Hopefully one day the positioning object will have a wrap-around effect on the text above it This issue is too bad.It would be so nice to locate objects without this problem.This one turns down, picks up, do you have a better way to control it? 

I have placed a rectangular image to fall between two columns of wrappiing text. The text will not wrap. The object has been brought to the front. The screen shot attached shows the page and the text wrap box.It  is on the last page of "Sanskrit Article," attached.

I have a project with multiple ICML files (generated via Pandoc, plus some additional scripting), with internal hyperlink references between files—so one file might define an anchor like:<ParagraphStyleRange AppliedParagraphStyle="ParagraphStyle/Header2"> <CharacterStyleRange AppliedCharacterStyle="$ID/NormalCharacterStyle"> <HyperlinkTextDestination Self="HyperlinkTextDestination/#substrates" Name="#substrates" DestinationUniqueKey="2394463933"/> <Content>Substrates</Content> </CharacterStyleRange> </ParagraphStyleRange>and another file reference it like: <HyperlinkTextSource Self="htss-16" Name="#substrates" Hidden="false"> <CharacterStyleRange AppliedCharacterStyle="CharacterStyle/Link"> <Content>Substrates</Content> </CharacterStyleRange> </HyperlinkTextSource> <!-- ... --> <Hyperlink Self="uf-16" Name="#substrates" Source="htss-16" Visible="false" DestinationUn

I have a project from one of our client in which source InDesign files are XML tagged. Challenge is that as per the localization/translation process when we convert these XML tagged InDesign (INDD) files into IDML format for our localization use, those IDML files are not opening in InDesign CC 2018 or any other CC version and resulting the InDesign application to getting crashed. Can anyone kindly check if similar issue was faced by anyone and if there is a solution to convert these INDD files to IDML and open these IDML retaining the XML tagging even after the localization process? Thanks.

Bonjour à tous, En tant que graphiste et directeur artistique avec presque 10 ans d’expérience dans le domaine, je tiens à partager ma frustration face à la dernière version d’InDesign (CC 2025). Depuis son installation, je rencontre une lenteur insupportable dans toutes les actions, que ce soit sur des projets complexes (livres avec de nombreux styles, gabarits et fichiers TIFF lourds) ou même sur des fichiers simples et neufs. Chaque clic ou déplacement semble prendre une éternité. En plus de ça, les polices d’Adobe Fonts refusent de se synchroniser correctement : le téléchargement reste bloqué en permanence, ce qui complique énormément mon flux de travail. Pour ne rien arranger, plusieurs imprimeurs et éditeurs avec qui je collabore m’ont conseillé d’éviter cette version et de continuer à utiliser InDesign 2024, ce qui en dit long sur la confiance qu’inspire cette mise à jour. Je suis surpris qu’un outil professionnel, vendu à un tarif aussi élevé, puisse présenter autant de problèm

Greetings!  I have read over many of the posts in this thread, but none are quite the same as mine.  I have a document with seven pages besides the TOC page.  There are separate text frames on each page being used as headers and subheaders.  They are formatted with Paragraph Styles.  All the entries show up in my TOC but in the wrong order:  page 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.  I originally built the page with five content pages, then duplicated spread at end of document on two of the original pages to create pages 6 and 7.  The pages appear in the correct order in my doc and the page numbers (from Parent page) are correct.Thanx,Jay

Dear Team,We are working in InDesign CC 2017 on Mac OS-X, While deleting some box item in pages InDesign unexpectedly closes.

We are not able to recover after selecting Yes/No option.Could you please suggest any option to recover the InDesign file.Regards,Suresh

Unable to contact Adobe developers directly, but it's pretty poor that the word 'Portrait' is misspelt in the InDesign document set-up drop-down menu...maybe it's an American thing? 

I'm trying to edit the bullet point distance from the first word of the Sentence.I tried the following:Opened Paragraph StylesClick the top right corner dropdown and chose Style OptionsClick on Bullets and NumberingI Chose Bullets from the List Type dropdownI changed the Tab Position to 5mm as a testThis worked, but..........When I clicked on ok to close the Style options, every sentence in the document became a bullet list.Every time I create a new sentence ina new Text box it is automatically converted to a bullet pointIf I go back in and undo the Style then I lose all Bullet lists.I am obviously doing the wrong thing.I simply want to change the distance between the Bullet point and the Sentence by half, so that if I create a bullet list it will be a shorter distance. Similar to the above list!Thanks

Seit dem neusten Update habe ich folgendes Phänomen: Ich möchte mit gedrückter Maustaste mehrere Objekte auswählen. Sobald ich die Taste drücke, verschwindet alles hinter einer weißen Fläche. So ist es unmöglich, mehrere Objekte durch ziehen auszuwählen! Extrem störend. Was kann ich tun?

