InDesign

Heya,So I'm using a document, and when I align the text, a thick blue line will appear to the left of the text. The line will only disappear if the text is left-aligned. I would like to get rid of the line, but I'm not sure how.

I have dynamic spelling and autocorrect checkboxes checked under: EDIT> SPELLING> I have gone into EDIT> PREFERENCES> SPELLING> and checked all check boxes under Find and Enable Dynamic Spelling. Also EDIT> PREFERENCES> AUTOCORRECT I have enabled Autocorrect and selected my Language as English:UK.My only concern is that under EDIT> PREFERENCES> DICTIONARY where I have nominated English: UK  the link is pointing nowhere. I've been searching for over an hour now, and really need some help. I can't continue with this project until I can get the Autocorrect and Dynamic spelling functioning.Any suggestions? Thank you!! 

Hello Community, I was wonderign if somebody could elaborate on the difference between InDesign and InDesign Pro, and I can't seem to find anything on it. This would be for Teams or Enterprise, not individual.

I no longer get a prompt when I delete a page: there is content within the page?It seems one day, I pressed the Alt key and then clicked the delete button, and I won't be prompted later.Where do I recover it?

Hi everyone, I recently upgraded from a MacBook Pro M2 Max to the new MacBook Pro M4 and installed all the latest software updates. While everything worked perfectly on my previous device, I’ve encountered an issue with InDesign (version 20.0.1) on the new MacBook. Whenever I select an object (e.g., text, frames, etc.) to edit it, the object shifts slightly. This behavior only occurs on the new MacBook Pro M4 and not on my previous device, even though both are running the same version of InDesign and software. Additionally, Sequoia 15.1.1 is installed on my system, but it has never caused issues in the past. Has anyone else experienced this issue, or is this a known bug? Are there any solutions or workarounds to address this problem? Thank you in advance for your help!

While making a final proof of my book, I encountered a big problem using Indesign Spell Check. It highlighted a word ("throughout"), and I clicked on the highlighted word to insert a hyphen. After pressing the hyphen key, Indesign removed all the text in my document from that point on. A total of 40 chapters vanished in a few seconds. The pages are still visible and even contain the running header and page numbers. Text threading shows no problems, and there are no indications of there being any overset text. Only the last page is still visible. I immediately attempted to use Edit > Undo, but nothing changed. I closed out and exited Indesign and then restarted it. No changes. I tried to find an earlier backup version on my laptop and on the cloud but have been unsuccessful. Has anyone experienced this problem before and found a solution?

Hi, When exporting to an ebook I get this error in Calibre when checking the file. Page Anchor not found : 2Page Anchor in "C:\Users\user\Dropbox\STORY \BOOK Almost a star" is missing: 2 After researching, I have tried many things to correct it however nothing seems to move it. I did see in viewing the ebook, there is no seperation between page 2 and 3 and this continues through  the 210 pagesand I am nt sure how to for a page end and new page start.  All pages look fine in the orig InD and in the exported PDF file. I will mention the last item in Page 2 is an image, no text follows until the next page. Any suggestions here please?  oz 

how can I put in a note by specific text in indesign just for the editers and that can be printed as well?     <Title renamed by MOD>

When using Illustrator and applying gradients, it's easy to adjust the gradient using the 'Gradient Annotator' that pops up over the graphic - like in this image:Is is possible to show a Gradient Annotator in Indesign as well, or is this feature only available in Illustrator?

This seems to be a bug. I've had this happen a few times. Uninstalling and re-installing fixes it for a while. Any solutions?

why isn't the spacing-  spacing properly??

Estoy exportandote un archivo que me advierte: " 1) The preset specifies that some fonts are not embedded. This application always embeds " ¿Esto qué significa, cuáles repercusiones tiene y cómo se arregla? Gracias.  

Indesgin crushes while opening files. It is not "a" file. Randomly some files. ı cannot figure out what is the problem. I was working with those files over a year witout a problem.

