InDesign

I'm trying to add two different footnotes style on a page but it seems that InDesign won't allow that! So I have the usual numbering footnotes (1,2,3,4...) and then I have another style which is an asterisk  "*"I tried to change the footnote style but that did not work as you can only use one style in a document! Is there any way to bypass this?Thanks

Whe I leave InDesign (and Photoshop also) opened and Mac Mini goes in sleep mode, after waking up my workspace is misaligned.Some panels from secondary monitor are on primary monitor, but some stay right where they shoul be.I can easily reset my saved workspace, but still it is annoying.Not sure why is it happening.It is Mac Mini M4, latest macOS, and dual monitor setup.

I created a new “guides” layer and want to place it at the bottom.How do I do that?This catch seems incorrect; it should check whether this layer already exists.https://www.indesignjs.de/extendscriptAPI/indesign-latest/#Layers.html var myLayer = myDocument.layers.item("guides"); try { myLayerName = myLayer.name; } catch (myError) { var myLayer = myDocument.layers.add({ name: "guides" }); } 

Hello,I am using Place + Shift to add text from an rtf file and auto add pages. It works fine up to page 201 then there are no more pages added, even though the text continues for several more pages. I have tried several times with the same result at the same point. I have tried manually adding pages at the end but the text doesn't autoflow into them. The missing text is in the rtf doc and I can't see anything that would stop the import at that particular point (it is just a continuation of the text, no section or chapter breaks at that point.) Any suggestions? Running ID 2025 on Windows 11

Good evening!Since the latest InDesign update (20.5), I've been having issues displaying fonts and styles in the panel.While previously, when selecting non-homogeneous text (different fonts or roman and italic) the box remained empty, now "majority" fonts and styles appear. Is this a problem with this update or with my PC (Windows 10)? Thank you in advance

Only yesterday did I poke around in Creative Cloud (6.7.0.278) and clicked on "Cloud Activity" out of curiosity while viewing my libraries. There are only six libraries with a few very simple files in them that I've added including also very simple InDesign templates I created. I may have clicked on a sync button and the cloud activity indicator started its twirling. This morning I came back to that and saw that little twirl still going.Is this normal, or is it stuck? If this matters from "About Creative Cloud" menu item:  Creative Cloud Libraries Synchronizer (CC Library) 4.11.13. Also iMac desktop, Sequoia 15.6.1 InDesign 2025, v 20.5.0.48 

Suppose my script directory is:..\myFile\myScript\copyToGrep.jsxMy regular expression directory is:..\myFile\myGrep\aaa.xmlI want to copy aaa.xml to the GREP directory:C:\Users\olo\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 19.0-J\zh_CN\Find-Change Queries\GREPFirst clear the files in GREP, then copy. The version number 19.0 is automatically recognized. Alternatively, if can open the specified directory in the script, which is also a good option.

I came across this panel here. Later, I realized it was exactly the functionality I needed.https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/how-to-convert-units-within-a-dialog-window/m-p/14151789#M545441I've been tinkering with it for a while but haven't gotten it to work. When I select “Setting,” it executes the function below it. If “All (A, B, C)” is checked, it sequentially executes the three functions A, B, and C. Otherwise, it executes only one function.When selecting “only open position,” it only opens the selected path.Thanks.//Open the path, such as the shortcut location: //Base path, Local path var bPath = app.scriptPreferences.scriptsFolder.parent.parent; var zh_CN = bPath.fsName; var localShortcut = zh_CN + "\\" + "InDesign Shortcut Sets" + "\\"; function ABC() { onlyA(); onlyB(); onlyC(); } function DEF() { onlyD(); onlyE(); onlyF(); } function onlyA() { var doSomething; } function onlyB() { var doSomething; } function onlyC() { var doSomet

As a designer, you can access and manage feedback using the Review panel in InDesign. Check out the help document here to know how to access the Review panel.     1. Why am I not receiving notifications from stakeholders?  After the reviewer provides feedback, you will receive a notification through the Creative Cloud application and through an email sent to you. If the email doesn’t show up, please check your junk/spam folder or refer to the best practices thread in the community.    2. Can I hide annotations while working on the reviewer’s comments?  Yes you can! Sometimes too many annotations can be confusing.   To hide annotations on the layout, click the Hide annotations button at the lower-right bottom of the panel. To show the annotations click the button again.    3. How can I filter comments by reviewers?   The filter option is

Hi everyone! I’m working on a long InDesign document and need help with managing the table of contents. Is there a way to automate TOC updates so that when I add or rearrange pages, it refreshes automatically instead of me having to manually rebuild it each time? Any tips or best practices?

Hello Indesign Community,we are preparing a fine art print for a client.Our pictures are grey/8bit converted RGB.In photoshop (and on our Canon Imageprograf printer) blacks are great.But in indesign pictures flatten out to grey. No real blacks. Also in exported PDF.We tried different color profiles. No success. The printing company says, there is no black in the file, but when we open the linked files in PS everything is great.preview in Indesign vs. Photoshop. Any experience with that problem? Would be a great help!Oh, we just print the K channel for fine art. So no rich black discussion, please 🙂 Oliver  

Bonjour, Lorsque je souhaite ouvrir un document InDesign sur l'application InDesign, j'ai ce message d'erreur qui apparaît :j'ai essayé de descendre de version, sans changement. Je suis sous Windows 11 Professionnel. 

