   Hi,

   We are aware of one scenario where the issue is reproducible. The workaround resolves the known scenario as stated below:

   • Open the document in InDesign 19.5.
   • Export it to IDML.
   • Open the IDML in InDesign 20.0.

   Please share the document with us at sharewithID@adobe.com.

   Same problem here. I installed Indesign 2025 and an 80 page book I was working on refused to open without any error messages.. just nothing. Other documents with the same fonts and styling opened without issues. I have backup copies in time machine going back to August and none of them opened. I sent the file to Adobe who said it was down to corrupted links and sent me the file back... which didn't open!
   
   This morning I reinstalled the 2024 version and my original file opened without any problems.
   
   Great news for my book but now I'm stuck in the 2024 version and newer jobs have been saved in the 2025 version so I cannot access them until I update again! With these new jobs I tried the reverse conversion process but it doesn't work.
   
   This is completely unacceptable. Adobe needs to sort this out urgently.
