    Hi all,

    Thanks for the detailed feedback on this thread. Reopening it, because we're still actively working on the issue. A few updates:

    Relinking: the case where manually entered alt text was overwritten by generated alt text on relink was fixed in 21.4. If you're still seeing manual alt text get overwritten after relinking, reply here with a sample file and your InDesign version and we'll investigate directly.

    Remove all generated alt text: an option to remove all generated alt text from a document in a single action is on the way.

    We hear the wider feedback here too, and we're keeping this open while we work through it.

    Best regards,

    Sunny

    As somebody who does research reports and just discovered that Adobe is inserting completely inaccurate alt text to describe our figures (without our consent), I could not agree more with this. What a terrible user experience, terrible use of AI, terrible for accessibility. Please, please, please make this all Opt-In. The worst part is the place where I'm supposedly able to disable it doesn't exist for me in InDesign. UGGGGGG
