staticTexts.add({ staticLabel: "Doesn't the text inside automatically wrap to new lines?" });Doesn't the text inside automatically wrap to new lines? Setting the width doesn't seem to work either.I think I've seen people use jion(\n) to control line breaks.

Hello! I hope someone here can help me with my font issue.I’ve been having ongoing problems with various Adobe Fonts in InDesign.Several fonts no longer load, even though they have been marked as “active” or “added” in the Adobe Fonts program for ages, and had been working perfectly until recently.With some fonts, individual font styles are even missing and no longer displayed.In some cases, I was able to work around the issue by additionally installing the fonts via the Adobe Fonts app.However, even then I encountered the same issue: certain fonts within a font family couldn’t be loaded. They were missing both in the Fonts app and in InDesign.By repeatedly quitting InDesign and Adobe Creative Cloud, I was sometimes able to get a font to activate again.Another issue is that activated fonts hang forever in the background window saying "Loading fonts", and nothing happens.Under these circumstances, I can't generate a PDF either, since InDesign tries to load the missing fonts in the backg
Ever since we moved to InDesign 2024, we've noticed that the Links Panel will often overflow with linked assets and cause the panel to become unusable. To reproduce this, you first must have a lot of unique links in your document.Open the document and select one of the assets on the page, such as an image. The links panel will try to highlight the link, but it will get jumbled up and overflow with other links in the document. I have attached a screenshot of what we're getting.Platform: MacOS: macOS Sonoma 14.4Indesign Version: 19.3Troubleshooting steps taken so far:Reinstalled InDesign 2024.Reset InDesign's preferences.Switched to a default workspace rather than a custom workspace.Has anyone else seen this behaviour? Thanks
Hello,I already said it in short in the subject box above.How do I PERMANENTLY turn off the ligatures option in the character men? I have to switch it off every time after (e.g.) typing st. I can switch it off but a few minutes later (when typing st again) it is active again in the character menu. Strange enough (working in a large document of 100's of pages) not everywhere this st-persistence exists.Any ideas?Thanks in advance for your help!
Bonjour,J'ai un souci avec Indesign : la barre haute du logiciel ne s'affiche plus. Je n'ai donc la petite croix pour fermer, ou le bouton pour réduire. J'ai l'impression d'avoir tout essayé mais rien n'y fait... Je travaille sur plusieurs écrans et je ne peux même plus déplacer ma fenêtre InDesign sur un autre écran, elle reste coincée sur mon écran principal. Merci pour votre aide ! Sur la photo, vous voyez tout ce qui s'affiche en haut de page et donc qu'il manques quelques trucs :
I would like to increase the stroke weight of all text across a manuscript. Do I need to select the text on one page at a time to change it, or is there another way? Is there a way to change all the text at once? One page at a time may produce errors, and if I need to change it again may become laborious. Any help would be appreciated.Thank you very much.Adam
Looking for someone with EasyCatalog expertise for one of my project in InDesign.
Engrossed in producing our first 4-color offset book, a lengthy volume on architectural history and the built environment, forced, by circumstance to attempt to execute this at the highest level possible, comparable to anything by, e.g., Taschen, Prestel. Have spent years in development, negotiating image usage rights and all this entails, partly with grant monies, but largely supported by our press. I've had extradinary referrals on assistance in the area of separations (color separations and accurate translation to print), but am in quite a bind now. WIthout getting too bogged in the details, I'll bullet some areas:▪ Printing with be in Latvia at Livonia Print. They run Heidelberg presses and have done, for example, the recent volume Carla Scarpa: The Complete Buildings for Prestel (London), exemplifying the quality they are capable of▪ Printing on Artic Volume White stock, 130gsm▪ The printer refers out to exactly one pre-press repro house, in Sweden▪ The Swedish
I have placed text boxes in the parent pages. I am now trying to place text in the regular pages. I am placing text from a Word document (in the attached screenshot it's just filler, but it's from a Word document, not from InDesign itself). You can see the blue line where I built the text box in the parent page. Nevertheless, when I place text, it fills in everything within the margins, not within the text frame. The only solution I have found is to manually create text frames on the regular pages and then flow through those. But this is a bad option because if I need to change the margins, I have to go through and manually do it for every single text box. I have tried overriding, that doesn't work. I have tried placing directly into "page 8" in the screenshot, that works for the one page, but on the next page it exceeds the text box again. Can you please advise? I find this frustrating - if you cannot simply place text within the text boxes set up on the parent pages, then what is the

