   I can make packeges from my MAC or from external hard drives. The network is working correctly. On High Sierrea everything worked properly.

   Hello All,

   We have concluded our investigation into the issue and found that the issue is specific to few versions of MacOS 10.14.×.
   As a part of our investigation we had reached out to many of you, where many of you have confirmed that the issue gets resolved after upgrading to MacOS 10.14.5.

   Note:
   If you are NOT using MacOS 10.14.5 and still facing this issue, please upgrade your MacOs to 10.14.5 version.
   In case you continue to face the same issue after the upgrade, you may reach out to us at sharewithid@adobe.com.

   For any other problem related to packaging workflows please create a new thread.

   We are closing this thread for now.

   Thank you for your patience all this while.

2. [ID-4257731]No Redraws on Object Highlight

   Prerequisites

   • macOS version only
   • version 18 (2023) and later
   • Screen Mode: Normal
   • GPU Performance OFF (CPU Preview)

   This issue occurs 100% of the time under these conditions. Note that Overprint Preview forces CPU Preview, causing the issue even in Overprint Preview mode with GPU Performance ON. It persists across macOS versions and Intel/Apple Silicon platforms.

   Steps to Reproduce

   1. Prepare an InDesign document with multiple pages.
   2. Place any object on the page.
   3. Switch to the Text tool.
   4. Hover the mouse over the object (MouseEnter), without selecting it.
   5. Press the Cmd key while the mouse is over the object.
   6. The object is highlighted.
   7. Select the menu item "Layout > Next Page."

   The document should navigate to the next page, but it doesn't. Although the scrollbar or page panel indicates navigation, the display remains frozen without redrawing.

   Furthermore, even when the mouse is moved away from the object (MouseExit), the object remains highlighted and can be challenging to unhighlight.

   This feature, highlighting objects using "Text tool + Cmd key + MouseEnter," has been present in InDesign since its early versions. However, this issue surfaced in version 18 (2023) specifically when using CPU Preview, despite no problems in version 17 (2022).

   ---

   There are similar issues with other functions.

   Steps to Reproduce

   In addition to the prerequisites mentioned above, turn on "Highlight Object Under Selection Tool" in "Preferences > Interface." Then, highlight an object with the Selection Tool and press the keyboard shortcut for "Layout > Next Page" (shift+page down).

   The document should move to the next page, but it does not. Similarity to the above bug.

   "Highlight Object Under Selection Tool" is a feature introduced in CS5.5. Turning this off can prevent the issue from occurring.

   However, even when this is turned off, the object highlight with "Text Tool + Cmd Key + MouseEnter" does not turn off. It might be a completely separate function. To avoid confusion, I explained these two separately.

   Prerequisites

   • macOS version only
   • version 18 (2023) and later
   • Screen Mode: Normal
   • GPU Performance OFF (CPU Preview)

   This issue occurs 100% of the time under these conditions. Note that Overprint Preview forces CPU Preview, causing the issue even in Overprint Preview mode with GPU Performance ON. It persists across macOS versions and Intel/Apple Silicon platforms.

   Steps to Reproduce

   1. Prepare an InDesign document with multiple pages.
   2. Place any object on the page.
   3. Switch to the Text tool.
   4. Hover the mouse over the object (MouseEnter), without selecting it.
   5. Press the Cmd key while the mouse is over the object.
   6. The object is… more

3. Export to PDF function crash in InDesign 15.1

   Today I have updated to InDesign 15.1 and when I try to export to PDF the application immediately crash.

   This happen even I change the type of export (small dimension, print, etc.).

   I'm using windows 10 pro ver. 1909 build 18363.836, and Indesign 15.1 x64.

   The system start to work but the application crash at 16% of the export.

   The problem seems connected with something on the file, because I try to export another project and it work perfectly.

   The file was all "green" in the preliminary checks panel.

   And I notice that the system crash also using other function, example scrolling the pages list or the links list.

   There is something wrong in the new version 15.1 that stops the compiling. Unfortunately no errors appear, only application crash.

   Coming back to version 15.0.3 have solved the problem and the file was perfectly exported in PDF.

   Today I have updated to InDesign 15.1 and when I try to export to PDF the application immediately crash.

