value you wish to amend which is frustrating and slows my workflow down. It's done this for years to be fair.

Arrange object after unhide
Using Adobe InDesign 15.0.1 x64 (CC 2020), after I unhid several linked image objects, I was unable to arrange those elements forward or backward to make it visible on top of other elements. The objects were not locked as I checked several times and even copying / pasting them would not allow me to rearrange them. Restarting solved the problem after I spent 20 minutes fighting with it.

Placed/Imported Photos glitching, changing colors, white noise effect
File> Placed Photos glitching, changing colors, white noise effect, or turn black. Tried dragging and dropping onto artboard but pictures keep importing distorted. Reset all presets and preferences. Uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. Photos should import as is instead of glitching and most of all changing colors. This started happening after I updated InDesign beginning of this month (November 2021).

Indesign CC 2018 crashes while selecting the type tool or font option from type menu
I am running Adobe InDesign CC 2018 13.0 x64. Whenever I open a new document and select the type tool, InDesign crashes. Same thing happens while clicking font option from type menu. Also, any premade INDD/INDT files aren't opening, it crashes every time. I have reinstalled several times, trashed preferences but of no use. I am running a Windows 10 version 1909 64 bit with OS built 18363.1801.

Disappearing caption text
When adding text to an existing caption in Adobe InDesign 2023, the entire caption disappears. To solve, I can widen the caption box, which our client's formatting specs do not allow, or adjust the text frame options to ignore text wrap, which distorts the horizontal scale of the text. How can I add text to captions without having to change my caption text box's layout?

Library panel not registering licensed images
Hi, for a while now the Library panel does not register when I license an image from Adobe Stock. I search for an image and place a watermarked thumbnail into the document (InDesign, Illustrator or Photoshop). When the draft is approved I click on the license image icon on the image in the Library (or on the thumbnail image in the document) and the license process happens but the library does to update to show the licensed image. I have to go to Adobe stock in a web browser, find the specific library and download the image manually. The cloud…

'manage extensions' not in 'help' dropdown
The extensions option is not showing in the "help" menu. When I go to the Help Menu there is no "Manage Extensions" option.

profil
Bonjour, Le souci est que sur BR mes fichiers Indd et les exports pour impression en PDF ne contiennent aucune mention de "Profil Colorimétrique", alors que mes logiciels Adobe ont bien la même gestion de couleur à savoir : PREPRESSE EUROPE > COATED FOGRA39
J'ai beau Attribuer ou Convertir en profil cela ne fonctionne pas !
Sinon, pouvez-vous me donner la manipulation à faire ?
Merci
Cela est très ennuyeux pour les imprimeurs.1 vote -
HSB Swatch Displays incorrectly with Color Settings OFF
On Mac, when using the setting "Emulate Adobe InDesign 2.0 CMS OFF" in Color Settings, HSB color swatches display incorrectly on the page. For example, a light pastel would display as royal blue. When using "North American Prepress 2" or "North American General Purpose 2" settings, the color is displayed correctly.
Also, the automatic names InDesign provides when using "Add Unnamed Colors" in the Swatches panel show incorrect values. See attached.
1 voteThe fix for this issue is available in the latest InDesign release 16.2.1
Please update to this latest version to get the fix.

resize object works rarely
It's already 2019. I've been reading comments from 2015 about this same issue. I downloaded the most current version of InDesign and unbelievably I still cannot resize an object on my MacbookPro by clicking on the shift button. It works occasionally (for some odd reason). This is totally ridiculous. I read dozens of complaints about this from 2015 and on. Seriously, Adobe? You cannot fix this issue once and for all.

Slow creation of PDF low-res
In addition to the problem I posted regarding a conflict between ID and Windows 11, I did resolve that by moving to an earlier release of ID. However, the creation of the low-res PDF now consumed the time it normally takes to produce a high-res print-ready export. Something is going on with ID 17.1.
