    I found a workaround to this, using data merge.
    When you create the source data for data merge like in https://www.tech4pub.com/2015/02/03/indesign-cc-tip-adding-qr-codes-with-data-merge/, you can specify vcard version 3.0 instead of 2.1 and then the issues goes away. Terribly annoying if you only need to make one or a couple of codes, but it works.

    I used the concatenation function in excel to generate the vcard data from existing cells of data. Also terribly annoying.

    This function from adobe "works" but is not really usable. Really makes you wonder what they do with our money.

  2. Allow Data Merge to use .csv with semicolon separated text
