[ID-4256404]InDesign crashes consistently on book pdf export
InDesign 20, Mac Ventura 13.7. iMac 27in, 2017.
Every time I try to export a Book to PDF InDesign crashes. Crash occurs even with just one idd doc in the book (with nothing in the doc besides a single page with one rectangle shape).
The fix of the issue is now available in the latest InDesign 2025(v20.0.1.032). We recommend you upgrade to the latest version for the fix.
If you are unable to see the update, go to the Creative Cloud application click on the context menu on the top right, and click on Check for App Updates.

I am a user of Windows 10 Pro version 22H2. I am experiencing the exact same phenomenon here. I am very troubled.

Has anything come of this? It is extremely annoying and has been happening to me ever since I updated InDesign last week.

PDF Interactive.
In the Book panel, add any InDesign file to the book.
Select the hamburger "more" dropdown in the Book panel, Select "Export Book to PDF". Select "PDF Interactive" in the Export dialog.Also occurs on a Macbook Pro 13in 2019 running Sonoma 14.6.1.
