I have created a set of parent pages that have section headings on them and as you go through the document, when you change sections the new section gets highlighted in some way.I started with one parent page, with all the sections to be used, we’ll call that A-Parent. I then created a new Parent, named it B-Introduction and had it “Based on A-Parent.” I did an override on the word Introduction and styled it how I wanted and I was done. Then I created another new Parent, named it C-Product and had it based on A-Parent. Again, I did an override on the word Product and styled it how I wanted. I continued this process for each section that needed a highlight. As I went through the document, I applied the appropriate Parent page.I exported the PDF, and when I was reviewing it, I found that when I got to the first page of the section with the D-People parent page applied to it, it was holding onto the treatment from the previous parent page section, C-People.This is a screenshot of the A-Pa
InDesign continues to freeze, even though the PC fully meets all system requirements and there are no signs of performance limitations. The processor, RAM, and disk all have sufficient available capacity during use, which rules out a lack of computing power as the cause. To eliminate potential installation issues, InDesign has already been completely uninstalled and reinstalled. Despite this, the problem persists, indicating that the root cause likely lies elsewhere.
I keep getting this when I try to open up indesign. I have updated to the most recent edition and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling InDesign. Please help I need to submit an assignment tomorrow.
We just updated to the latest version of InDesign CC. Now the cursor does not respond, and the tools are not accessible. We have to restart the computer many times already—12 times a day so far since the update. Closing the app does not work; it goes back to idle ghost mode after 10 minutes. When selecting type and modifying text, the type does not show. We move elements and then cannot move them back. When selecting text, it highlights, but then the app stops working. Placed images disappear, come back after 5 minutes, disappear again, and then the app crashes. We have reinstalled the app twice already, same issues. What a nice update! Kudos to the InDesign team—now you've done it. My projects are delayed. Looking for a solution PRONTO.
I have the latest Indesign version. However I don't have the option Open PDF to convert PDFs into Indd files... How is it possible?
Hi community.I know the object states work when the PDF is viewed in Epub, next object state, previous object state buttons.But is there a method to make an object style for images to recycle back and forth, just to be viewed as a PDF file, if the Epub isnt available? Thank you.
left page is mostly blank, the right has an image and for some reason there is a strip of one page on the other
PDF Export seems to be more buggy, when the “Edit in Indesign” option is activated. De-activating it made a difference here Win 11 / Indesign 21.?
After 5 years of paying for InDesign, suddenly my Segoe font is “missing” and instead of 0 errors in preflight panel I get a hundred errors. Still, I can edit fine and when exporting, the pdf looks like it has the desired font.
Because the latest distiller settings are tougher and error frequently, InDesign users need a way to easily export documents as print spreads (imposed from reader spreads) from the “print booklet” option. Currently I can either print to my home printer or print to postscript, but not print to pdf.
I’m trying to figure out what is possible to do with AI (not Illustrator!) in Indesign. I’m wondering if others can share what they are doing to speed up their workflow and how they might be doing it?
If I replace an existing jpeg with the same name via Indesign export, the file size stays the same in finder, even if I halve the size of the jpeg.If I then open the jpeg and save as in Photoshop, the file size drops correctly.
Hey there, folks! We’re excited to introduce a new feature in Adobe InDesign (Beta). Generate Text is an AI-powered feature that helps you quickly create new content or refine what you already have—whether you want to rephrase, shorten, lengthen, or change the tone of your existing text, all directly within Adobe InDesign (Beta). You can learn more about the feature here.Start transforming existing text or creating new content: Start by opening any document in the InDesign (Beta) app. Highlight any text or position the cursor within a text frame to encompass the entire story. Navigate to the Contextual Task Bar (Window > Contextual Task Bar) and select Generate Text to bring up the Generate panel. Alternatively, you can access the Generate option via Window > Generate, the right-click menu, or from the Quick Actions section in the Properties panel by selecting Generate Text. In the Prompt field, type a description of the output you're aiming for and click Generate. If you
Is there any way to retrieve my file if it is corrupted and not opening?
Ich möchte in einer personalisierten Einladung verschiedene Datenfelder für die Anrede nutzen. Z.B. Titel, Position, Name. Sind in einem Datenfeld keine Inhalte vorhanden, fügt InDesign ein Leerzeichen ein. Wie kann ich das unterdrücken? Die Funktion “Leerzeilen für leere Datenfelder entfernen” habe ich aktiviert, das bringt allerdings innerhalb einer Zeile nichts. Gibt es eine andere Möglichkeit?
