InDesign

I have an InDesign (2025 version) and the document Export setting are in Spanish. However, when I export it  to PDF, the links tags and the document root tag are in English, but the Document Properties is in Spanish.  See scerenshots attached.To me, this looks there is a glitch with Adobe. I also tested with a French InDesign, and when exported to Adobe the links and the rood tag is also in English. So, this looks a common probelm with all langauges when exporting the PDF. For some reason adobne adds ENGLISH to the document root tag and links.Does anyone have seen this issue? Is there any workaround? Thanks!

Seit einigen Tagen kann ich übliche Short-Cuts nicht mehr verwenden, wie z. B. ein Objekt mit dem Auswahlwerkzeug markieren, mit der Maus halten und mit SHIFT vertikal / horizontal zu verschieben.Oder mit ALT + SHIFT das markierte Objekt zu kopieren, um es dann mit der Maus auf einer geraden Linie zu verschieben. Und das freie Verschieben von Objekten klappt nur noch mit der Tastatur und per Maus so gar nicht mehr. So kann man nicht mehr vernünftig arbeiten. Hat das auch etwas mit den allgemeinen Windows-Update-Problemem zu tun? Ist ein Patch in Sicht, da ich leider nicht auf eine ältere Version zurückwechseln kann. Ich nutze die neueste Version von Win 11 und die neuste Version von InDesign (20.1.).Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe.

Hi, I opened an EPUB with the Books app on Mac. All of a sudden, I see a black border in Endnote. I haven't seen it before. How can I resolve the issue? Hosun  

Indesign crashes every 10 minutes. It doesn't matter what I am working on, what commands and short cuts I use, it seems like any time I try to do anything in this program, it crashes.  It's not just the latest update, it is categorically the buggiest adobe product and I don't think we should be paying for such a subpar application. Please fix this issue asap becuase it's becomming unusable.

On about one-third of the images I place, when I scale them to fit where I want, they'll show up with a chunk of them outside the frame. The frame fitting menu is set to 0" on all but when I check the frame fitting on the image after it's been placed, it does show other numbers. There's no object style applied, and it doesn't happen when I just place, only when I scale the image to fit where I want it.

When I create a text frame on a master page in order to later use the Snap Margins to Text Frame script to create margins, something goes wrong. It used to work perfectly before, and the margins were exactly the same size as the text frame. Now it creates something like what you can see in the photo. I reinstalled the script and reset InDesign, but it didn’t help.Sorry for my English.

Hello, I am trying to export an interactive pdf and the text boxes I have created have colour and writing in them (for the end user to use or change). The trouble is when I export the interactive pdf, the text and colour that I've put in the text boxes has disappeared. How do I export the interactive pdf and keep the text and colour in my text boxes.  

Hi all. I have a legal document that needs bullet points at numerous levels with some up to five levels deep. The best way to describe what I require is to provide a screenshot of something that I have created manually as seen here:  As you can see, there are a few levels, and to add to the complexity there are paragraphs of text that arern't bullets. The document is 100+ pages long and I'd love for it to be automated because if a new sub-section or sub-sub bullet is added in the middle of content, then I'd like the following bullets to automatically update. How can I do this in InDesign?

Bonjour,pour les besoins d'un livre, je cherche une méthode qui me permettrait d'avoir la première ligne de chaque paragraphe alignée à gauche puis les suivantes alignées à droite et ce de façon automatique (sinon c'est trop facile).Une idée ?Merci par avance !

I am looking to build a template that has variations upon the layout for different displays/uses. The copy would be the same.  Think Digital ad packages, that may be the most relevant example. You have a half dozen variants of the same content/design. In use, you would edit the CTA and it would change across all variants. You drop in a new image, it is swapped out for all linked image boxes. In each case, the individual frames would keep their style settings. I want to link boxes so if one is edited, they are ALL edited.  Is this currently possible in InDesign? 

Where is Shift+F1 hiding? The system display doesn't set this shortcut either.  But when I set Shift+F1, it doesn't work the way I want it to, and when I press it a second time, I get a popup that says “Search complete”.When I cancel Shift+F1, it still pops up “Search Complete”. Thank you.

these programs cant even have same primary commands or keys to scale, move or edit. Im not able to scale one picture in indesign, every time i got picture in it and  I minimize it. it randomly just cuts off, this is annoying. Make sense between tehse programs. illustrator, photoshop, indesign, thx   [abuse removed by moderator]

Hi everyone, When I export from Indesign in pdf (PDF/X-1A:2001), I can see the mouse cursor blinking in the exported pdf. It is a scanned page (png) on top of what I applied text and objects, all are in the same layer. No matter where I put my mouse on those before the exportation, it always blink in the same spot (right at the beginning of a text cell). opened in adobe pro or reader, it is the same. can't get rid of it. Any suggestion to solve my issue? it's rather urgent..... Thanks!

