   To identify the cause of this issue, we had started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.

   We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the finding : Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent in nature at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.

   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)

3. Data Merge causes crash/lock-up when displaying panels on second screen

   When displaying my panels on a second monitor using InDesign and then trying to begin a data merge the application crashes and becomes unresponsive.

   If I change the layout of the panels to one screen (the default layout) it works fine.

   I've uninstalled InDesign and reinstalled, also deleting my preferences folders/files.

   I can select the data source and insert one field, but then clicking on anything else after the first field has been inserted causes the application to stop responding.

   I've attached a screenshot of the panels on the second screen for your reference - there are no panels on the primary screen.

4. On the Radar? New character for uppercase "ß" in germany – dont forget to be able to disable auto-"ß" into SS…

   If I use shift+"ß", InDesign changes to "SS" – so far so good. But that got revised 29.7.2017. I hope thats on InD's radar.

   "Anfang 2008 wurde das große ß als neues Zeichen in den internationalen Standard Unicode für Computerzeichensätze aufgenommen, am 24. Juni 2008 trat die entsprechende Ergänzung der Norm ISO/IEC 10646 in Kraft.[1] Seit dem 29. Juni 2017 ist das ẞ Bestandteil der amtlichen deutschen Rechtschreibung.[2][3]"

6. InDesign freezing when pressing backspace in a text box of more than 500 or 600 words

   This only seems to be a problem when using long text boxes more than a few hundred words. InDesign starts to slow down while I'm typing, but if I then select text or press backspace (mostly the latter) then InDesign freezes for 10 to 15 seconds.

   I've searched the problem, but the only solution I have found is to try closing the info panel, but this seems to be a CS3 fix and doesn't work.

7. CC Files in InDesign not showing up

   I shared files using CC Files for teams using my work account, and the sync with my account on my home computer in the user folder/creative cloud files, however they don't show up in the START workspace when I launch InDesign. How do I get these files to show up in the application?

8. The order of Arabic digits is reversed when changing their character direction

   1. Adobe InDesign CC 2017.1
   2. Create a textbox, type Arabic characters including some digits. Change character direction from 'Default' to 'Right to Left'.
   3. Arabic letters are RTL, but Arabic digits are written LTR; So when you change character direction to RTL, they should be in their right direction.
   4. Letters are RTL, but digits are reversed. The problem is that Arabic script is written RTL, but its digits' direction is LTR. Just like when you move caret and logically it moves in correct direction.

10. Hyperlinks

    I use a lot of hyperlinks in a document which link to the individual products on our website for online ordering and stock levels.

    The Hyperlink panel frequently corrupts - I lose the ‘traffic light’ link status indicator and location of the link (page No.) - meaning I have to remove InDesign and execute a clean install to get the feature back.

12. History / Control + Z, Control + Shift + Z Functionality Broken

    When using the program normally, indesign will periodically delete ALL history between the current action and "Open" and erase it. Often within seconds of performing said actions. This has hamstrung all functionality of indesign in the context we use it for.

    Reproduction: Normal Use

    Version: Indesign 20.5.1

    Expected result: History stretching back to document open, related undo/redo functionality

    Actual result: Not that. No document history besides open, no related functionality.

    Attached file shows a document that had been open and actively worked on for 3 hours prior to viewing the history panel, as well as the history actions being removed in-use.

14. Object Menu, Arrange for Text blocks not working

    InDesign version 21.0.2 x64

    I have used Adobe InDesign since 1997 (first introduced to me at school while I was learning Quark), more full-time since 2002 (worked at a newspaper). I have always been able to use the Object menu to either move objects in front of or in back of others. This still seems to work in 2025 with actual objects, i.e., rectangles, ovals, etc. It no longer works as of today with text blocks. In my remote conversation with Manoj, the only workaround is to either type my text into a color block and reposition it, or perhaps shorten my other color block and add text on top of it. This happened after a recent Windows 11 update, but, the program worked as expected until this morning. That leads me to believe this was a deliberate change by Adobe. That's ridiculous, in my opinion. WHY would Adobe remove a key feature from InDesign's page layout function? Please return this function - it's important for those who spend much of their time doing page layouts for clients. Thank you.

17. Updated version 21.0.2 features not working

    Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server: 21.0.2, updated 12.01.2025
    Steps to reproduce the issues: There are multiple issues occurring.
    1. Open existing file, last saved on 11.03.2025.
    2. App freezes when trying to use any function, e.g. copy/paste, duplicate page. Takes up a few minutes for any function to complete.
    3. When trying to save the file, I have to save as a new file.
    4. When exporting to PDF, does not Use InDesign Document Name as the Output File Name despite being selected. If selecting Range, only allows All Pages in dropdown. Does not export accessibility tags despite having both Create Tagged PDF and Use Structure for Tab Order are selected.

    Expected result: for the file to use the document name as the PDF file name, for it to be able to export only a range, and to have accessibility tags preserved in PDF.

    Actual result:
    1. Freeze and lag with each step of the process.
    2. File will not export to PDF. Sometimes getting a Failure pop up but cannot identify any issue.
    3. Have to choose option to open file with, but it does not save the file in the location I selected. I have to resave it in order to run Accessibility Checker.
    4. No tags export with file even though everything is properly mapped in InDesign and exports made 11.3.25 retained the tags.

    Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional)

19. resizing

    I'm unfortunately using InDesign 2026.0.2. One of my coworkers had the brilliant idea to update on day 1 ...
    I'm on Apple Silicon M1, with 2 monitors. Now, when I open up any document (I don't use application frame) it opens normal, as in any version before, size of 1 monitor, between upper task bar and macOS (26.1) dock. But as soon as you do anything, including opening a second file, the canvas expands way beyond the lower end and the right side of the monitor, making it impossible to work on the lower part of the last page of a document. The only way to avoid it, is to resize the canvas window as the first step after opening. Still opening a second file ruins that work around.
    It's annoying, as InDesign was actually for me the only Adobe program that was made with usability in mind. Using and loving it (mostly ;)) since version 1.5. And now I'm spending more time closing and opening files than actually working on them.
    Thanks for helping me with the problem.

20. Drop Cap kerning and tweaking

    Can the team look at users being able to kern and make further edits to Drop Caps, to fit better with body text rather than having to manually paste in an anchored object to get it to look the way we want?