Sorry, the previous post was a bit messy and off-topic.I sorted out my thoughts.I want to collect all the commonly used styles in a B document (assuming the path is "D:/B.indd")When I am working on A.indd, I need to obtain the "Paragraph Line Settings" for B1.I want to get such an interface.for exampleParagraph lineParagraph backgroundGrepThere are two issues that I cannot implement at present:How to access the style of B.indd without opening it.After selecting one of the items, can the content of that item be displayed on the right side.It's roughly like this: This is a piece of code copied from elsewhere./** * @name A的相邻段落样式B替换BNone *///call the makeDialog functionmakeDialog();//$.writeln("[" + psl + "]")function makeDialog() { //the dialog object var theDialog = app.dialogs.add({ name: "Test ", canCancel: true }); //note this would not get grouped styles with (theDialog.dialogColumns.add()) { staticTexts.add({ staticLabel: "source document:" }); staticTexts
Bonjour,Je dois réaliser un agenda 1 jour par page. Quel script puis-je utiliser car calendar wizard ne propose pas de solution pour daily planner?
we have equations created in mathtype using open type fonts ‘ArnoPro-Regular’ and ‘STIXGeneral-Regular’ where equation symbols such as beta are correct in mathtype eps. When it is placed in InDesign the symbols are collapsed even though the fonts are present in the system. What could be the issue when palcing the mathtype eps image in InDesign? How to overcome the solution? The client’s requirement is to use only these fonts. Coorect equation:Same equation how it appears in InDesign:Entire equation is collapsed in InDesignWhen checking the fonts panel in InDesign: it shows not embedded.
When using an existing table on indesign the text is black (how i want it) but when adding columns and rows onto this - they are blue text with an underline.How do i make it so it is the same text as above.
Hi-- I autoflowed text from Word and it worked perfect for all but the last 10 or so pages, where it just stopped. After troubleshooting, it seems like my hyphenation (off) settings on my paragraph style are what is causing the text to not show. Any ideas or experience with this issue? I tried copy and pasting the missing text, but when I apply my paragraph style it disappears. I tried creating a new paragraph style, but once I turned off hyphenation it disappeared again. Any advice is greatly apprecaiated. Thank you!
I'm trying to export an InDesign file I have previously worked on other versions, but this error prompts: "Failed to export the PDF file.""Possible cause of failure is present on spread with page number "5"." I have deleted the spread mentioned in the error, removed all hyperlinks, verified that the document has no errors, and tried to export the file in batches, but nothing is working. For reference: I'm using macOS Monterey.
Hi there, I've searched the community and the web for this glitch and can't find it. unfortunately the latest updated to both software and OS haven't fixed this.Basically, if I leave my design for a little bit, and then come back to it (say after a meeting)I find that as soon as I tap the page with my cursor – the entire layout (all pages) disappear. Everything else is still present including my pages column on the right. But the only thing that seems to bring it back is saving and restarting the programme which obvs isn't convenient.Anyone else experienced this and/or has a fix?Many thanksCarolyh
Bonjour.J’ai un problème avec un export PDF interactif depuis InDesign.Contexte :J’importe des PDF dans InDesign. Je les recadre dans des blocs afin de n’afficher qu’une partie du contenu. Ensuite j’exporte en Adobe PDF interactif. Problème : dans le PDF exporté :la recherche texte trouve du contenu (texte) qui n’est pas visible (voir photos jointes) Acrobat surligne parfois du “vide”, on dirait que le texte situé hors du recadrage reste présent dans la structure du PDF.J’ai compris que : le recadrage InDesign est seulement visuel, le contenu complet du PDF importé semble rester embarqué dans le PDF interactif exporté.Contraintes :Je ne peux pas : aplatir le PDF, convertir en image, ni “imprimer en PDF”, car j’ai besoin de conserver : les liens interactifs, la qualité vectorielle, et le texte recherchable. Je veux pouvoir recherche du texte mais seulement dans mes blocs recadrés et pas en dehors Question :Existe-t-il une méthode pour supprimer réellement le contenu hors recadrage de
I produce monthly magazines and at the end of every month I send my files to the printer and when the magazines come back printed I package the files and go to publish online I then copy and paste the link that throws up up and create a link to that URL on my website behind an image of the cover of each magazine, job done. I have been working on a separate project of a magazine for a charity carnival and have been trying to get the magazine printed with the publish online link already in it but I'm finding that very difficult because if I create a link and a QR code to the published magazine I then have to try and add that link to the printed page before it gets printed sounds odd but I've been going dizzy trying to solve this one. All I want to achieve is have the magazine printed with the link to Adobe Portal Publish online. Anybody got any solutions?
I am translating a document from English to Hebrew. I need to substitute the text and flip some objects / pages. When i type the hebrew text in Story, it looks correct. But when i Close Story, on the actual page, the letters appear LTR instead of RTl.