Hi there,I've been trying to export a PDF magazine as spreads from an INDB file (InDesign Book including multiple INDD files).The problem is: if a file ends on an even page (left page), the next file begins on an odd page (right page), but InDesign seems incapable of exporting both pages as a single spread. Instead, ID exports the last page from the first file as a single page, then the first page of the other file as another single page. The last pages are correctly merged in a spread.The first file has an even number of pages: it ends on an even page (left page). The exported PDF: the second page (last page from the first INDD file) gets exported as a single page, as well as the third page (wihch is the first page of the second file). Pages 4 & 5, on the other hand, are exported as a spread, as expected.  Now since spreads are considered "single" pages by Adobe Acrobat, it doesn't seem possible – as far as I know – to re-organize the PDF file pages a

While I am starting to feel that I really understand how to work in ID (maybe i am dillusioned?), of course with the gracious help of the members of this awesome community, there is a problem that keeps recurring again and again. And i feel so helpless because i just cannot undertand what is causing it:Many times at the bottom of a text frame there is a large white space (sometimes at the beginning). There is pleanty of room for more lines of text to fit in and from the next threaded text frame and in the next frame there are just a few lines in that paragraph. SO why is it breaking and throwing too much to the next frame? This is what I have tried:1. Turned off all keep options.2. Inspected hidden break charachtres etc.3. Checked all paragraph options like space before and after etc.4. Everything I can think of And I still cannot ace it. I would invest a lot of money for an add-on that whenever the text doesn't fill to the end of the text frame it says:"The reason this

When using  if (!confirm('Please confirm!'),Only A1(); and A2(); require confirmation.A3() no need confirm.Do I need to move  A3();  outside of  main();? function main(){ if (!confirm('Please confirm!')) return; A1(); A2(); A3(); } 

Bonjour,  Lorsque je réalise ma table des matières sur un document (et pas sur un autre) les pointillés ne se mettent pas pour tous les items. Aurriez-vous une idée d'où vient le problème ? 

how to place multiple or single pdf to adoe inDesign via C++ SDK plugin. i cannot find the necssary API calls or documentation to achive this.

Is there an add-on that will help me handle styles better? Like highlighting all text with a certain style. Jumping from text w/certain style to next instance of text with that style etc. etc. I know how to do this manually but i would like to automate it.Thank youSF

I'm uploading an .epub file to IngramSpark and—on the surface—everything looks to be fine. However, I'm served with this error message (three times) from IS:(PKG-026): /META-INF/encryption.xml: Obfuscated resource must be a Font Core Media Type (was declared as "application/x-font-ttf" in "OEBPS/content.opf").I assume this is in relation to the 3x fonts I'm using in the .indd file – however, they are all Times New Roman (Regular, Italics and Bold styles) so there shouldn't be a licensing issue. They are .ttf files so I'm assuming that's the issue, but how do I go about rectifying that?

Is there a script that can set a specified hotkey as the default?

Hi, Dear Friends!   resolved. thank you. why can't the poster totally delete his post?   <Title renamed by MOD>

For example: Copy all files under‘..preSetting’ + ‘/bb/’toFolder.desktop + ‘/aa/’My path structure is as follows, with “Script” at the same level as preSetting:D:/OO/Script/myscript.jsxD:/OO/preSetting/bb/This one below seems wrong. //var activeDocPath = String(app.activeDocument.fullName); var copyToPath = String(Folder.desktop + '/aa/'); var sPath = String("/" + PreSetting + '/bb/'); //alert(sourcePath); //alert(pShortcut); var copiedFile = copyFile(sPath, copyToPath); function copyFile(sourcePath, destinationPath) { var fp = Folder(sourcePath) //get the files in MyFiles var f = fp.getFiles(); alert(f); alert(f.length); for (var i = 0; i < f.length; i++) { //try { if (!f[i].exists) { throw new Error('File not found: "' + sourcePath + '".'); } else { var dup = File(destinationPath); f[i].copy(dup) return dup; } } }  

Hi,We are signing our InDesign extensions using the ZXPSignCmd-64bit commandhttps://github.com/Adobe-CEP/CEP-Resources/blob/master/ZXPSignCMD/SigningTechNote_CC.pdf We have recently started using Digicert certificate and it appears the new signing requirements are as per the link EV Authenticode Signing using SignTool (digicert.com) I would like to know if there are any update to the instructions for signing InDesign extensions to align with the updated guidance from DigiCert Thanks

Hi , Can anyone help with this issues?I created a book in InDesign over a year ago. I am on a Mac computer with Big Sur 11.7.4 - It says on the adobe site that Indesign works with this software - but now I am being told Ihave to upgrade? I do not wnat to upgrade as I want Big Sur for specific features . So I cannot access my book from the InDesign app - It offered a "conversion" but I press that and it stays at 0? Is there anyway for me to get access? Thank you
