InDesign

Hi All, i have a custom font made at GlyphterIt works fine for the most part in both InDesign and non-Adobe apps such as MS Word. Recently however i needed to make some changes to the glyphs in the glyph table and after updating the font in Windows 10, ensuring its correctly loaded and working correctly in MS apps, InDesign simply doesn't update the font. I can confirm the font works in InDesign, just the expected newly added glyphs are not displaying in InDesign. Instead InDesign has glyphs from a very old version of the same named custom font, indicating its using some kind of font cache and not the newly installed font in Win10. I am using the latest version of InDesign.I have already tried deleting system .DAT font caches found in the steps herebut still the problem persists. I have spoken with Adobe Support that are trying to tell me the issue is not an Adobe app issue (which it clearly is as i can verify the font works as expected in all No

I am working with the InDesign 15.0.1 and I am having trouble renaming Groups and Objects in my documents.  I have to click the Group/Object at least 5 times for the option to change the name appears.  It's extremely frustrating.  Is there a way to fix that?  Or a way to create a keyboard shortcut? Thanks!

I have a piece of text. It has footnotes, but the footnotes are not properly linked to the main text.In other words, the footnotes and the main text are separate.They may be in the same text box, though.Perhaps I need to select a uniform footnote format. Now I need to link the footnotes to the main text.I can only enter footnotes manually. Can this be done automatically with a script?

Buenos días!Estoy teniendo problemas al importar en PDF interactivo con las transiciones de página que no las hace. Estoy con la versión v20.41, actualizado hace 6 días, con un MacBook Pro, con macOS Sequoia version 15.5.Alguien me puede echa una mano.Gracias de antemano!!!

Hi @rob day What a coincidence! I actually found this. I know you've done a lot of research in this area.Here it is:https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/resize-image-script/m-p/14141572#M544801 The original post you replied to already equi-scaled fits the layout(typearea?).Could you add a version that Image equi-scaled fit to the column width? When fit to  typearea, align X and Y to the upper left corner.When fit to column width, align X to the left and leave Y unchanged. Please forgive me for posting this separately, as I would like to add some new information.For example, determining whether the current selection is a text box or an image.Thank you very much. However, I found that the original post was not scaled.Its width fits the layout, and the frame fits the content. Actually, the cropped content should not be released.But it doesn't matter, as it is irrelevant to the initial layout.At least there is hope.

Hi all,I have recently came across an annoying error. I have somehow switched on a setting which alters the "Shift + X" setting in my Indesign. When typying and pressing "x" nothing appears but my text fill automatically switches to red. the rest of the letters continue as normal. When pressing "Shift + X" I am able to type in capital "X" letter.It is almost as if the shortcuts themselves have been swopped? Not sure how I have accidentally switched this on. Thank you in advance.  

Imagina que tienes un bloque de código HTML muy largo que ocupa varias páginas en InDesign. Cada vez que el texto “salta” de una página a la siguiente, quieres que aparezcan dos palabritas mágicas:← Continuación del código anterior al final de la página que se quedó “colgada”El código continúa en la página siguiente → al principio de la página nuevaPara lograrlo con un script en JavaScript (ExtendScript) para InDesign:Limpiar primero cualquier etiqueta vieja (por si ya habías corrido el script antes).Recorrer cada historia de texto y cada par de párrafos consecutivos.Detectar cuándo esos dos párrafos están en páginas distintas.Insertar justo después del último carácter de la primera página el textocssCopiarEditar← Continuación del código anterior(con un retorno para separarlo).Insertar justo antes del primer carácter de la siguiente página el textocssCopiarEditarEl código continúa en la página siguiente →Aplicar a cada uno su estilo de párrafo (“Etiquetacontinuacion” y “Etiquetacontinu

Folgendes Problem:Ich habe in InDesign ein Projekt mit ca. 130 Seiten. Über die Musterseite habe ich im Nachhinein Seitenzahlen hinzugefügt, welche ich nicht in den Vordergrund bekomme, da ich auf einigen Seiten Dokumente über die ganze Seite gezogen habe. Im Internet wird überall geschrieben, dass ich die Ebene in den Vordergrund packen muss, allerdings wird mir die Textebene der Musterseite nicht bei den Ebenen der individuellen Seiten angezeigt. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, die Musterseite permanent auf allen Seiten in den Vordergrund zu stellen? Oder finde ich auf jeder Seite die Textebene der Musterseite, in welcher die Seitenzahl ist?Vielleicht stehe ich gerade nur auf dem Schlauch, aber ich finde den Fehler momentan nicht!

I have a document set up to print as a booklet with 5.5x8.5 pages on a spread. It looks fine in preview but the .ps file has the wrong page orientation. I've attached the Summary txt from Print Booklet.  

Hi all, I'm trying to make a professional artistic cv using InDesign and it's not working. I have tried the oldest version available 19.0, as well as the 2024, and 2025 versions of the app and the same problem persists with all of them. A couple of seconds after launching an action, it buffers and invites me to force quit the app. I have also tried resetting the app. No other Adobe app has similar issues and I'm confused why InDesign would differ? 