I have a 12-page document, divided into three booklets, every parameter set correctly and everything. The preview in Booklet Print is EXACTLY what I need, perfectly re-organized for printing, but when exporting to PDF and reviewing this document the spreads are mismatched from the original booklet structure. Should be 12-1, 2-11, 10-3, etc, and suddenly the final PDF has the end cover on the second booklet, the third page on the 8th, etc.Why is this happening? 

Is it possible to move mutliple pages in InDesign scripting with a single move call or do you need to move one page at a time?

Hello,I'm fairly new to InDesign and would appreciate some assistance. I've been attempting to write a script for the past few days.Let's say I have 5 unsaved documents open. What I'd like to achieve is to select a certain number of documents (for example, 2 documents, which may have varying numbers of pages but are of the same size), and merge them into one document. This merged document can either replace one of the original two or be created as a new document. (Additional information: the document size is landscape 297 x 210 mm with 5 mm margins and no facing pages).However, the documents that were merged would need to be closed without being saved.If my expectations are too high, I apologize.Thank you for your assistance!

Hola buenos díasTengo una caja de texto de tamaño fijo, y tengo que ir introduciendo difrentes textos, me gustaria que el texto tubiera una tamaño inicial de por ejemplo 20/22 pt y a medida que el texto se desborde fuera de caja, se vaya reduciendo el tamaño del texto automàticamente dependiendo de lo largo que sea ese texto.Me explico un poco.El ejemplo es para unos carteles de productos individuales, y la descripción varia mucho de unos a otros, en unos quizas simplemente pone PAN (imagen inicip.png), y en otros LAVAVAJILLAS ULTRACONCENTRADO PERFUME MARINO, y la caja de texto donde van a ir tiene sempre el mismo tamaño, me gustaria que PAN o descripciones similares (en número de caracteres) aparezcan a un cuerpo X pt y a medida que se amplien los caracteres de la descripción se vaya reduciendo el texto para que se desborde fuera de caja. Vaya que no quede como la imagen problema.png, y quede como resultado.pngAlguna idea?Muchas gracias por vuestro tiempo!

I've run into this problem before, but forget what caused it.Is there a ghost?It jumps out of nowhere. 

I'm stumped and have been trying for hours to fix this issue.I am exporting my Indesign file to a PDF/X-1a:2001 (Print) then importing it into KDP. It's telling me that I have a margin issue, but I'm not seeing it. This is what I'm seeing:KDP:InDesign: Settings:Save settings:Could it have something to do with 'facing pages?'HELP!!!

Trying to package an InDesign file, and fonts aren't going into Document folder. The fonts that won't go happen to also have been Type 1 fonts in the original product (this is an update of said product). They're still listed in the packaging as "embedded." I did replace all fonts with an updated font (Gotham family) in InDesign and in all Illustrator files coming in. I cleared caches (Adobe and Windows). I uninstalled and reinstalled the fonts (and InDesign). I've rebooted each time I've made a change and ensured all Adobe apps were closed for everything I tried. I can only get Gotham Medium to show up in the folder. It keeps saying that I have 4 "incomplete" fonts, which is why I think those Type 1 fonts are interfering, but I can't seem to get rid of them! (Went to Windows folder to get rid of them, and they aren't there, but they do show up in MS Office apps.) I've lost the whole day's work on this... Does anyone have any advice???

It seems like master pages are only good for storing elements; placing them in place in a document seems to cause a lot of problems. How does one avoid parent page items repeating when pages are added or removed? If I have an edited parent item on page 20, then remove page 18, the original item reappears on the new page 19. Or if I add pages before the occurence of the parent item, it will reappear. Folios often duplicate themselves, too. It seems as if a new master page is occurring, often "overprinting." As opposed to placing the master page initially from the master page menu, does dragging the master item from a library avoid this problem? Or copying and pasting in place the master items from the master page?  

I'm having trouble using Tamil fonts in ID CS3 (Win10). The glyphs get mixed up and an odd character is placed between the transposed characters, I suppose indicating that something unkind has happened to the ligature.  It's probably something to do with Unicode fonts (which I don't understand at all!). I'm using the Nirmala UI font.
