1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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?

5. reorder print presets

   Add ability to reorder print presets, either by drag and drop or alpha or latest.

6. InDesign 2025 (v20.3.1) freezes when interacting with modal dialog panels on macOS 15.5 (Sequoia)

   Hi Adobe team,

   I’m experiencing repeated, non-reproducible hangs in InDesign 2025 (v20.3.1) when interacting with certain modal dialog panels — such as Panel Options, Color Panel settings, and similar. This occurs on macOS 15.5 (Sequoia). After clicking inside one of these dialogs, InDesign sporadically becomes unresponsive (beachball), requiring a force quit via “Force Quit Applications.”

   The issue existed before a complete clean install of macOS and continues to occur even after the fresh system setup with no migration or prior settings carried over.

   Here are the key system details:
   • macOS version: 15.5 (24F74) – Developer Beta (Sequoia)
   • Mac model: MacBook Pro 16” M1 Max, 64 GB RAM
   • Displays: Dual Apple Studio Displays
   • InDesign version: 20.3.1 (latest Creative Cloud release as of June 2025)
   • No plugins installed
   • Font manager: RightFont (fonts synced via Dropbox folder, no Adobe plugin)
   • User environment: Freshly created custom workspaces
   • Documents: Problem occurs even with new, blank files
   • macOS was clean-installed from scratch before testing

   The hangs are unpredictable and extremely disruptive — multiple times a day — making productive work almost impossible. It’s incredibly frustrating to deal with such instability in basic UI operations like opening panel dialogs.

   Attached is a .hang report from macOS, which shows the InDesign main thread stalling in:
   UI::ModalDialogManager::RunModalLoop()
   BscModalDialog::DoModal()
   ControlPanel::ShowOptionsDialog()

   Other threads remain idle, indicating a UI-level deadlock — likely caused by a modal dialog waiting on OS-level window interaction that never completes.

   This seems related to changes in macOS 15’s window or dialog behavior, potentially affecting how InDesign renders or processes modal components.

   I understand Sequoia is still in beta, but since the issue exists in InDesign’s current public release (20.3.1) and is severe enough to disrupt daily work, I wanted to report it early.

   Please let me know if you’d like additional crash/hang logs or screen recordings — happy to assist further.

   Thanks,
   Marc

   PS: This technical explanation and hang report interpretation were created with the help of ChatGPT, since I’m not a developer myself — just a professional user trying to get work done with InDesign.

7. 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.

8. No Font Spacing Between Words in InDesign 2019 14.0.x-2 on Mojave 10.14.x-4, Works fine in InDesign 2014 (v10.0.70) on Yosemite (10.10.5)

   Posted it here too: https://forums.adobe.com/message/11049072#11049072

   So, we've had this issue on our new MacBook Pro running macOS Mojave v10.14.4 ever since last year in August when we were on High Sierra (what came with the Mac).

   Basically, InDesign is unusable with Gujarati Sangam MN on the 2019 version but on 2014 (v10.0.0.70) version on my old Mac (OS X Yosemite, v10.10.5) it works fine.

   What's causing this issue?

   We've tried the following:

   • Contacted Adobe & Apple support: Apple said to contact Adobe, Adobe was unhelpful, they suggested we look up if the font was installed it it is on the new Mac using Font book.

   • Updated Adobe InDesign 2019 to 14.0.2.

   • Arial seems to work, so maybe it's something to do with this font on new Macs or InDesign 2019?

   • Unrelated (because CC was showing trial expired from dropdown but a new account let us test the new update for 7 days, still same issue): https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/limited_access_repair_tool.html#

   Also noticed some images aren't rendering properly coming from Adobe InDesign 2014 to 2019.

   We simply cannot buy InDesign 2019/CC if this issue hasn't been fixed or can't be fixed.

   PS: Is there a way to move all the font options back to the top of the window like in InDesign 2014, rather than on the right?

   Pics included:

   Mac Mojave 10.14.4 with Adobe InDesign 2019:

   Screen Shot 2019-04-27 at 22.49.09.png

   No text spacing between words on Gujarati Sangam MN font, Adobe 2019 on Mojave 10.14.4.

   Screen Shot 2019-04-27 at 22.49.23.png

   Adobe InDesign 2014 on old Mac Yosemite 10.10.5, renders fine (I made the file in this version and have been working with it ever since):

   Screen Shot 2019-04-27 at 22.33.54.png

   As you can see the spacing between words is perfectly fine, very annoying how Adobe InDesign 2019 isn't accomodating for this out of the box.

   Screen Shot 2019-04-27 at 23.31.48.png

   Any how, I'm thinking of just choosing a template from Adobe Stock templates to redesign this resume, since it's proving so problematic and is due to a refresh. This current resume I designed from scratch in Adobe 2014, but it doesn't seem that portable to 2019 version.

   Thank you again, hope this can be solved or otherwise serve others too.

   Regards,

   Siteroo Team

9. Numbered list gets corrupted when saved and opened as idml

   Version: Indesign CC 13.0 x64 Windows (and Indesign CC 2017)

   1. Create 2 paragraphstyles
   2. For ParagraphStyle 1 set bullets and numbering To List Type 'Numbers' and name it 'Multiple Choice' (or something else) and Level 1
   3. For ParagraphStyle 2 base it on ParagraphStyle 1 and change the text color
   4. Create some paragraphs with different combinations of these styles.
   5. Save as idml
   6. Open the idml
   7. Look at the paragraphs of the second paragraphstyle, you will notice that paragraphStyle 2 has a numbering of his own and no longer the mix with paragraphstyle 1.

   Expected result: Same as before the save to idml. A list with a. b. c. d. e.
   Actual result: list looks wrong like a. a. b. b. c.

   It only happens when the second paragraphstyle is based on the first style. But working with styles that are not based on eachother is going back in time.

   Attached you will find the correct indd that you can save as idml and see the result.
   Also I added 2 screenshots, 1 correct, 1 wrong after idml.

   Thank you for reporting the issue. It is under review now.

10. 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!

    We recommend you to upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2020.0.1 (if you’re not already on it). It contains a lot of stability fixes.

    If you still face this issue even after updating to the latest version of InDesign, please submit the crash report to us. (The guidelines to submit crash are available at (https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/submit-crash-reports.html)

11. Some glyphs in ai files appear as other glyphs in PDFs (created from InDesign)

    DE: Einige Glyphen in ai-Dateien kommen in (aus InDesign erzeugten) PDFs als andere Glyphen an.

    InDesign 19.5.1.114 | Windows 11

    The ohm sign Ω - U+02126 is placed several times in an InDesign document:
    2x in an Illustrator graphic
    1x in another Illustrator graphic created additionally for test purposes
    1x placed directly in InDesign

    If a PDF is created from the InDesign document, only the Ohm characters present in both Illustrator graphics are written to the PDF as different Unicode characters - and also as different other Unicode characters: U+0001F and U+00016.
    (See AI-Glyph-Test.pdf)

    The problem was noticed by checking the PDF with 'PDF Accessibility Checker' from axes4: The error ‘Text object with characters without Unicode mapping’ is reported for the Ohm characters in the Illustrator graphics.
    (See PAC-Report_AI-Glyph-Test.png)

    The PAC error is not reported for the Ohm character set directly in the InDesign document. But: the glyph Ω - U+02126 set in the InDesign document was replaced by the glyph Ω - U+003A9 during PDF export.

13. Output to PDF removes bleed

    Summary: Output to PDF removed bleed

    Details:

    I laid out a book in Indesign using the 'Book' feature, with several similar sections or documents linked as a 'Book'. Each document based on the same original so all had same settings.

    I needed to output to PDF for the printer, Mixam UK. I downloaded the printer's settings, which include: output to single pages, bleed with no marks, with 'use document bleed' checked.

    I had set up the documents in Indesign in spreads with 3mm bleed as usual from the start. When looking at the output settings BEFORE output, I could see it still said 'use document settings' and showed 3mm bleed all round. See attached screenshot.

    I then output the book (Export Book to PDF) to single page PDF and uploaded to printer's website.

    I did not notice the document in fact had ZERO BLEED. The printer alerted me. I went back and output again. This time I looked more carefully and saw that 'use document bleed' was still ticked (checked), but it had reset to 0mm. I think it does it at the point of exporting the whole 'Book'.

    Workaround: I unticked 'use document bleed' and changed the bleed manually in that box to 3mm. Problem solved. 

