    We have made some Performance Improvements in the latest InDesign Release 2025 (Version 20.1), available via Creative Cloud Desktop application. This issue has also been fixed as part of performance improvements.


    Please let us know if you still face slowdown while doing basic operations in this latest InDesign release.

    Checking up if 20.1 did the trick. It appears not. Adobe, please throw some gas on this and escalate.

    InDesign is the workhorse for many creatives. It won't be long before a client (who is the middle man) sends me a 2025 InDesign for Windows file that I'll need to request be saved down, if we even know who created it.

    Hi Sanyam, I'd record the screen showing you the issue but I don't want to risk installing 2025 again.

    When I installed 2025, it changed a recently downloaded folder with many 2024 InDesigns to 2025 InDesign, even though I hadn't opened them in 2025, nor had the person sending them to me. When I tried opening them with 2024 it gave me:

    "InDesign could not open "File name.indd" because it has been created in a newer version - Adobe InDesign v20. You can convert and open this file but you may lose out on content created using the features specific to the latest versions.”

    Not good, and mercifully it wasn’t wide spread to all my InDesign files. So I uninstalled 2025 and then redownloaded that specific folder and they opened as 2024 with no issues.

    Nope!!

    Installed 2025, removed 2024. Big mistake. Up against tight deadline I watched the beach ball swirl, as fast as my cortisol surged, for what seemed like minutes by simply opening any file, moving pages, or making text edits.

    Couldn't reinstall 2024, remove 2025 fast enough.

  3. Turn paths into guides with the right click menu "Make guides" like in Illustrator.