4. Screen flickering - Screen turns black when moving objects.

   When i drag and drop a Textframe my Screen flickers black for a second - almost every damn time. This happens for me and most of my colleagues and it is horrible to work with.

   I feel like it got worse after installing the latest "Tablehead" fix that fixed the disapearing tableheads.

   Build 12.1.0.56
   OS X El Capitan 10.11.6
   iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5", 2015)
   3,3 GHz Intel Core i7
   16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
   Intel Iris Pro Graphics 6200 1536 MB

   2nd Monior is a DELL U2414H, 23,5" at 1800p

   This is happening on quite a lot of machines in my Company and also for Persons i know using a 4K Retina iMac. and Really is a pain to work with. - It is NOT visible in a Screenrecording the only option would be to record a Video from my Smartphone if needed...

   Thanks!

   The issue reported is at Apple’s end.
   Hence, Apple is recommending to update macOS to 10.15.x version in order to resolve this issue.

   Please update your macOS to Catalina. If you still face this issue in macOS 10.15 do add your comment in this thread.

5. [ID-4216880]Placed graphic displays and exports outside stroke.

   A placed graphic will show onscreen and in graphic exports like PNG and JPG outside the stroke when the stroke is aligned to the inside of the frame. InDesign 2020 and earlier. To reproduce: place a graphic, add a stroke to the frame, align stroke to inside, export the page to jpg or png. A thin portion of the image is visible outside the stroke. Obviously, this is most noticeable when the stroke is thick and white.

6. Khmer script justification is broken

   With the CC version, having World-Ready Composer enabled, Khmer script justification is still broken. I tried to use the text with and without ZWSP, and it's all the same. There was a thread talking about it https://forums.adobe.com/message/5030301 but seems no any new update.

   The justification is also broken in Photoshop CC.

7. [Break in CC 2018] Text frame properties lost when copying and pasting frames across document

   I have a document that uses top justification in a text frame, and bottom justification in another text frame. When I copy these frames, with or without any other objects, into a new document (think business card imposition), the bottom justification changes to top justification, altering the layout of the document.

   I have reset my preferences, and tried the fixes described here: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2402361 and here https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2401857

   With no success.

   Attached is a 1UP file (Original with mixed justification) and a 24UP file (with resulting error)

    Hi,
    In order to reproduce the issue we sent information to all the affected users who have either voted or commented on this thread.
    Based on the replies we got we could infer that the issue is occurring when a third party software or application is also running in parallel. Some examples of the software used include Global Auto-correct, Google Chrome,
    Moreover, when the issue occurs it seems to hamper all CC applications such as Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop.
    A possible fix for the solution includes restarting the application or restarting the system.

    In the absence of any consistent reproducible steps, we are currently closing this thread as “not reproducible”. In case you again encounter the issue, please create a new thread mentioning the steps with which we can reproduce the issue and additional softwares, if in case any, that you are using.

    Thanks,

11. InDesign Color Settings Are Overwritten by Other Versions

    Summary:
    InDesign is unable to maintain separate color settings for each version. Whenever a different version is activated, the color settings are forcibly overwritten by the last activated version.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    Launch InDesign 2025 and set the color settings to “Preset A” (e.g., a print vendor’s recommended settings).
    Launch and activate InDesign 2024.
    Without any warning, InDesign 2024 will adopt the same Preset A color settings.
    This also occurs in the opposite direction: activating either version will overwrite the other’s previously configured color settings.

    Expected Behavior:
    Like Photoshop and Illustrator, InDesign should maintain independent color settings for each version.

    Actual Behavior:
    InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Bridge all write the currently selected color setting preset to the shared sync file:
    ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Color/ACEConfigCache2.lst
    This file is what allows Bridge to synchronize color settings across Adobe apps.

    However, InDesign is the only application that overwrites the settings record for another version of InDesign, regardless of version.

    Root Cause:
    All apps use the same file, but only InDesign fails to differentiate versions.
    This causes one version of InDesign to overwrite the color settings of another—simply by being activated.

    Commentary:
    This behavior disrupts professional workflows.
    In environments such as print production where different versions of InDesign must use different color settings (e.g., for different clients or print vendors), this is a critical issue.

    InDesign should follow the same behavior as Photoshop and Illustrator:
    Write version-specific entries to ACEConfigCache2.lst, and avoid overwriting other versions’ settings.