Is Edit > Transparency Flattener Preset… broken in InDesign 2021? I can’t get any setting besides [Low Resolution] to stick, nor custom settings. Exporting compatibility Acrobat 4/PDF 1.3 (requested from vendor printers) produces low-resolution flattened images that I have to up-sample in Photoshop. Have tried everything. Used to work. Others have posted outside ASC that custom settings will save won’t stick either when applied.

Feature request:It would be really useful to be able to remove a hyperlink from text by simply right clicking the text and selecting Hyperlink/Remove hyperlink. For example, I can do it in this editor right here, by hovering over text containing a link and clicking "unlink". Easy as anything.To do this in indesign, I need to KNOW to go to the interactive elements menu, find the specific instance of the hyperlink in this menu (which could contain hundereds of links), remove the specific instance of this hyperlink from that menu, just hoping I've selected the correct one and not deleted a key link from miles away in the document... It's a bizzaire system. If I can add a hyperlink using a right click, and edit a hyperlink using a right click, surely I should be able to remove one too?  NB: I know how to remove hyperlinks, this is a UI request for a more conventional way of doing so. Feel free to explain why this doesn't exist, but don't tell me it is easier t

Just wondering if anyone has a quick solution to this. I have 550 unique pages in InDesign and all 550 pages share the same common back, 1100 pages all up. I’ve created a master/ Parent page for the Common Back so it can be placed into the document without any further work to be done to it. My printer has requested that he wants the front and the back in a sequence ie Front unique page on page 1 and then on page 2 the Common Back, then Unique page on page 3 and then the Common Back on page 4 and so on....My question is is there a quick way of applying the common Back page without having to do all 550 pages individually? See exapmle belowIf anyone can help soon it would be much appriciated.thanksAngelos 

Hi, I am trying to do a progress bar witch starts when I run the script and ends when the script finishes.Can anyone help please?Thanks!

In Windows InDesign v19 I map styles to tags, apply the artifact tag to selected Paragraph Styles, export to PDF, use Read Out Loud in Acrobat, and as intended Acrobat does not read the artifact tagged text. I next apply the artifact tag to a selected Character Style, export to PDF, and Acrobat DOES read the artifact tagged text. If I right click to edit a Paragraph Style, choose Export Tagging, there are EPUB and HTML options and PDF options. If I right click to edit the Character Style, choose Export Tagging, there are EPUB and HTML options but no PDF options.  How can I map a Character Style to the Artifact tag, export to PDF, and have Acrobat recognize the Artifact tag and not read the artifact tagged text out loud. Thank you. - Bll

I recently upgraded my operating system to Sequoia.At first everything went smoothly. I noticed no problems and was using Adobe applications normally (InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat... all updated).At some point they stopped working. I cannot open any Adobe applications. The spinning wheel goes on and on and nothing happens until I force quit.I remember trying to open a file with an older version of InDesign, one that is not supported by Sequoia (I did not know that at the time). I have no idea if this has anything to do with the problem. I will let you know just in case.Any tips on how to fix this?

Hello!  On Windows 11, and the latest version of InDesign.As stated in the title, it freezes/crashes when importing images or going into read mode. Things I've tried:- Resetting preferences- Reinstalling InDesign- Exporting the problem file to a different format(Plus a number of other things that I can't remember the specifics of anymore, sorry) Is there anything else I can try to fix this?

Hi all! I'm working on a huge catalog file that I did not create. The master pages are full of greeking. It takes me forever to spell check because of these pages. Is there a preference I can set to skip spell checking the master pages? Thanks.

Bonjour, indesign version 18.1 lors de l'assemblage d'un document, pas d'erreur remontées, choix du répertoire d'enregistrement OK mais ensuite erreur : "Ce document contient des liens vers des fichiers ou URL qui ne sont pas accèssibles. Veuillez vérifier la connectivité de votre réseau ou la source aoriginal du contenu"si on clique sur ok : "In design n'a pas pu assembler le document "xxxxxx.indd" Impossible de copier le ou les fichiers liès nécessaires"  le projet a été crée en 2021. il a été stocké sur un lecteur réseau, la personne qui a le soucis a copié le répertoire sur son mac en local , a refait les liens , le document s'affiche parfaitement.  Avez-vous des piste à nous donner pour trouver pourquoi ces erreurs aparaissent ? merci d'avance.

Sudden realization:Align to page, align across pages are only aligned to the position that does not contain the bleed (you call it margin?).  I'm speechless. What kind of special hobby is this?Alignment to this position shouldn't be the primary need. What's the point of aligning to this? Who makes books without bleed? What was Adobe thinking? How do you align to the bleed (far left or far right)?Could it be that you have to enter -3mm coordinates to do this?
