- InDesign lags when rearranging text boxes, adding image frames, adjusting frames that already exist
- Selecting an item (e.g. text frame) in small and really uncomplicated documents has slight but very noticeable delays/lags, almost as if the click hangs and makes the item drag a little instead of just being selected.
- Performance degradation is observed if more than 1 document is opened
- Creating packages (File > Package) takes so much time – especially collecting image files into the Links-folder. This behavior is generally observed with Illustrator files.
- Performance degradation is observed while working on indd document and not with the IDML of the indd document.
- Lag observed for almost every action from selecting objects, resizing objects, or moving objects
Troubleshooting steps tried to resolve issues
- Disable 3rd party plugins - One of the customer has tried with Suitcase Fusion but there was no improvement in the performance.

This needs resolved. I'm sorry, but I have found numerous identical topics relating to this same issue in InDesign dating back the past few years. All of which end up getting 'solved' and closed which I guess stops people being able to add a comment so it looks like less of a problem. This is a major issue accross multiple versions of InDesign and it shows the underlying problem is simply not being fixed. I'm on a top spec laptop which breezes through 500mb+ PSD files so it is not an issue with my PC.
It's ridiculous that in 2020 I need to turn my network and internet off to get InDesign to work. No other Adobe apps display this behaviour so it is an innate InDesign bug.
If anyone else is experiencing this extremely slow behaviour, try turning the network off.

I would like to add that I have successfully been able to update a link that I was previously unable to update (and that previously would crash InDesign). My solution was to delete many 'Resolved' comments. I deleted around 500 comments, bringing the total remaining comments down to about 150-200 and I am now able to work with the 'Share for Review' feature. The 'Share for Review' panel within InDesign is now MUCH faster.

Hi Ravi, unfortunately this is not fixed. InDesign crashes whenever I try to update my 'Share for Review' link. Can you please reopen this ticket?

We need the ability to export comments for record keeping. This would be a very useful feature.

Please add the ability to assign multiple owners. Currently this is a 'collaborative feature' that still requires a single persons actions as a bottleneck.

Many internal as well as external factors can cause the InDesign application to perform poorly.
We completed the investigation and came up with the following: Either the issue has been resolved in the most recent release of InDesign (Refer to InDesign Release notes), the issue was intermittent at the time of reporting and is no longer reproducible, or the InDesign version mentioned in the report is no longer covered by Creative Cloud Support Policy.
We would recommend you upgrade to the latest version as it is more robust. If you are still facing this issue even after updating it, create a new UserVoice thread or Contact Adobe support.

If you scroll down I commented on this in 2020 and it is STILL the case in 2025. 5 years and if anything, it is even SLOWER. InDesign is painfully slow at selecting, moving, unselecting - everything comes with a major lag. Over the last 5 years I've been on numerous top spec computers and the one thing in common is painfully slow InDesign performance. Adobe should be ashamed. For the extortionate price we pay, the software should work.