Hello. I'm creating rack cards in multiple languages. One of the languages is Farsi. I can't seem to get Farsi working in InDesign. I also don't see Farsi or Persian in the Language drop-down. Help please.

I have a customer who wants the Dynamic Text feature available in PS & AI, where the words are resized to fill the space. They want each chapter to start with a title page with dynamic text and on most of the book sections. I thought it would be easy so priced it that way. Am I just not seeing it? see example. 

Hi,   I have set up a document with parent pages.  Before, I was able to see the parent pages A-C on top of the document pages in the panel, so I could edit them. Now, the parent pages have disappeared but they are still applied to the pages. So I cannot edit the parent pages as I don't know how to access them. In the panel options, parent thumbnails are activated. I don't know why the disappared. How can I get them back or how can edit the parent pages without seeing their thumbnails?   Thanks     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi, Dear Friends!I want to apply a paragraph style and clear all character formatting using a single keyboard shortcut. ChatGPT said it could not be done and suggested run a script to clear (and attach that to a SC) and then apply the style. but it is not working goodThank you, and have a good day!Susan Flamingo

I'm using InDesign CC 2018, and as I work between pages, scroll or zoom-in/out, screen distortions appear on the page. A sample image is attached.In this example, the grey in the bottom right-half of the document isn't supposed to be there. It appears to be an artefact from the background. Changing pages or scrolling more will typically make the issue move to a different part of the page or disappear.Any suggestions?

I have a multipage document with many .598 strokes/rules. I want to change them all to .5. I tried using Find/Change Object but keep getting a "Cannot find match" message.I tried it with a full description of the strokes (color, type, weight, etc.), and then with just narrowing it down to the stroke weight. Nothing is locked or in alternate layers. The attached screen shots show my current attempt. Any thoughts as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks,Laura

Hi,I should use InDesign on both a Mac with Intel processor and the Monterey operating system, and a Mac with M4 processor and the Sequoia operating system.Is there a version of ID working on both? Or, may I use different versions of ID on the two machines?Thanx! 

I'm designing a book and can not share screenshots of the specific images but InDesign is repeatedly moving just two specific images to the right about a quarter of an inch. Both images are on the left hand page, and align-right with the gutter/page edge. I have never experienced this before and I've been designing books for over 15 years with InDesign. I place them, save the document, and then later when scrolling past, I see they have moved again. I've resaved the images as new files and replaced them, and those same images move to the right again. I noted the X value for the placement of the image, and it still says the same value in the wrong and correct placement, which is insane.  Unrelated or maybe related, there are often visual glitches in InDesign that only started happening in the last few versions. Weird that the software has gotten more buggy and worse. These occur when switching between preview views using the W key. I know this is not going to be resolved throu

In Illustrator, I'm able to increase/decrease text size, opacity, leading, tracking, etc. in increments of 10, 1 and even 0,1 by pressing ctrl or shift and using the mouse wheel. However I can't seem to find a way to do this in Indesign, so I have to manually put the number in the box, making it time consuming. 

Hi! I have an unfilled rectangle with a dashed line border (3 and 2). I actually have several of them, all with a stroke weight of 1, but some of them are disappearing in the pdf after I export (even though I can see them in indesign). all of the ones that are disappearing also are showing these lines next to 0 pt and 1pt that I can't figure out how to change? Haven't been able to find the right keywords to figure out a solution online. I'm not sure what I did to set it up this way? Thank you!

I've already set my Basic Paragragh style from Minion Pro to my preferred font (by selecting my preferred font — with no document open — in the Character window and by modifying my Basic Paragraph style in the Paragraph Style window). This works great for opening new documents. My problem is this: How can I change the default replacement font when I accessthe Find/Replace Font option in InDesign? It always comes up as Minion Pro. I'm using InDesign 20.4.1 on a Mac running OS 15.5.

I have several images in my document. My document width is 80mm. I have lots of images to be placed. I have created an object style which resizes the image frame to 80mm and fit the content proportionally.Issue is that there is no option in object style to resize it proportionally height wise. Is there any script which takes the dimensions of the image and then size is widthwise to 80mm and changes its height proportionally ? Thanks

Use script,How to get the current layout column spacing width?and the column spacing width of the text box? 

Hi all, my problem is either that InDesign opens and then stalls on the Calling Late Initialisers page showing the pinwheel of doom or it opens as it normally should (but takes an age to do it), and then allows me to do a single activity on a document, and then also showing the pinwheel of doom. How do I resolve this? I've been trying to use InDesign for a while and thought the new update might work better. My Mac has the latest OS- Sequoia 15.5, is an M2 Pro chip, and should work based on these specs according to the Adobe Creative Cloud Installer. I also tried the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner earlier today but this still remains a problem.
