InDesign

Hola;Desde hace unos días, InDesign va muy, muy lento. Piensa hasta cuando copio una imagen. No es problema de RAM o de procesador, ya que tengo de sobra. Es posible que no funcione correctamente desde que llegó macOSCatalina? Un saludo y gracias

I am working on an article that includes Sanskrit text. I have tried two different Adobe Sanskrit fonts (Two Devanagari Sanskrit and Tiro Devangari Sanskrit). I have flowed the text from Word and converted the fonts. I have copied the text from a Plain Text document , pasted it in place, and converted the fonts. According to the widow of the author, in all these cases, the text becomes garbled and unreadable. Must I use a Unicode font instead? Why aren't the Adobe fonts simply converting the characters as they should? I hope others have had and solved this problem.   <Title renamed by MOD>  

All the examples I can find show how to find a table when you're already in one. But I need to be able to find the next table before or after the insertion point, even if it's sitting in regular text. Presumably I need to find the absolute index of the start (and end, maybe) of the table in the story and compare it to that of the insertion point, but something like the following doesn't seem to give an index in the entire story:     var tables = story.tables;    var nextTable;    for (currTable = 0; currTable < tables.length; currTable++)    {        alert("currTable index: " + tables[currTable].cells[0].insertionPoints[0].index);        if (tables[currTable].cells[0].insertionPoints[0].index > app.selection[0].index)        {            nextTable = tables[currTable];            alert("Table found.");  &nbsp

My goal is to translate the original file (.indd) from English to Japanese. My Python code successfully translates the text and updates the fonts and language. However, I am encountering an issue where the translated text overflows the text frames (i.e., overset text).Please advise if there’s any setting or attribute within the .idml file that can be updated using python code to automatically resize the text frame to fit the content.Both original InDesign (.idml) and the Python-processed .idml file are attached for your reference.

The style exists, and if I examine it with .name ==, it matches. But getByName does not. In the code below, it's getByName that's throwing an exception, but the part that raises the "style found" alert works: function styleTable(theTable){    var tableStyleName = "Section heading";    theTable.cells.everyItem().clearCellStyleOverrides(true);    for(i = 0; i < app.activeDocument.tableStyles.length; i++)    {        if(app.activeDocument.tableStyles[i].name == tableStyleName)        {            alert("Style found");        }    }    try    {        var tableStyle = app.activeDocument.tableStyles.getByName(tableStyleName);        theTable.appliedTableStyle = tableStyle;    }    catch(err)    {        alert("Table style " + tableS

I am at a total loss, I have created my design in InDesign, exported to PDF - looks perfect.Then when I come to print, it is printing black lines across the page which are in the same locations as some of my box outlines. I have tried exporting to png and printing and it is printing the lines in the exact same place. The most prominent line being around the rope image which has a transparent backgroundI have adjusted Transparency Flattening to High, I am exporting to PDF/X-4 as I have seen other people suggesting this. I have cleaned the print heads on my printer just in case. (it's a brand new inkjet printer) I am stuck now. I am really new to InDesign. Please help!

I've tried restarting InDesign, my computer, but the problem persists. I double-click a text box to select it, then try dragging and clicking to select some text, and instead of selecting the text it drags and moves the whole box.  The text, IS still text and has not been converted to curves.I also can not resize a text box by clicking the corner handles.. trying to click and drag those resized the WHOLE BOX PROPORTIONALLY.   So if I click a text frame to make it a bit taller (by clicking the middle bottom handle, the whole box resizes with the content. It's NOT a stuck modified key.  No other programs are experiencing this weird behaviour.The text is most definitely not converted to shapes/curves. VIDEO ATTACHED.   

I am having a problem with numbering. As there are multiple sets of numbers I have set the first number to start at 1 and set the rest of that group of numbers to be continuous. So far so good. BUT when I have a subset of numbering within that it all goes wrong. If you look at my example below (1), (2) and (3) are fine. I then have (a), (b), (c), (d) under point (3). They have come out fine using the same principle. HOWEVER when I try and continue the number list (using continuous) it comes out as 5 because it thinks it is following on from (a), (b), (c), (d). How do I get it to follow on from the numbers and not the letters? I have set up paragrap styles and (5) and (6) in the example below are the same paragraph setting as (2) & (3). Is the only way to resolve this by clicking on (5) and going to bullets and numbering and asking it to start at (4)? (1)     ensuring that the parties are on an equal footing;(2)     saving expense;(3)     deal

Hi! I started working with a team and I have seen some unusual highlighting in indesign texts eversince. I'm aware of the highlighting that shows change in tracking, which is a darker green, but I can't say where this one  is coming from. Please, does anyone have a clue about what it is and how to control it?

Generating an ePub file with InDesign 2025 that contains footnotes, and subsequently passing through ePub-Checker, Google Play, or Apple Books multiples errors with footnotes:• OEBPS/9781788946391.Xhtml:237, 664: Error while parsing file: attribute "target" not allowed here; expected attributeIf the same file is opened using ID 2024, there are no errors.I've created a very simple file with little text and one reference/footnote using ID 2025.

