    With 19.0 release we had added the support of Harfbuzz shaper as a default for World-Ready Composer in InDesign. Post that few issues were reported related Hebrew Text.

    Over the period of ID19.x releases we have fixed various issues related to Harfbuzz shaper that are listed below:

    1. Incorrect text direction when mixed languages are used.

    2. Punctuation marks are getting lost when exporting it to PDFs.

    3. When we apply forced line breaks, the right-to-left text changes to left-lo-right.

    4. Overlapping of right-to-left text we place any .psd file in the textframe.

    5. Selection and cursor navigation issues when we try to edit tables in story editor.

    6. Text overlapping upon creating outlines when it contains footnote reference.

    From ID19.4 version onwards, we have also provided a preference within the application to allow users to switch to legacy shaping engine for World-Ready Composer in case users are facing issues…

    The current situation with InDesign's buggy shaping engine is unacceptable and poses significant risks:

    1. Lack of indicators: There are no clear signs when the buggy shaping engine is active.

    2. Hidden issues: It's impossible to detect these bugs within InDesign itself.

    3. Preference reset risks: If preferences are reset and the engine isn't changed back, it could lead to serious errors.

    4. Financial implications: Will Adobe compensate clients for missing characters in printed materials? A colleague had to reprint 2,000 copies of a cover due to this bug, incurring substantial costs.

    5. Loss of reliability: InDesign's motto used to be "What you see is what you get." Now, it's more accurate to say, "What you see is maybe what you get."

    This situation undermines InDesign's reliability and could have severe consequences for professionals who depend on its accuracy.

    it's a shame we still not have a real modern text engine for RTL
