1. »Create outlines« of text on a circle path is making weird things

   v 17.0.1
   Intel Mac
   Big Sur

   If you have a longer text written on a circle path and try to »Create Outlines« it fails at one area: The text gets smaller and is kind of turned around.

   This only happens with longer text: Short text seems to work ok.

4. [ID-4239165]InDesign fails to open or place files with long paths in Windows

   InDesign fails to open or place files with long paths in Windows. The "Long Paths Enabled" registry setting is enabled (i.e. it is set to 1). The problem affects several functions:

   1. From Bridge, Place > In Indesign causes "Script Alert: Error: Expected a reference to an existing File/Folder"

   2. DataMerge in InDesign: images with long paths are skipped, i.e. aren't merged. There is no error message.

   3. From InDesign. I cannot manually place a file with a long path through the “Place” dialog box. The dialog box will display the folder and thumbnails, but when I click the image to place it, I get the following error: “The file could not be opened. You may not have permission or the file may be in use by another application.”

   All of these symptoms suggests that InDesign does not support Long Paths in Windows.

5. Files change to 'Read Only' when I click on 'Save'

   When I have updated to 16.2.1 x64 of InDesign I am experiencing an issue where files are becoming 'read only' once I have clicked save manually. I then have to re-save the document as a new filename and then go back and delete the original. It is happening when I am using Dropbox. I have experienced this using Dropbox at home and in work and has only started to happen once I have clicked 'save' manually with the latest version of InDesign

8. Error(#18, #22, #23, #33, #39, #40) while trying to publish your documents using Publish Online in InDesign

   Hi,
   I work on InDesign 16.1 on macOS Big Sur 11.2.1.
   Since April 2nd, error #18 PublishOnline has been occurring when I try to publish online any of my documents. I tried on several computers and it still failed at 98%. I also tried with a blank file and the problem was there too. My files work well when opened with another account.
   Please find attached a screenshot of the error as well as a test file. I tried every solution on the help center and it didn't work. Could the issue come from my account? What solutions can you suggest? It's my working tool and I really need a quick solution. Many thanks in advance for your help.

9. InDesign does not remember window size and position

   When opening a document, InDesign should remember the window size and position when it was closed. Illustrator does this, Photoshop does, this BUT NOT INDESIGN!! Why? Please fix it.

10. PDF comments importation Issue (wrong position)

    1. Indesign 16.1 Windows 10
    2. Create a text with no stroke, duplicate it and add a stroke. Export a pdf, insert comments in adobe acrobat, the import the pdf comments in Indesign.
    3. The PDF comments should be imported a their position.
    4. The PDF comments are not imported on their position on the text with a stroke.

    I have an issue when I import PDF comments :
    The issue is that comments are displaced and not aligned at their correct location in the Indd project doc that make the PDF.

    I spent some times on this, and found the reason :
    If your text has a stroke, then the comments wil be displaced.
    If your text has no stroke, no issue.

    On the pic attached, you can see on the left, the inserted comment on the PDF, and on the right, The imported comments on Indesign.

    Thank you

11. Disable cross-references

    InDesign is far too slow when you have too many cross-references in a single document - and by too many I mean not many at all (I have 30 in one of mine, and the document grinds to a halt all the time). Whilst opening every single document that is references helps a bit, this is far from a satisfactory solution. At a minimum it should be possible to disable cross-references whenever you want, to avoid the performance hit. It would also be a good idea to fix the cross-references issue completely, so that cross-references are not constantly being updated all the time.

12. Table borders, strokes, artifacted in InDesign problem

    InDesign ver. 16.1 (2021): Table borders and strokes created on a separate layer and artifacted in InDesign are not tagged as artifacts when converted to PDF.
    Close to a hundred "Path Object" errors flagged by the PAC 3 Accessibility Checker which we are required to use. The problem is none of these borders and strokes can be accessed in Acrobat with the Reading Order tool and therefore cannot be marqueed as artifacts. They are simply “not available” in Acrobat, yet PAC 3 flags them as “Path Object Not Tagged” errors.
    ~ Replacing tables with paragraph borders (on single layer) in InDesign results in same issue in Acrobat - paragraph borders are tagged as errors by PAC 3 and cannot be accessed.
    ~ Removing all Table Borders, Row Strokes and Column Strokes in InDesign Table Options does not help. PAC 3 still flags "non-existent" Row Strokes/borders as “Path Object Not Tagged” errors.

13. Share for Review from InDesign Book 'artifact' error

    When I try to share chapters from a book for review the Share for Review either doesn't function beyond clicking the 'Share for Review' 'Create New Review' or populates the details with the wrong file name and then fails to proceed (giving an 'artefact' error.

    I solved it by doing the chapters one at a time with no other chapters open and the InDesign Book closed - but it took me a few hours to work this out.

    Even when doing the chapters separately their Title Field of the Share for Review document is sometimes the previous document's name and I have to go back a step or use the delete review copy option to get a fresh (and correct) start.

14. cc library

    Hi!
    [Indesign 16.0.2, macbook with Catalina]
    The CC Library freezes and i can't click any colors or elements. It is not possible to scroll in the library or change library. The issue sometimes is resolved when I restart the program but often not. I had this issue with an earlier version of Indesign too.

16. Publish online doesn't work properly in chrome browser on new mobile devices (android)

    Hi there,

    We have published an interactive document with Indesign "publish online" feature. It works flawlessly in every browser, except in Chrome on some new mobiles phones with Android (not possible to go back or forward through pages or zoom). On the contrary, Interactivity and videos work properly.

    We have the last indesign version (2021. Creative suite)

    What's the problem?
    Thanks in advance

17. Having problems naming alternate layouts within the pages panel since update to Big Sur

    Problems started after updating to MacOS Big Sur
    Indesign 2021 - (2020 same problem)

    I can't rename the alternate layouts in the PAGES panel when the panel is docked. If the panel is floating free, there is no problem.
    I never had this issue before, it al started after updating to Mac OS Big Sur.

18. Unable to kill find missing fonts background process

    If the preferences setting to automatically find missing fonts is set, there are three major issues:

    1/ The background process never times out,
    2/ The background process severely degrades InDesign performance for everything else, and
    3/ There is no way to manually kill that background process. If we could, then issues 1 and 2 would not be such problems. If the fonts aren't found, or the internet connection is hinky, or if the Adobe servers are under heavy load or having other issues, we could just kill that background process and then either try again later or design an workaround without those missing fonts.

    The ability to kill this background process is a glaring design gap. We should be able to kill it, or at least disable it for a document (like we can disable automatic preflight).

19. Unable to drag & drop images into Indesign 2021 Open File

    • Set-up a new document
    • Have added text and images as normal.
    • Command + D is successful when placing an image, however, drag & drop does nothing. No image shows in the thumbnail near the cursor either.

    This is an issue as it is much quicker to drag & drop than placing the images from different locations.

20. Border is not extending when table comes

    I am using InDesign CC 2019

    Expected Result:
    While using InDesign Border Features to format box items, there is an option to Merge consecutive Border and Shading with same setting in paragraph style. This is working for text and Images. But when inline table comes in between, border is not extending for tables.

    Actual result
    I have attached screenshot of expected result and actual result for your quick reference.