I am using InDesign 2021 & 2022. It is constantly "Not responding" using both versions. I can't get anything done. This has been going on for months. Since purchasing this iMac with the M1 chip. Actually I've been experiencing issues with InDesign since before this new iMac was purchased. I purchased it to try and stop the issues thinking it was the older Mac I had that was causing the problems. But that seems not to be the case.I open InDesign and then try to open a magazine file and it immedietly hangs up. Every click causes the spinning wheel to appear and then I get the "application not responding" message. I've restarted 3 times this moring and it is still happening. I really am hating Adobe right now. 

I feel as if it exists.Or maybe there could be a snap button?But Alt+↓ Ctrl+↓ does have some special features.

Seit dem letzten Update von Indesign + Illustrator  + Mac OS X (alle 3 sind aktuell) funktioniert der Vektor-Transfer (Copy & Paste) von Illustrator zu Indesign nicht mehr. Bei den Zwischenablage-Optionen in InDesign kann ich zwar einstellen, dass PDF bevorzugt werden soll, dann sind die Pfade des Objekts aber nicht mehr editierbar. Bei den Zwischenablage-Optionen in Illustrator habe ich alle Optionen ausprobiert, hat nichts gebracht. Info: der Import von Vektoren in Photoshop aus Illustrator funktioniert noch nach wie vor, also gehe ich davon aus, dass der Bug hier bei inDesign liegt. Auch aus Photoshop heraus können keine Pfade nach InDesign kopiert werden. Hier kommt ein EPS - Fehler.

recently my indesign 2025 (20.3.1) crashes more than usual. I'm running macOS Sonoma 14.7.6 (23H626) on Apple M1 Max 32gb ram.Is there any benefit in upgrading to macOS Sequoia?Could the benefits be offset by issues with other Adobe applications?   thx     <Title renamed by MOD>

I try to place TIFF images rendered from Blender and get the error "Error encountered while reading TIFF image. Image may be damaged or incompatible."While this was no problem at all in all previous versions of Indesign (2022, 2021, …) version 2023 can't handle them anymore. Also opening files previously created with version 2022 containing those tiff's can be openend, however, I get errors trying to make pdf's and they show grey.Open them and resave in photoshop, without changing any settings, solves this issue, however, I have hundreds Indesign files containing much of those files. The TIFF's are saved with zip compression, since all others (LZW, No compression) gives me images where the transparency is shown black, so no option for me. In the future I can use other file formats for my render, but I would like to continue use my old TIFF's.I attached 1 example image.     <Title renamed by MOD>

Indesign moves down text in exported PDF files.Please see screenshot attached.Numbers and weekdays (mo, di, mi, do) are inseparate text frames and different layers.Indesign 16.4 on iMac with Catalina. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm trying to paste a large body of text into a series of connected text boxes, but half way through the copied text, it stops showing up. This is usually mid text box with more connected after the text stops. How can I fix this?

Hey, I am struggling to get my placed incopy file to update in indesign. I have tried restarting, updating, quitting. I have attached screenshots. The text box in Indesign shows a pencil with a line through. I have no locked objects or layers.Any ideas?

Hello there, first post to this communtity. I feel that it is long overdue and I'd like to publish my firt E-photo-book. I have installed a trial version of InDesign. I am a total novice and not quite sure where to start and a Google search etc just throws up so much info it's enough to make my brain explode. At a glance I'm thinking I need to be making EPUB format. But where to start with sizing, best resolution etc. I welcome your comments. Thank you! Karl.

Greetings!  I'm using InDesign 20.0.1 on a Windows 11 desktop.  I am intermittently having issues with text disappearing from text frames.  There are no other objects on the page, just one text frame.  The text appears as I type it, but when I deselect the frame the text disappears.  I have checked that the Character and Paragraph Styles are set to None.  Screen mode is Normal, Display Performance is Typical Display.  This happens with "regular" Adobe fonts such as Arial, Minion Pro, Century Gothic, etc (no third-party fonts).  Changing Stroke/Fill doesn't affect this.  Thanx,Jay

20.3   Three of us same issue, clicking between tabs/doc and the programme appears to freeze but will *eventually* goto the other tab.   All on windows 11, this problem did not exist before this version. Also for one team member opening the app the interface is massive, if she minimises the window it then fixes itself.   Would be great if Adobe could fix please.     <Title renamed by MOD>

I publish 6 monthly magazines and have been using InDesign since 2013.Just had the worst three days of production ever... essential part of our business is cut and pasting common topic pages from one magazine to syndicate them in others. I have lost count of the number of times ( I run PC's with Windows 11) I have had to use Task Manager to force shut In Design as simply cutting and pasting hangs the lot.  Found some stuff on the Adobe help site but it keeps referring to SING Components and seems to be for Windows XP and Vista. I am on Version 20.3.1x64. Any ideas?

Hello,I'm working on a book, and I need to find out how many footnotes I have. I hate to go through and count them all manually. Is there a place I can go to see how many footnotes the document has?

I recently upgraded to InDesign 2025 from 2024, Now I am having a glitch with anchored inline objects (icons for products in a catalog).After using Publish Online, all the inline anchored objects have moved to the right by a few milimeters, and now overlap the text they are inline with. The files where orginally created in 2024 InDesign.  The anchored objects are properly placed in the file, the glitch only appears on the uploaded published file.I cannot use text box anchoring. It is not at all practle for my needs. The icons needs to be inline with the product title, and move accordinally if the text changes.In Indesign: Published document:
