InDesign

I used to have an old script that would open any image from InDesign in Photoshop in one click.However somehow, with the newer version of InDesign, none of the scripts that I had or found online, work. (I am on Mac, InDesign 2023 and Photoshop 2024).I am not a scripter, so I've asked ChatGPT to write one. After about an hour of several unsuccesful attempts we have finally managed to produce a working Java Script! So here I share it with you. You are welcome to improve it.imagesToPS(); function imagesToPS() { if (app.selection.length > 0) { var selectedPageItem = app.selection[0]; // Assuming the first selected item is a page item if (selectedPageItem.constructor.name == "Image") { var filePath = selectedPageItem.itemLink.filePath; openImageInPhotoshop(filePath); } else { alert("Selected item is not an image."); } } else { alert("No items selected."); } } function openImageInPhotoshop(filePath)

Liebe Comunitiy,Ich wollte mein Dokument von Doppelseite auf Einzelseite ändern, da kommt die Fehlermeldung: Durch den anfeforderten Vorgang würde ein Objekt zu klein. Stellen Sie sicher, dass die Konturstärken nicht zu groß sind. Ich weiß nicht welches Objekt gemeint ist. Wie kann ich das herausfinden, oder auch trotzdem die Seitenformatierung ändern?Ich hoffe, auf baldige NachrichtVielen Dank, Dagmar

Hello I am using indesign on my 14inch macbook pro apple m1 monterey. Each time I move an object the artboard & background workspace flashes. I have checked and both my indesign & macbook softwares are up to date.  I have noticed it seems to happen when I drag the indesign window from my main macbook screen to my seperate monitor. That seems to activate the glitch and then it flashes each time I move an object on both my macbook & monitor screen. Hoping theres a way to fix this thanks 

I am using Mac M1 Chip Mac OS Sequoia 15.3.1, Adobe Indesign 19.4. Recently while working in World Ready Composer Language Malayalam the shaping rule does not get applied in the bullet and numbered list. I ad applied the Harfbuzz script but in vein.  Could you offer a solution at the earliest.

Not sure if anyone reported / noticed it before:     As you can see - there is NO color defined - 31, 32, 33 - BUT there is still 70% TINT applied...     First "31", the on the left - is 100% - on the right, in the applied CharStyle - it's 70%.   But if I turn OFF color - 1st screenshot - tint is still affecting text - but can't be changed without applying some color first...    Yes, it's handy if someone needs to just change tint of the color applied in the ParaStyle - but then it should be editable?  

Hey Adobe Community,I’m working on a Menu UK project and want to design visually appealing restaurant menus. I’d love to hear recommendations on the best Adobe tools and workflows for creating high-quality menu designs.

Hello!Is there a script that can mark all texts that are not in my default language and insert a character style? I have a file in Portuguese, but I need to mark all the words in English with a character style.

I have to use Noto Sans; Its required by my work at my University.  Is there a way to limit your font view to preferred language chosen by OS/region. My font menu is a mess of languages and its hard to navigate to choose just Noto Sans.  Try it... really.. Try and Type Not Sans..  I never get the one I type its always one of the other languages. I then need to roll this solution out via JAMF to EVERY lab computer!  So when a user choose there working language InDesign offer them the right font.   IT'S A MESS RIGHT NOW!

Hello,   After updating to InDesign 2025, I have noticed significant performance issues. The program has become much slower, and every time I try to create a PDF from a book, InDesign crashes and closes entirely.   Can you please help me?     <Title renamed by MOD>

"The document's embedded color porfile does not match the current RGB working space. the current RGB color maanagmenent policy is to discard profiles that do not matchthe working space." clcick cancel or Okay error.  what does this mean I have changed nothing in the file or the program I just updated my OS but now I cant open files without this... and Im nervous about destroying my books.  I have over a thousand pages of images and I need them. But I cant open if I hit cancel and I don't know what it would do if I hit okay. Everything is linked in bridge Im so confused. Please assist.

I'm working on a book that's currently 7x10" and need to make it 8x10".  There are 13 documents in the book, and I wonder if there if a way to resize all the documents as a batch. There was a question about this in 2023 that included a script, but I'm hoping there is something more recent.The resizing will require different horizontal margins to compensate for the long lines, no change to font size.Any help appreciated!

