InDesign

I imported a pdf into InDesign. When I place an object with a shadow (or glow) over the pdf, the entire pdf becomes darker/heavier, and it prints that way. I checked the shadow and the spread, size, and distance were all very small. Why is this happening?

How to check if a character is a nonbreaking space in UXP?if (chars[chars.indexOf(char) - 1].contents === " ") { console.log("yes"); }I can't use \u00A0 or /~S/. The first one doesn't work, the second can't be used in .jsx UXP.

Hi there The Table of Contents in ePUBs only show up as half the width of the screen when exported. The lines wrap and they are clickable but do not take up the full width of the screen as they should. Can anyone advise on how to fix this please? Thanks!

Hi I've an issue about vertical alignment. I have a simple text inside a frame and another frame inside as you can see in the screen. How can I align in the center the text? Around the red line.  I tried different vertical alignment but all of they manage the whole block   ThanksFrancesco

Working on a very large book of 420 pages. i upgraded recently and now at some unknown reason text in a text box will clear spontaneously. Its happened about six times today. I am quite experienced and have no idea what or why.

I wonder how much time this bug has wasted. I noticed that when changing section-specific info in the Layout / Number & Section Options menu, sometimes it would produce totally unexpected results and screw up multiple sections and page layout. It turns out that this is because pages are inexplicably selected in the Pages tab, unrelated to where the insertion point resides. Sometimes two pages are selected at once in that pane, other times only one... but frequently the selected one(s) is wrong. I didn't select it, and it doesn't reflect the page on which I'm working. Further experimentation shows that it usually selects both pages of a spread, instead of the one you put the insertion point on. That is a major PITA; if you click on the right page thinking you're going to start a new section, InDesign will instead start the section with the left page, messing things up. With the insertion point sitting in text, I expect any changes made to the section or chapter o

Hello everyone! I was wondering if there is any way of linking two o more text boxes so that when you write text in one of them it automatically changes in the other. I am not talking about threading for text overflow. I am also interested in doing the same with images. I am going to set a practical example: a have 50 posters that are meant to be almost the same, but they all have different logos. The text and background image is the same for all of them. I would like to change the text and image in one of them, and then InDesign would automatically update the rest. Is this possible? Any ideas?

Hi, When I export my InDesign document to Adobe Express, the bleed settings don’t carry over. Is there a setting I need to enable in InDesign to include the bleed? Or is this a limitation in how InDesign exports to Adobe Express? Thanks, RB

Hey everyone,I’m working on a project where I need to lay out all 200 chapters of a manhwa (Solo Leveling) in a clean and scrollable format. I’m using Adobe apps for the design side — mostly Illustrator and XD — and looking for layout inspiration or best practices for content-heavy pages.Anyone here done something similar with long-form content or comic/manga layouts?

I am using Indesign cc 2020. My "edit with" right click menu does not have Photoshop listed. I have to click "other" and then locate photoshop.exe everytime I want to edit my image in photoshop. What should I do so that photoshop is always listed in my "edit with" context menu?

Bonjour, J'ai un agenda hebdomadaire à réaliser.Sur la page de gauche se trouve les 7 jours de la semaine (du lundi au dimanche) avec des cases horaires pour chaque jour. J'ai créé un tableau pour placer mes éléments.J'ai besoin que soit injecté :- l'année- le mois (deux mois si la semaine est à cheval. exemple : "janvier / février")- les jours (lundi, mardi,…)- le numéro de chaque jour- le saint correspondant au jour.Sur la page de droite c'est des lignes pour la prise de notes et l'affichage du numéro de la semaine.Vous trouverez ci-joint mon gabarit. Comment faire pour que le script récupère automatiquement les bonnes informations (en ligne ?) et les injecte aux bons endroits ?L'idéal serait que le script soit compatible pour les années suivantes lors du renouvellement annuel de l'agenda.J'ai essayé en mettant des intitulé de script dans mes cases de tableau ou mes blocs texte mais ça ne fonctionne pas et le script crée des pages les unes à côté des autres sans doute car&n

I am unable to create a ordinal superscript character style in InDesign. In opening the create new character style there is no choice for a superscript in the panel. I’m using Bell MT true type font. Bringing in the superscripted ordinal from Word causes a paragraph style override as does using GREP in find/change. Any suggestions?

