InDesign

No puedo compaginar mis trabajos debido a que me lo exporta como postscript y no como PDF, fui a todos los ajustes pero no tengo forma de solucionarlo. En la opción de <Archivo < Imprimir folleto <Configuración de la impresión < Impresora no me aparecen más opciones que el archivo postscript.  

Hello, I'm transitioning from working on my desktop to working on the cloud. I have uploaded all my assets to the CC Library, and organized them into folders. I've noticed I have many duplicates because I have both the photoshop file, and the png file, the latter I would use for placing in indesign. My goal is to relink my assets from my desktop, to their new home in the CC library, however I am finding this difficult. Each indesign template I've created has about 100-200 assets. I am noticing the following:-I cannot mass relink "search for missing links" in my CC library like I could from my desktop. Instead each asset needs to be found and linked manually.-the search function does not work when it relinking mode. I need to scroll and scroll through my assets to find the correct one. Am I doing this correctly? I can't imagine adobe pushing us to use the cloud (discontinuing sync) when their CC library is this unintuitive. Am I missing something?

I have posted a couple of pictures of something weird happening with my text box. It's like there is an object with a text wrap placed on it in the area, but there is nothing there. I've checked my master pages, I've checked there there are no locked objects, I have checked that my paragraph style ragged edge is unchecked... all to no avail. I have attached a couple of pictures to show what I mean. I have even deleted everything in this area, and dragged down a new iteration from the block before, and it does the same thing. Going a bit crazy. Anybody have any idea what might be going on here?

Bug. Tracciati di illustrator importati in ID risultano con fondo bianco invece che tracciato semplice o composto... è u bug o mi perdo qiulacosa. Prima non era così

I just noticed a pop-up in the update that states you can now edit PDFs within InDesign. I haven't been able to. edit anything What am I missing? I can't find anything in the menus. 

Hello all, and thank you for the help. I have searched and found a few similar posts but not the same request. I am pasting from an outside document that has formatting into indesign, and hope to retain the formatting but change the font family, size and color to my assigned Paragraph style. I have changed the clipboard handling to paste All Information. I have a paragraph style set up. I paste into the text box and it changes the size and color of the text, but does not change the font family. I will make sure that Character style is set to None on the imported text. Strangely enough if I click through different styles and back to my paragraph style it will (seemingly randomly) sometimes change the font family, but often only the first 2 paragraphs (after Hard line breaks), leaving the third with the original pasted font family. I can not seem to replicate  why this happens . Something must be overriding the font styling, but I can not seem to figure

In Text Frame Options, Baseline Options there's an option to align the First Baseline Offset to a selection of Ascent, Cap Height, x-height, etc.   Left at the default (Ascent), swapping through typefaces it's clear the offset doesn't align to the ascent. As I understand it, it's meant to be the lowercase 'd'. Though I haven't seen an explanation as to why it doesn't align.   It makes me wonder if it instead is aligned to the top of the Em square defined in the design of the typeface. Would anyone have any confirmation or evidence of this?     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hello everyone, We are a team of 12 graphic designers that all have the same problem. We are using InDesign to build files and we have links on a server reached using a VPN. We get major slowdowns when the VPN is connected and none when it isn't. The problem is that we have to use it, no choice there.  Anyone else have the same problem? Any workaround? Thanks!

Conoscete un Plug-In per InDesign che aiuti ad impaginare velocemente un catalogo - anche con un plugin a pagamento di terze parti - collegandolo ad un excel?  

One oy my team checks my work for grammar etc via a PDF. Currently she prints it(!) then marks it up, gives me a call. I open indesign and make fixes she explains to me over the phone. its time consuming. She has no indesign expereince what so ever, has no interest and I dont blame her! Is there any way to stream line this? Does anyone else have a different method. That is to say getting edits from PDF to indesign? She does not mind the idea of editing a PDF if we get her a licence. But it seems that still a lot of work for me to then have to go through it and apply it back to my indesign documents. Cheers

Anyone else have this issue when trying to export a PDF--The PDF export will not complete and is stuck in queued because InDesign is trying to activate a font that is already installed or added, and sometimes this font it is trying to add is not even from the open document?This happens to me often, and opening and closing InDesign helps but it is a pain to do all the time. Also, sometimes toggling off and back on Adobe fonts temporarily resolves the issue.

I've seen this question asked in other places but have not seen an answer. I'm running InDesign Release 2015.4. I have deleted some files from the development folder and they're still showing up in the Recent Files list. I've searched RegEdit and deleted them from there but they're still in the list when I launch InDesign. How can I remove them from the Recent Files list?Thank you.

I am new to InDesign.  Trying to print a tri-fold double sided and the reverse side is printing upside down. I think it is some settings I need to tweak but can't find an easy answer.  Can anyone give guidance?  