    I see that a similar issue has been noted by Adobe but one suggested workaround is to export as single pages, link below. But I was using single pages so that is NOT the solution. Something is going wrong with 'use document settings', perhaps because it was a Book and not a single doc. (I did check each Indesign document is set up with 3mm bleed - yes they are.)

    https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/bleed-settings-incorrect-export-pdf.html?x-product

    I'm working on a Mac running OS 12.6 and Adobe Indesign 2023 on subscription.

    Anyway hope you can work on this and provide a fix or announcement so that other people don't send off their work without bleed.

    Of course the fact the printer demands a bleed without marks is making it harder for me as customer to check I've got bleed in my PDF! That bit is not your problem!

    Side note: this window for reporting bugs is too small! It's hard to see what I've already said or edit it.

    Thank you.

14. unknown character

    1. Adobe InDesign 2021

    2.3.4.

    Hello,

    For several months now, when I place a .docx document in inDesign, it can happen that a character is misinterpreted by inDesign.
    It's as if it's invisible for the layout, but it actually cuts the word in half for spelling correction, for example.
    When I copy it to search for it with inDesign with or without GREP, it does paste something (a lowercase L or an uppercase i preceded by a ^ in normal or ~ in GREP) but it doesn't find it.
    When displaying hidden characters it appears as two vertical red dots (see my photo).
    Sometimes it also appears at the very beginning of a sentence.

    French :
    caractère inconnu

    Bonjour,

    Depuis plusieurs mois, lorsque je place un document .docx dans inDesign, il peut arriver qu’un caractère soit comme mal interprété par inDesign.
    Il est comme invisible pour la mise en page, mais il coupe en fait le mot en deux pour la correction orthographique par exemple.
    Lorsque je le copie pour le rechercher avec inDesign avec ou sans GREP, il colle bien quelque chose (un L minuscule ou un i majuscule précédé d’un ^ en normal ou ~ en GREP) mais il ne le trouve pas.
    En affichant les caractères masqués il apparait comme deux points rouges verticaux (voir ma photo).
    Parfois il apparait aussi en tout début de phrase.

15. 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 :)

16. Problem mit Schlagschatten unter 15.0 x64 (Windows)

    Wenn einem Objekt ein Schlagschatten zugewiesen wird, so verschiebt sich der Schatten, sobald man auf OK klickt. Das heißt, der Schlagschatten hat dem optischen Eindruck nach andere Werte, als die zugewiesenen.
    Beispiel: Ein einzelnes PSD mit mehreren freigestellten Objekten vor transparentem Hintergrund erhält folgende Werte:
    Deckkraft 100% / Abstand 3 mm / x-Versatz 0 / y-Versatz 3 mm / Winkel 90° / Größe 5 mm / Übergriff 50% / Rauschen 0
    Als Ergebnis zeigen einige Objekte einen 90" nach untern fallenden Schatten. Bei den restlichen Objekten ist der Schatten nach unten und links verschoben.
    Dieses Problem ist neu, es ist bisher nicht aufgetreten.

18. Windows 10 PC. VBA for Excel and the InDesign CC2017 library are not functioning.

    I have a serious problem. I have a new Acer PC Windows 10. I am using Office 365 Excel VBA to control InDesign CC2017. The InDesign CC2107 Type Library is not functioning with the VBA. I have been using this setup since CS3 to automate InDesign actions and provide solutions for automating print production.

    I am trying to start a $4000 project using these same InDesign capabilities but am unable to get anywhere. I am most disappointed and upset at this occurrance and am seeking some assistance from Adobe. Attached is the software code that I am trying to implement. Also attached is a large source code file that worked well and demonstrates what can be accomplished with your products. This is a serious concern for me. This is how I make my living. My email is pwren44@aol.com. Please help!

19. Adobe Indesign server doesn't indicate license issues

    An Indesign Server setup was no longer running properly. The soap client could no longer connect to the instances.

    However, the Windows Indesign server service was running. There were no errors in the Windows event viewer. Rebooting the service and server had no effect.

    Upon manual startup, errors were displayed stating that the license could not be verified. After opening Internet access, everything worked fine again.

    THIS SHOULD BE FIXED:
    - The Windows event viewer should show license errors
    - The Indesign server service should not be running if there are license issues. It should shutdown again. Why is the service still running if it doesn't work?