I need to install an older version of InDesign. As you can see in the screenshot, the "Previous Versions" option does not appear.

Hello!I've downloaded this template: Minimalist Magazine Layout - billede | Adobe Stock and am really glad for the design. But on the top of the head of almost every page, there stands 'Magazine' which I'd like to substitute with something else. BUT - I can't change it. I can't edit it. And I even can't delete it. I've been through my master-page, and there is nothing there. So is there anyone, that might be able to help me?Best regardsJacob

Hi,Just today InDesign crashed every time I select a table or portion of table and then do 'Edit, Copy'.  I've tried saving as .idml, trashing preference, different tables, different indesign files.  All to no avail.Any thoughts?InDesign CC 13.1 x64 on Windows 10

Obviously, I'm doing something wrong, or missing something. Windows 11, latest CC updates, trying to merge a .csv file with 306 names and addresses into a ID indd file as a merge. It's 2 columns, 17 pages worth on 6x9 pages. Any ideas where I'm wrong? 

I have a spread with a primary text flow on each page. They are connected (which we know, because InDesign does not allow primary flows on facing pages if they aren't). I have a one-page document (which, not surprisingly, starts on the right page). If I insert a page break and keep typing; or if I type a bunch of extra lines and then go up and insert a page break; or if I just add enough lines to overlow the page... InDesign isn't adding a new page. It's allowing it to be overset. Previously (including in the file I copied to start this one), InDesign added pages. Why would this suddenly cease to happen? All files are members of the same book, by the way.

My reg-ex fu is weak today: (I don't know what flavour of Regular Expression Indesign uses)I'm trying to find any lowercase laters that follow a colon. \:\s?[a-z]Works fine here But that finds nothing in my design document. Should match items in bold underlineBananas: thats and thatNote: Thisbut: not thatElephants: 1 or notAnnything:goes: Any ideas?  

Hallo liebe Community,  ich habe folgende Frage. Wenn ich in meinem Projekt im InDesign die Deckkraft bei Bildern oder Farbflächen verringere erhalte ich in den Bildern und Grafiken Linien die an einen Grundlinienraster erinnern. Beim PDF-Export verschwinden diese zwar aber im Projekt sind sie vorhanden. (Siehe Screenshot) Was sind das für Linien und wieso werden diese sichtbar wenn ich die Deckkraft verringere? Und wie kann man die Linien entfernen sodass die Bilder etc. sauber erscheinen?  Über Hilfe würde ich mich sehr freuen. Liebe GrüßeAlex 

For example, in the one below, I'm trying to find all the numbers at the end of the paragraph, and the numbers at the end of the article.(\d+(?=\r))|(\d+(?=\Z)) Individually it works, separately it fails.Is there a way to fix this?Is there a way that a character followed by null means it's at the very end. Must it be written as two sentences?Sometimes it's inconvenient.

Hi Team,I'm encountering an issue with InDesign's Find and Change All functionality that impacts text formatting.Scenario:I need to search for a specific pattern and apply replacements across the entire document. When I perform the replacements one by one, everything works perfectly, and the original formatting (such as bold and italics) is preserved. However, when I use Change All, it breaks the formatting and causes styled text to lose its appearance.Even in a simple scenario—where we are not modifying the content but just replacing the matched string with itself—the formatting still gets affected. Example:Find What: ([^~a\r\n]+)Change To: $0Before: After: Looking forward to your suggestions or a possible workaround to retain the formatting while using the Change All function. Thanks in Advance,Muthu Veerappan

Isn't that weird?
