1. Unable to Rename Items Within a Layer

   Using Adobe InDesign Version 16.2.1

   I used to be able to click on the name of an item within a layer to be able to rename it. I am no longer able to do this. If I click the layer, it flashes once to allow me to change them name but immediately goes back to being normal. It will not allow me to change the name anymore. I never had trouble with this before.

   I am able to change the name of the actual layer by double clicking it and renaming it in the "Layer Options" pop-up box but there is no option available for the items within the layer.

   I have uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign three times now with no change.
   Of course this is not a major issue, but I do like to be able to rename the items in my layers to keep everything organised for specific files.

3. the first letter of the heading does not appear in the result.

   Adobe Indesign (19.0 : 20.0) 2024-2025 / Mac os Sequoia 15.0.1
   When using a Text Variable (Running Header ‹Paragraph Style›) and applying it to fully diacritized Arabic text, the first letter of the heading does not appear in the result. This issue arises when exporting to PDF.
   open indesign and Type the fully diacritized Arabic text, Assign paragraph sytle, go to Text variable - Define - New - Running Header «Paragraph Style» - Assign.
   The text is expected to display correctly without errors; however, contrary to this, the first letter of the fully diacritized text does not appear. This issue arises when exporting to PDF.
   The test files and illustrative screenshots of the issue are attached.

4. Ghost hyperlinks can't be fixed

   With placed Word text, I often have 'ghost hyperlinks', meaning I need there's no active hyperlink in the text but I'm not allowed to select that text and add a hyperlink – 'New hyperlink' is greyed out.

   Double-clicking the paragraph inspires this message: "all corrupt hyperlinks in the selected text have been removed," but I'm still unable to add a hyperlink. The only fix I've found is to cut the text, paste it in another app, copy and re-paste it into ID as fresh 'uncorrupted' text.

   Cutting all relevant paragraphs makes ID crash.

   Of course this is a real hassle, so Adobe, please fix this issue.

5. InDesign 16.0.2 still does not allow making new folder under SaveAs dialog and Cmd+P also does not work

   Updated version of InDesign (16.0. and 16.0.2) does not allow making new folder when using Save As or Open dialog on MacOS Mojave. Also you can not use Cmd+P shortcut in the same dialog - this is very helpful shortcut that opens current folder in Finder. Adobe WHY are you bringing new bugs all the time for things that worked just great :(

6. InDesign incorrect font.version when SUBSTITUED

   In an InDesign document when a font.status is SUBSTITUED, both the xmpTPg:Fonts/Resource/stFnt:versionString and also font.version property show the value of the font which is used by InDesign for the substitute font, and not the original (now missing) font version.

   As anyone who has worked with font purchasing knows, the font version is extremely important. Both because of licensing reasons (previously purchased font licenses for font versions may need to be repurchased with newer versions), and also because even in a font produced by the same foundry or designer, a minor version change can include optical differences, spacing differences causing text reflow, overset text and glyph errors.

   Here's an example

   1) Open the attached document into Adobe InDesign
   2) In the top dropdown menu, go to Type > Find/Replace Fonts
   3) In the Find/Replace Fonts listing there is only one font and it is missing/substituted, SharpGroteskBook22
   4) In the Find/Replace Fonts listing for the font in the “More Info” area the version is correctly shown as “Version 1.003”
   5) However, when showing the properties of this font in Visual Studio Code Adobe Extendscript debugger the font.version for this font is incorrectly shown as: "version: 17.0d1e1" (see screenshot)
   6) Also when viewing the metadata for the document in the File > File Info > Raw fonts xmpTPg:Fonts object, the versionString is incorrectly shown as “SharpGroteskBook2217.0d1e1” (see screenshot)

   I am considering this behavior to be a bug.

   In my opinion there is no value which is gained from InDesign having the font.version of a totally different font which is only being used to substitute a font which is not found.

   Why does the font.version property not continue to return the value of the font when it was INSTALLED?

   The data is not entirely missing. There is a location in InDesign which contains the accurate font version for a font which is font.status = SUBSTITUTED, and that is in the InDesign UI Fonts > Find/Replace Fonts menu, More Info area. I need a way to be able to retrieve that accurate data via scripting.

   InDesign and InDesign Server versions 2023, 2022, 2020 etc.

7. Custom .joboptions presets break all PDF exports in InDesign 20 (macOS 15.6.1)

   ⚠️ Critical Bug: Custom .joboptions presets instantly disable all PDF export in InDesign 20 on macOS 15 — exports appear to finish but no PDF is produced. Removing the preset restores functionality. Confirmed reproducible across multiple systems.

   InDesign 20.0 on macOS 15.6.1 silently fails to export PDFs after a custom PDF preset (.joboptions) is created or added. The export appears to complete, but no file is generated and no error message appears. Removing the custom .joboptions file immediately restores export functionality.

   This occurs even when the preset is a clean derivative of “Press Quality” or “High Quality Print,” suggesting a parsing or sandbox issue with the Adobe PDF Library in InDesign 20/macOS 15.

   Steps to Reproduce:
   Open InDesign 20.0.
   Export a document to PDF successfully using High Quality Print.
   Go to File → Adobe PDF Presets → Define → New and create a custom preset (any name).
   Export again.

   Result:
   Export appears to succeed but no PDF is produced.
   No error dialog or warning appears.

   Additional Notes:
   Reproducible on multiple Macs (Intel and Apple Silicon).
   Default .joboptions files work normally.
   Custom .joboptions files immediately break exports, including valid PostScript syntax.
   Suggests regression in sandbox access or preset parsing introduced in InDesign 20/macOS 15.

   If you’re seeing this issue, please click “Vote” and comment “Same here” so Adobe can prioritize the fix.

8. Preferences: Type: Use of Typographer’s Quote reset to off

   1. Adobe InDesign 14.0.3
   2. Create or open a document with Use of Typographer’s Quote checkbox ticked. Copy/Paste text from a document (Word, TextEdit) into the InDesign document. Note that the resetting of the Preferences doesn't happen all the time, only sometimes and I haven't been able to narrow it down to a certain context.
   3. The pasted text should use Typographer’s Quote according to the Preferences.
   4. The quotes from that pasted text use straight quotes instead, and when opening the Preferences, the checkbox is now unticked.

   Note: I've encountered this bug in previous versions of InDesign from CS5 up to the current version I'm using (14.x).

12. Pop ups fail

    Hi, I have Id cc 13.0.1 by Adobe Creative Cloud. When I double clic on an indd file all pop up menus from differents windows don't work, I can choose (e.g. vertical alignment from framework option or multiply from effects) but the original option remains. If I open the app first and the file later it works perfectly.
    Hope this helps. Bye!

14. Packaging without fonts folder

    I use Adobe InDesign 17.0.1 versionin Windows. I had to reinstall the program because of my device is new. My problem is during packaging. I use my own font (not an Adobe font) and I have permission to use it. The font family has installed on my device, but the fonts folder is still missing from the final folder after packaging. 'Copy font' is selected during packaging.

    Click "convert" to open this document..... doesn't do anything!!

    The error message then tells you "You are not currently signed in to the
    CC (which I already am). Please go to Help- > Sign In and enter your Adobe ID. Restart InDesign, then try opening the document again."

    Performing this action does nothing, the error never goes away, you just go in circles.

17. endnote

    There appears to be a bug in the endnote linking when exported to PDF from InDesign. I'm running InDesign 13.0.1 x64 (Windows).

    When I export an InDesign document as a PDF, endnote linking (from the reference to the text and v.v.) is incorrect.

    Please see https://forums.adobe.com/message/10048963 for the full discussion. In short:

    Create a document with multiple sections (e.g. 1st section with 9 pages, 2nd section with 125 pages). Endnotes in second section will link nine pages too early (e.g., if you have an endnote on page 122, clicking on the endnote in the PDF will link to page 113.

18. InDesign '23 interface is not dual-monitor friendly! I am running macOS Monterey 12.4 on a MacBook M1 Pro.

    Please update Adobe InDesign to be a more self-contained, movable workspace instead of anchoring the app to a single monitor (namely, my small laptop monitor). I am able to move tool windows and a file window over to my larger screen, but everything opens back on my laptop screen and I have to adjust all over again, unlike with Illustrator or Photoshop. It also maintains a dark gray 'background' over my laptop screen so it's VERY difficult to multitask. I noticed that this became an issue with a recent update PRIOR to the release of InDesign 2023. I am running macOS Monterey 12.4 on a MacBook M1 Pro. Thank you! :)

It also maintains a dark gray 'background' over my laptop screen so it's VERY difficult to multitask. I noticed that this became an issue with a recent update PRIOR to the release of InDesign 2023. I am running… more

19. performance issues

    I've never been complaining about InDesign, but the last updated version sucks hard. I have issues with my tablet, the smart guides are not measuring right, I got issues with type tool imagining object that doesn't exist. There issues with the other apps as well, the last year with Adobe CC has been really driving me crazy, the quality of performance it's just getting worse!

20. Printing to PDF: transparent images on a black background create two different blacks.

    Export function doesn't tend to create this problem, but I have to use the Print Booklet function to get page layout and everything else correct.

    I understand the difference between Rich Black and Accurate Black, but changing the settings for what InDesign will export seems to have no effect. have tried about 6 different solutions but none of them seem to work, short of me jumping through obscene hoops to cheat it. FIX YOUR CRAP ADOBE.

    Attaching two images:
    First is Screencap from InDesign viewport.
    Second is PDF after print.

    UPDATE: The website doesn't allow me to upload jpegs, so Adobe if you're reading this, I hate you. That is actually the final straw. Took the time out of my day to file a complaint that I know won't ever be solved, and I can't handle any more hurdles. I'm not purchasing my suite again after this payment cycle ends. Best.