I'm working on a corporate presentation that needs to be exported as an Interactive PDF.I've got the Index that needs to be interactive and take you to the corresponding pages, so I'm using the button "go to page" for each item... I also have a link to the index in every page of the presentation, in order to go navigate quickly through the document.Until last week everything worked fine, but since Friday 22th it stopped working!I wonder if I should directly change software (and use something like Keynote instead) because it seems that InDesign is more and more deficient for interactive PDF export.Please help!Thank you so much

Just a question, is there a plugin or something like Grammarly for InDesign?

I have the message in indesign show Missing required parameter 'from' for method 'open' each time I double click on any indesign file. At the same time I  use shotcut keys and would normally use apple+E for export files to pdf. I have not updated anything. Current Indesign is 15.1 and running MacOS Cataline 10.15.2.  I have searched everything and find no solution   {Renamed By MOD}

Hello!  I recently downloaded @Peter Kahrel, price_adjuster.jsx script, for InDesign. The script works great, and i managed to add my own currency symbol, but the only problem i have, is how do i change the code so the position of the currency symbol, will be placed from the beginning of the text line, to the end of the text line? For example: Instead of: €5.500  Then i want it to look like:5.500€ In advance, thank you very much! 

I saw the new Generative AI feature in InDesign and created a couple of images while I was working on a document for print. I deleted the images from my layout, but noticed they still appear in the Links panel. The images are neither embedded nor linked and I can't find any way remove them. I fear that they may cause problems when putting my files into a print production RIP, so hoping to find a way to delete them.  

I was trying out the new Auto Style and Style Packs features. I had some inconsistent results when applying them. Sometimes the heading wouldn't be styled the same way. Other times, numbers at the beginning of paragraphs went missing (that were part of the text). Would also like to be able to change the number of mapped styles in the Style Packs, like if I only need 3 styles in the text and not the 6 that are there. [see defaults in screen shot]. Not all texts have lists. I've been using a lot of GREP style features as well. The auto style seems like a step in the right direction, but it could be better with some customization. Any thoughts comments greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm facing issue in InDesign PAC validation, that it shows error 'Link annotation not nested in link structure' even though pdf has <link> tag and inside it have Link -Objr. But the <Link> & Link-Objr point to some other text, along with its tagged text. IS there any solution to fix in InDesign or PDF.

How can I import an image into InDesign, in a ten point frame, without the image being cropped by ten points on all four sides? Can I fit the image to the inside of the frame?

Well, it was gone for some time, but now the screen teraring is back in Indesign 2024, and InDesign 2025. Reset prefs and all; preview on CPU doesn't change anything but turning off the GPU acceleration seems to work for awhile. I thought this issue had been fixed, but apparently not.     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi, this is my first post hereI have seen many posts about this issue dating back 10+ years, and they all talked about reinstalling, restarting, deleting preferences, deleting cache. I tried most of those today, except reinstalling here's the short of it:I CANNOT move objects (shapes, images, or even rearrange pages) with a MOUSE/TABLET on InDesign. It happened suddenly today. I thought I pressed a button like Lock/Alt/Insert by accident by even unplugging keyboard doesnt helphere's a history to make it clearer1. SETUPI work with a Laptop + 2 monitors + 1 XP Pen graphics tablet. I have been using this setup for 4 months with no issues. I also take it home and sometimes work with a single screen. or 2 screens. The point is I've swapped around with display setups and I know that could trigger some errors, but this has been unique today. Laptop is connected to Monitor 2 via HDMI. Laptop is connected to Tablet via USB C. Laptop is connected to USB hub via USB C. USB Hub connects

Hi community,  I'm puzzeled for an hour now, on why my texte doesn't to wrap to the next line in a simple text box ? example:As soon as I reframe it, the text disappear and didn'T wrap to next line... ** I basically tried at first to copy text from MSword then copy it inside a text box in indesign. This undesired behavior happend. Now it does it also when I'm typing (not wrapping to next line automatically...) Frustrating, Thanks for helps, Charles C. 

I'm having an issue when I publish my file online, on the last page there are missing text boxes and logos. It is a part of a master page, but all other master pages are loading fine!!! When i export into regular PDF the missing items are there, so I'm not sure what's wrong!

Buongiorno, ho appena aggiornato indesign alla versione 20.2 e adesso nel finder le anteprime dei file non sono più visibili.  Risulta anche a voi? Soluzioni?Grazie

I recently updated to the latest InDesign 2025 version via the creative cloud. Now every couple of hours when I am using it and I hold option and drag a text or object frame to duplicate it the program now crashes. It doesnt happen every time and when I reopen the program the drag to duplicate function works fine but then after a couple more files or an hour or two go by and it will happen again. These are all different files with different elements with no common link between them and it was not occuring before this latest patch.