Good morning everyone,is it possible to include the section number in the cross-references? I can't find the option in the drop-down menu when I create the cross-reference format.
Is there a way to make the text flush left to the text box?I thought I could make the adjustment in Text Frame Options, but I cannot seem to find it.
Indesign works normally for some time but then it crashes when i do simple text editions (like adding space etc) or try to create new pages with automatic/manual linked text frames. I already uninstalled and reinstalled it, restarted my computer, created a new document and added text from 0, but it keeps happening. I sent tons of error reports. Don't know what to do anymore and i have an urgent work to deliver. Is anyone having the same issue?This is one error report: <?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE AdobeCrashReport SYSTEM "AdobeCrashReporter.dtd"><crashreport serviceVersion="26.5.0.202506270759_7140322" clientVersion="26.5.0.202506270759_7140322" applicationName="InDesign" applicationVersion="20.5.0" build="20.5.0.48" source="Windows-Client-WER" crashType="n/a"><time year="2025" month="9" day="4" hour="9" minute="23" second="45" timeoffset="-180" timezone="Hora oficial do Brasil" crsessionduration="1756988625"/><user guid="3e34810a-1db6-4166-ae82-
Can someone help me figure out why is the Indent here? the first line Indent is at zero
I don't classify these as true problems that impact my productivity or ability to deliver product, but they are things that I have never experienced before (despite profile status I have been using for many years). Reasonably certain this has occured on two different machines so I am not inclined to think its anything to do with corrupt preferences etc. The most persistent issue would be the dialog box labeled "Open 1 Documents" that won't disappear despite no documents being open. Sometimes I can get it to disappear by reopening the document that I just closed, (opening a document is what causes this dialog box to pop up sometimes). A number of times this has occured prior to getting the "serious error" shutdown. I am also gettng the scrambled text that has been an issue for others per historical posts. I eliminated the possibility that it is due to duplicate text boxes. Often occurs when applying paragraph composer to a specific paragraph. Used to be able to solve text scrambling on
Hi,I edit InDesign document and I wonder should color settings be RGB or CMYK. I will need to use this work in digital and print both. I will make it specific CMYK in export but in working space should it be RGB or CMYK?Thank you so much!

I need to travel with a new MacBook. Transferring the user settings from my desktop computer, using File>user settings>export user settings and importing the file gives me the error message 'Incompatible locale detected. Please choose a valid file to proceed.' I've ensured that both versions are up to date and the same. The date/time is the same. I have no idea where to go from here. <Title renamed by MOD>
Hi, I am wondering how do I get those Red (Close), Orange (minimise) and Green (epand) Buttons to return on the too in Indesign since they are missing????? Also its not allow me to drag the whole window to my other screen since everything is stuck on the top. I have tried reinstalling Indesign and that has not fixed it. Those buttons are on my other applications. I have attached a screen shot. Thanks
How do I tag a large number such as a 13 digit ISBN - so that a screen reader reads it as individual digits rather than a single nuneral?
I have twenty ID files, all needing to go to print PDF. Is there a script or way to just select the files and output in one shot?
I've been working with several documents and noticed that the text boxes aren't visually aligned, which results in a distorted or uneven text layout. Interestingly, the issue seems to "resolve" itself when I zoom in to 180% or higher. I'm wondering if there's a proper fix for this, or if anyone else has experienced something similar?
I ran into what I believe is a bug just now, but would like confirmation.(1) Create text box and add a stroke (add inset or other formatting to make it look nicer if you like).(2) Insert text as well as an anchored object into that text.(3) Change the blend mode of the stroke of the text box.For me, in InDesign 2015.4 on a Mac, the anchored object is given the blending mode of the stroke as well. I would expect that to only affect the stroke, and none of the content within the box. The anchored graphic I'm inserting doesn't even have a stroke. I tried this in a new file with different content and got the same result.I'm hoping that I'm missing something obvious. I'd like to keep this with everything in neat, single, self-contained, and auto-fitting boxes. The effect I'd like is for the stroke of the text box only to blend (multiply) with a background.The workaround I'm considering is doing the stroke as an outer glow instead, but I'll have rounded corners.Thanks,Rich
Does anyone know if there is a dedicated tool for recording and managing tasks and workflows in ID. So that required tasks can be monitored, how much has been completed etc. etc.I found this:https://www.aedev.tools/tools/taskflowBut it seems to be for Mac, and the author is not responding to messages. I know a way to make handle this manually but would like a dedicated tool for automation, if there is one. Thank You
