Activated Fonts aren't showing in the font drop down
The activated fonts aren't showing in the font drop down. They are showing under the Type menu at the top though. Nothing that I can't work with, Just very inconvenient

Publish Online thicker navigation arrows - option to turn OFF
The hard coded previous/next page arrows are noticeably thicker and can spoil some designs and therefore the user experience. Can we have an option to turn them OFF.
Ajar In5 already has this. Seems like a simple enough option?

Indesign GPU enablement on Windows
InDesign 17.4 x64
It would be nice and desirable if there was also GPU support in Indesign and Windows 11 Pro like Photoshop and Illustrator.

Workspace not being saved
In 17.4, the workspace is not being saved. You have to go to Windows and pick a workspace in order to do anything. What comes up is nothing, no menu bars at all.

Source Sans shifting down issue
Source Sans or INDD has changed from version 17.3 to 17.4. All of the type gets baseline shifted down when you create a new file or if you open up an existing INDD file with Source Sans. It all pushes down inside the text window.
Either an INDD problem or Source Sans coding has changed. Please resolve--its our house typeface.

Myself and 1 other colleague working on windows computer constantly get a 'PDF failed to export' message. Even on brand new small documents. Another colleague working on a Mac is able to export the same documents. We are all running on the same version.

text lag is severe in 17.3 compared to slight lag in 17.2
Mac OS 12.5, Indesign 17.3
anything that makes text reflow: Text edits, style changes, text wrap around an object lag severely in 17.3. The more text the longer the lag. Can be multiple seconds on a single page doc up to just crashing on an edit to a 50+ page doc when reflowing text.
I have reverted to 17.2 their is still a little lag but only a second or 2.
The forum interfacer won't let me upload indesign format files so I cannot provide test files. Email me if you need them.

Share for review missing annotations
Using 17.1 and just upgraded to 17.3. Have loved share for review, but recently I'm unable to see location of annotations from inside ID app or multiple web browsers: Editor leaves a note, I can see the note, but there's nothing to indicate where the note belongs on the page--not all of A's comments but many of them. Other editors also can't see the annotations either.

Error message when trying to open InDesign file
I continually get an error that InDesign cannot open a file because it was created in a newer version and that I need to update...the problem is that I created the file 10 minutes ago and there is no update to be done.

Style mapping no longer seems to work between Word and InDesign
Previously I was able to import Word (v16.62) documents into InDesign and map its Paragraph Styles to my INDD template's Paragraph Styles.
In the latest version of InDesign (17.2.1), this does not seem to work, and the Paragraph Styles only come in in a single style.
I have gone back and tested this using old files, which previously worked, but they now do not work: the Style Mapping doesn't seem to register at all.

gpu
Graphics Card not being used on macOS.
I am using a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) with AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB, however the GPU is never being used (according to activity monitor).
Within Indesign, the GPU is detected, and the GPU-Performance is enabled.The performance is really bad and many times the CPU maxes out at 100%, which makes sense because the dedicated GPU is never utilised.
But why? Shouldn't this work?

scroll bar disappears
My scroll bars are CONSTANTLY disappearing when working in InDesign and using key commands to zoom in and out. This is SO annoying, and I am always having to reset my workspace. Literally fix your buggy software or I'm leaving. This is ridiculous.

Convert PDF to editable InDesign document
Why does acrobat not enable you to export an editable document to InDesign? We know it is possible as there is 3rd party software to do it. I understand you would need to relink pictures, but it is crazy that you cannot export an editable PDF - Indesign. I also know I am not the first person to request this.

InDesign export file location resets every time
InDesign export seems to have been a bit broken in the latest release.
When exporting a PDF, InDesign forgets the previous file location and working file location, prompting me to export to the desktop every time.
I'm seeing this behaviour on both of my Macbook Pros. Both are 2019 16" laptops running MacOS Monterey.
Is anyone else seeing this behaviour?

Paste without formatting option disappeared, CTRL+Shift+V not working
There was previously an option to Paste with Formatting and Paste Without Formatting, and after recent updates, the options have disappeared and paste functioning is working incorrectly. I used both of these functions for various reasons, and would greatly appreciate it coming back! I could use CTRL+Shift+V to paste without formatting, or, if I clicked into a text box and right clicked, there were for options: Cut | Copy | Paste | Paste Without Formatting. Now, only the first three appear as options and I've lost the fourth function. There are times when I WANT to paste with formatting, though mostly I paste without formatting. Now, I don't see a Right-Click menu option for "paste without formatting" and even using CTRL+Shift+V is not working. Now, the default paste seems to be "without formatting" except even then, it's pasting with the incorrect formatting - not retaining the original settings from Word, nor adopting the settings I'm pasting into. This is a significant in-efficiency as I'm having to redo paragraph styles for all paragraphs, instead of it overlaying the text I want to replace and maintaining the InDesign paragraph styles I had with the previous text.
I'm in v17.2.1; recently upgraded to Windows 11 also.

Data Merge to PDF duplicating fields
When using Export to PDF directly from the Data Merge tab the first 3 records are duplicated on each page. It uses the same data on every single page. If you first create an InDesign merged document the data is correct

Id CC 2022 pdf export and assemblage issue + links not displaying correctly
Indesign, version 2022 17.2.1. / Mac Monterey version 12.3.1.
My file's links are not displaying correctly when viewing in high quality. Photos all appear black/gray streaked (see attached files).
They only display correctly when the display is standard.
Then, and this is the biggest problem, I can't export pdf or do assembly. When I try to export a pdf, I get the following error message: "This document contains links to files or URLs that are not accessible. Please check your network connectivity or the original source of the content."
But all my files are linked, there is no error on that side. I even did the test with an old assembled file, and the same problem occurs.
The only solution I found is to reimport each link one by one each time I open my file, and then I can export or assemble. But if I quit Indesign, when I reopen the file the problem starts again.
I talk to someone from Adobe on the chat, but he couldn't help me, apparently the issue is new to Adobe. So he ask me to report the issue here for the ingeneers. If someone could help me... thanks !Indesign, version 2022 17.2.1. / Mac Monterey version 12.3.1.

Actual Size is not Actual Size
I was trying to view art at "Actual Size" under "View" and using the shortcut. The art is 9" and it is showing 11.0625" instead in InDesign 2022 (v17.2). I would really appreciate this being fixed as soon as possible. Or a solution as to why this is happening to be forthcoming. Thanks!
