InDesign

HI!! im looking to achieve the fill/highlight look u get from just selecting the text like image 1, but of course when I change the fill of the text box, it just makes a rectangle out of it (img 2) , is there any way to achieve this? Thanks a bunch!!pS: if there's not a way to make this i highly encourage adobe to put it on, i think it's rlly useful considering the modern trends in design xoxo  

InDesign is lagging after I run the latest update. It takes at least one minute to do any action and is very frustrating.  I noticed that if I change the view settings to Fast Display, it goes back to operating normal but I don't like working with that setting because I can't see the images while I am working on a document. But I thought this might give some extra information on what the issues might be. Anyone has any advices?  I am working on a MacBook Pro with 2,6 GHz Intel Core i7 6 core processor and a 16GB RAM and I never had those kind of issues with Indesign before.   

I'm trying to resize several images together on a page. I try to select more than one image frame by holding Shift, but it doesn't register. It simply deselects the previous image frame and selects the new one. If I try dragging from outside of the document's borders, it selects the image frames but also selects other frames I drag across. I thought perhaps it has something to do with the images each being anchored to different text, but I just tried importing a few images without anchors and still I can't use shift to select them all. Any ideas? I'm using 19.5.4 on Windows 10. Thank you.

The checkbox for hyphenate is not in the pragraph styles window. When I select the dropdown, it doesn't show "show options" . How do I get this back or has it moved? 

So basically I'm doing a layout for bible in malayalam. However, I'm stuck with it's headers. So basically, it should have Chapter Name - Chapter Number. (For eg: Mathew 3). But in some cases, where there are 2 chapter numbers or continuation of chapter from previous page with new chapter is where i met with problems. So, i'm using 2 master pages. In first master page, one with <Chapter Name> text variable & <Chapter Nu> for single chapter pages. For others, I'm using <Chapter Name> <Chapter Nu>-<Chapter Nu2>. Chapter Nu 2 is using last page running header feature and Chapter Nu is using first page Running header. I can make it work but when there is no clear visible chapter number in that page it doesn't detect and gives me Mathew 4-4 instead of Mathew 3-4. Please anyone help

I suddenly realized that manually setting the objectstyle of a group separately does not affect the original objectstyle of objects in the group.But I want to use objectstyles to control groups, and I found that the objectstyles in the group will change to the objectstyles of the group.Is there a way to achieve the effect of manual setting without affecting it?

I ran into a problem with InDesign when creating a package to send to a collaborator. Although the packaging process completed successfully, I noticed that some images were missing from the "Links" folder. Has anyone experienced this before or knows why certain linked images might not be included, even if the package was created without any error messages?

Hi! I’ve noticed that QR codes generated with some free online tools have stopped working after some time. Does anyone know if the QR codes created with InDesign’s built-in tool are permanent? Will they continue to work indefinitely?

Hey all 🙂 I'm creating a digital comic book in inDesign.  Does anyone have any information on how to create comic book word balloons for dialogue inside of inDesigne easily? I did see a process for it on YouTube but it was a number of steps.  I'm wondering if there's an easy way to do it or a template that someone has made?   

Things look cool before PDF export but when I view it many of the pages with master overrides have the paragraph styles changed to section headers or they lose some of the object stylings. When I open the ID file they have been changed in the file as well. I had the good sense to save as an idml before the export, after the first time this arose, and those appear to be unaffected.But how do I give my client a proof???? I know it's Friday and late, but I committed to working the weekend and hoping someone can help!Working with ID 2018, the last upgrade I could do on my 2011 Mac. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have a wine list menu in InDesign, and another person on our team wants to be able to add notes regarding inventory/stock, but obviously not print those notes for when we distribute to customers. Is there a way we can do that without having to have two versions? I thought about duplicating pages, and then hiding them, but I'm not sure how that would work. Or is there a way to create two copies, but the copy updates based on changes to the main file?

My enterprise InDesign app will not launch on my new computer. It is downloaded, and from the CC control panel it says Open. When I open, it goes launch  until it reaches "Calling Late Initializers" and then up pops a crash report window saying "AdobeInDesign(64bit)" has crashed. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both ID and Creative Cloud. I have checked the sync settings and there is nothing to sync (this is a new app for me.) I have rebooted the PC several times. Nothing works.

Hallo zusammen, ich habe ein Problem mit Broschüredruck. Beim Drucker wird „Adobe PDF“ nicht gezeigt, obwohl ich Adobe PDF installiert habe (siehe Sreenshot). Wenn ich die anderen Drucker wähle, schaut die Farbe der Druckdatei komisch aus.  Früher ging es noch, aber seit ein paar Tagen nicht mehr. Ich habe Indesign und Adobe Acrobat schon mehrmals desinstalliert und installiert habe.  

I shared a number of files for review from InDesign. The reviewer reviewd them and informed me. I am able to access two files and the comments successfully but while trying to access the link of one files I am getting error "Something Went Wrong, Go to files" error. What happens to the edits suggested by my client? Are they gone forever? I will be killed if that happens.

Sempre que abro um projeto, no indesign, para continuar um trabalho aparece o erro de fontes ausentes. Sempre preciso reiniciar o aplicativo várias vezes para ele identificar as fontes, que já possuo, que foram baixas via adobe fonts. Qualquer outra fonte adquirida por outros fornacedores funcionam perfeitamente bem. Somente as fonts do adobe aperecem esse erro. Já tentei muitas coisas, mas nada concerta esse erro. Obs: São projetos que estou trabalahdno a dias e sempre que fecho e abro novamente aparece o mesmo erro.