I have a document with a TOC that is setup to also export the bookmarks to PDF.  The issue I am having is the TOC is using the levels established by my paragraph styles correctly, but the bookmarks are not.For example:Here is the TOC for Chapter 2:Common Knowledge Check is a subsection and it is indented correctly under the Section Skill Basics.Now, here are the Bookmarks for Chapter 2:It has made the sections into subsections.  This is happening for every chapter. Basically, it is making all bookmark sin a chapter subordinate to the first bookmark of the chapter.  In the example above, it is making Skill Descriptions, Talent Basics and Talent Descriptions into subsection of Skill Basics. The styles are all working correctly because the TOC is correct.I have removed the bookmarks and re-added them and I have fixed them annually, but as soon as I update the TOC, it goes back to broken...

Designing publications for Kindle is becoming a larger and larger part of my workflow, and I now routinely do books for both print and Kindle as a matter of course.With 30 years of experience and using ID since at least CS2, I've worked out most of the process ot my own satisfaction and taste... but I know I am still fumbling around in many ways. Recently, in redoing a complex book from print to K, I had many issues and problems, and in trying to find answers, I came up somewhere between annoyed, shocked and appalled at how scattered the information on this topic is. The vast amount of information on Kindle publishing is amateurish  and incomplete: it's aimed at authors who need to get their Word file into Amazon's hands without much technical knowledge or skill. The vast amount of information on Kindle publishing for pros, and using InDesign, is not a great deal better, and the majority of it is greatly outdated. Nearly all of it is for novices, newcomers, first-timers,

Hi,Can someone tell me, why is a vector turning pixelated/hazy when placed on InDesign? 

This happens on Windows and Mac version.Occasionally I'll be working on a ID document and I make a change (move a line, duplicate on object etc) and the screen doesn't update with the change.I then force a redraw (zoom in or out, set page to fit etc), then the screen updates with that change.Latest ID on Mac 20.2Running on MacMiniM4 with latest OS.Although this also happens on a Windows 10 install, and a MacMiniM2Pro.It's been happening for a few versions now.Tried turning on and off GPU performance - no difference.

Acabo de formatear mi máquina e instalar todo desde cero, y la primera vez que abro ID, y cierro un archivo –nuevo, sólo de prueba con una caja con texto simulado– el programa se cierra por un "error...". Si el programa está siendo instalado en un sistema operativo limpio, y el programa está limpio, sin configuraciones de ningún tipo, ¿cómo es que esto sucede? Lo mismo pasaba con Sonoma, y al reportar el error, simplemente dice que no pudo encontrar ningúna solución. ¿ ... ? 

Greetings,I have a single P65 file from 1998 that I need to convert to some other current format--PDF or Word.How can I get that done?Thank you,Brett

Hi There,I am very new to Indesign. I have set spreads for a book in Indesign. In order to insert page numbers, I have added a blue box at bottom of Parent-A and Insert page number from Type>Insert Special Character>Markers>Current Page Number like below: Text frame options of page numbers have been set to Columns=Fixed Number, Width=0.222 in, Align=Top of Vertical Distribution, Unchecked=Ignore Text Wrap and Auto Size=Off.  Page numbers appears in normal position as Parent-A page until the Spread 65-66: But don't know why, digits of page number lower down little bit to bottom from the Spread#67-68 and remain until the last spread of the book: This causes the digit of page number being out of margin for which KDP is issuing Out of Margin error.Can you explain why this is happened and how to correct this issue? Regards,Mamun

All the default colours in the swatch window disappeared.  How do i get those colours back?

Not sure this landed on the right place. Where is the scripting part of the forum? Was it deleted? All that work... (This post is not a question.)Below you will find a sample script for exporting LAB color swatches from InDesign. InDesign seem to have difficulties keeping thousands of swatches in its palette, so take care. A variant of this script made for Illustrator or Photoshop would probably have been a better idea.   /* Script for exporting LAB colours from InDesign Swatches. Number, Name, L, A, and B columns semi colon separated. By Andreas Jansson, Code Combinations AB, Sweden, 2019. Description: First import a library of Pantone Colours so that they are present in the swatches palette of InDesign (you can export swatches from Photoshop, to an ASE file that is importable in InDesign). Then alter the path below to a folder of your choice and run this script with InDesign. The resulting file, I pasted into Excel. */ var result = ''; for (var i = 0; i

Any solutions to InDesign slow performance? It takes 5 seconds to type one character.I have tried the current version and other versions back to 19.5.3 and no difference.I read all the articles and did the things on the lists. (uninstalls, reboots, reset preferences, etc.)I've spent 2 days on this and am getting nowhere.  I've used InDesign since CS2.Company-managed computer is 9 years old, but I think it meets specs: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, Dell,  Xeon processor wth AVX2 support , 32GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro M4000.Computer passes all self-diagnistics and no memory-hog programs are running. Task Manager looks normal.All files are on the local SSD drive. Just basic conventional 2 to 4 page docs. This started after installing 20.2. Went back to 19.5.3 and it was fine for a week. Now sluggishness happens all the time, even when reinstalling various versions.Not blaming InDesign since it works fine on my newer home laptop.  I think it's either my old

I'm working on a technical piece in InDesign. The paragraph and character styles have been newly set up and I'm copying and pasting slabs of text from an older document. While making changes or typing in new wording, whenever I type a lower case 'i' the 'i' disappears and the font after that i changes to italic. How can I switch off this feature?