    Summary:
    InDesign is unable to maintain separate color settings for each version. Whenever a different version is activated, the color settings are forcibly overwritten by the last activated version.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    Launch InDesign 2025 and set the color settings to “Preset A” (e.g., a print vendor’s recommended settings).
    Launch and activate InDesign 2024.
    Without any warning, InDesign 2024 will adopt the same Preset A color settings.
    This also occurs in the opposite direction: activating either version will overwrite the other’s previously configured color settings.

    Expected Behavior:
    Like Photoshop and Illustrator, InDesign should maintain independent color settings for each version.

14. Color Settings Not Sticking

    Upon updating to InDesign 2019 (14.0) my color settings are no longer retained.

    As soon as I quit the app and restart the color settings go back to "Emulate Adobe InDesign 2.0 CMS Off"

    I have reinstalled the app.
    I have wiped all settings.
    I have cleared the Adobe Color Cache folder.

15. InDesign False Ligatures Bug

    InDesign sometimes, seemingly randomly, replaces pairs such as hn, il, io, sy, ek, etc. with completely wrong glyph, such as accented Y, U, etc., when regular Ligature setting is applied. This has been a problem since CS5 and we recently had it occur in CC2015, so it is still there. Affected fonts have been many over the years, including licensed Adobe fonts. Fonts can be Open Type or PostScript. Language setting can be English US, UK, or seemingly anything else. The only thing that works to avoid it is to turn off Ligatures which is generally unacceptable, so the only workaround is a targeted GREP style to apply ligatures to only the pairs that should have them for that file. This is a long-standing problem which has been reported in forums various times and needs to be addressed. There is no sure fire way to reproduce the bug. Only thing that sometimes works is to brute force load/unload fonts until the problem occurs. It seems that once the problem occurs the first time it may then become more frequent on that computer. I know someone who has even seen the effects of this problem in printed material (i.e., in a book they were reading).

16. [ID-4265002][ExtendScript] Folder.execute() no longer works in Indesign 20.4

    Folder.execute() no longer reveals the folder and activate the Finder. It does nothing. Tested on Indesign 20.4 on MacOS 15.5.

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Run this ExtendScript:

    
        Folder.desktop.execute();
    
    

    Expected result: activating the Finder, revealing the Desktop folder.

    Actual result: nothing.

17. [ID-4257175]Pages Panel: Buttons are hidden behind page number text when window is thin

    When the pages panel is as thin as possible, the buttons such as delete page are behind the text that says the number of pages. It is therefore not possible to click on the buttons. I always use this panel in a thin band, and it is now less practical.

    Version: InDesign 20.0.0

18. InDesign 15.1.1 English dictionary missing plural word spellings

    Since the update every plural word version is not in the dictionary. Simple, basic words like 'years' and 'days' now show as a spelling error. It was working fine before the latest update. Get it fixed - it's pointless having the spellchecker when so many basic words are missing!

19. Shortcuts and keyboard keys stop working.

    CC2018, Windows 10, latest update as of 01/18/18, x64 system with 12GB RAM. I often have to close and reopen documents or InDesign itself for shortcuts and some keys to work. There does not seem to be a common cause or specific file(s) that sets it off and it may or may not happen to all open documents if more than one is open. Generally closing the document and reopening it helps, but there have been times where I have to restart the program for anything to work. The issue includes any shortcuts and sometimes keys such as the arrow keys when trying to edge a graphic or text box over. Generally, I am able to type in the file name if I am trying to save my work before I close the program, but there have been times that my keyboard is disabled there as well and I have to save over what I have open, rely on the auto-backup file, or duplicate the file in Explorer and rename it so I don't lose the original file. This has not been an issue in any other programs except InDesign and has only been in the past few weeks. The crashing since the last update has subsided, but this issue has not. I would love to know how to fix this.

20. [ID-4271100]With Application Frame "OFF", Green Maximize Button Doesn't Zoom to Fit Anymore

    ID 21.0
    OSX 15.7.1

    Just updated ID and all the previous docs I've been working on today, are opening in huge windows. It takes a few resizes to scale down the window, then grabbing the bottom right corner to resize the window finally, it's jumping away from the cursor.

    Resizing windows when tiling still does that (as per the previous version/bug), which is also super annoying. Please fix all these bugs!! It's like no one at Adobe uses these products