In my InDesign document I have equations as images, in accessibility pdf it as tagged as <Figure> automatically, I need to tag it as <Formula>, how can I do it from InDesign through InDesign scripting

Hi, I'm trying to make a script where it will take highlighted text, make it into a hyperlink, format it with a character style and make the destination a page within the document, specifically the number that is the highlighted text. The usecase is an index - so I highlight 151, for example, and the script applies the character style "Hyperlink" and makes the text a hyperlink to page 151. Below is what I have so far but I'm tweaking a script I found elsewhere (source below) and I'm really struggling. I'm afraid this is not a particular strength of mine. If anyone fancies digging into it and seeing if they can make it work, I'd be very grateful! Thanks, Eubhal Script: Main();// If you want the script to be un-doable, comment out the line above, and remove the comment from the line below// app.doScript(Main, undefined, undefined, UndoModes.ENTIRE_SCRIPT,”Run Script”);function Main() {//This takes the text that you have highlighted on the pagevar myHighlightedTex

My Direct Selection tool is not moving individual anchor points from objects that I draw with the Pen Tool. It should function the same as Illustrator and allow you to select an anchor point and move the individual point. Is there a setting that I am missing somewhere for this?

Hi everyone,I want to create a script that finds all block texts in bold style and changes the format of the first letter of every word found in bold.My script is not working, and I don't have enough knowledge to correct it.Please could you help me: if (app.documents.length === 0) {alert("Nenhum documento está aberto!");} else {var doc = app.activeDocument;if (doc.stories.length === 0) {alert("O documento não contém nenhuma história de texto!");} else {for (var i = 0; i < doc.stories.length; i++) {var story = doc.stories[i];for (var j = 0; j < story.paragraphs.length; j++) {var para = story.paragraphs[j];for (var k = 0; k < para.words.length; k++) {var word = para.words[k];if (word.characters.length > 0 && word.characters[0].appliedFont.fontStyleName.toLowerCase().includes("heavy")) {word.characters[0].pointSize = 18;}}}}alert("Texto no estilo Heavy encontrado e ajustado!");}}

HelloI live in Greenland and need to use InDesign. But why can't I pay InDesign from Greenland? Lisathe Møller

My InDesign has gone EXTREMELY slow since the update to 18.2.1. I'm working on a Windows 11 laptop. Placing images works fine, but editing a simple text box, typing a word, any formatting takes several seconds to materialise. Typing a word in a text box will make the word appear letter by letter and each letter takes a few seconds to appear. It is unworkable and simply unacceptable for a paid-for product. The laptop's resources are not at their limits. I still have spare processor capacity and spare RAM when InDesign decides to think about every little edit, so that's not it. It never used to be anywhere near this slow, but I can't keep on working like this. Any ideas?   <Title renamed by moderator>

Salut, Pourquoi "Kashida", "digit" et "sens du texte" ne figure pas dans le panneau des options? Merci 

When working within a book, you can have it automatically insert blank pages if a chapter doesn't start on the type of page you specify. But I can't find where you specify which master page to use for the inserted blank page. Where is this?

First let me say sorry for long post and THANKS ALL. Hello all, I need some help please. I do variable mailings. In doing so we have a QC process where we change all the variable type from 100K to 100 magenta so clients can see the variables easier. I am looking for a script where I can call out a swatch color name (VARIABLES 100K) and change the current swatch CMYK values without changing the name, adding another swatch or changing any other swatch CMYK values. I have the script below that does change the color of all process colors. For some jobs this will work because there is only one-color swatch being used. var doc = app.activeDocument;var swatches = doc.swatches; for (var i = 0; i < swatches.length; i++) {  var swatch = swatches[i];  if (swatch.isValid && swatch.name != "[none]" && swatch.name != "[Black]" && swatch.name != "[Registration]" && swatch.name != "[Paper]") {      swatch.properties =
