Hi, I'm trying to upload an Epub to the apple store as I've been doing for years, but now I'm getting this error:ERROR ITMS-9000: epub_igualdade_racial_7ed.epub: OEBPS/content.opf(28): [OPF-027] Undefined property: 'pageBreakSource'.The pageBreakSource export option is a new feature added in the 2025 version. It's manly for epubs based on a printed version. I can validate the Epub with no errors in epubchecker. I don't want to create an extra epub only for Apple. Is anyone getting this same error?

Can anyone recommend an Open Type Font for lettered and numbered lists? When Postscript was still an option, I would use Circle Frame MT or Bundasbahn. I think some people refer to them as 'OMR bubble fonts'.

How can i remove all texts of a document which are assigned to a specific character style?

Hi, I was hoping someone could help as I have always used Indesign on Microsoft and recently have started using a Mac.  I am basically looking for the Mac version of Ctrl and Shift when resizing images in Indesign. I have tried all different combinations and cannot get the same outcome on the Mac. (the images do not keep their ratio)  Thanks! 

Hi fellow designers, I'm creating a document in InDesign working in RGB mode since it's purpose is only web-view pdf. It consists of both text and images. On one of the pages I have to insert a certain amount of logo's from several companies. However, one of those logo's (a .png created in Photoshop, using greyscale workspace) causes the colors I use in the document for e.g. text, to change from bright RGB colors to flat CMYK-like colors. At first I thought it was only an indesign preview thing, which would be solved by creating an RGB PDF. But unfortunately the color stays flat even in pdf. I've tried all sorts of ways to both save the images and export the pdf but the problem continues. Does anybody have to answer to solve this problem? Thanks.

I have created 3 xmlElements inside the story. All three have same paragraph style.// Just a dummy script for demo. if (app.selection.length > 0) { // Get the selected item var selectedItem = app.selection[0]; var test = 0; ... }   In debugger, selectedItem.textStyleRanges.length1selectedItem.textStyleRanges[0].contentsparagraph 1 paragraph 2 paragraph 3What I want is since I selected 1st tag(1st xmlElement with content paragraph 1) only that should have displayed on debug console.I need all the different style ranges  and contents from perticular xmlElement and not the contents from neighbouring xmlElements I know textStyleRanges returns that. But  is there a way to do what I want?

All the  assets were created the same way, from the same Illustrator build file. The ones that I created recently and loaded via Adobe Express show grayed out and display "This item is not supported in inDesign." Same thing happens if you try to use the library items in Illustrator.  The strange thing is that if you select the asset and then right-click on it, choose Place linked from the drop down menu, it will place it for you as normal. I have tried replacing the assets in the library to see if I can make the grayed-out status disappear, but it didn't change.  Screenshot attached of error message. You can also see the placed icon on the page in spite of the error message.  Kathleen

Hola comunidad,Esto siempre me pasa desde mi mac por lo que tengo que usar indesign desde una pc al hacer diplomas. Cuando utilizo la función de combinación de datos para poner los nombres de los participantes me aparecen con palomitas y otros símbolos en donde lleva tildes y ñs.Ya probé hacer el archivo con los nombres desde excel y también desde google sheets exportándolo como "valores separados por tabulaciones" (.tsv), todo se ve bien pero al momento de usarlo en indesign aparecen esos problemas.

Hey, I have a problem I have difficulties solving on my own.I prepare file in Indesign, keeping everything in sRGB IEC6...1. Export PNG files with transparent backgrounds from Procreate2. Place them in InDesign (linking)3. Indesign is set up for sRGB IEC6...4 Then I Export to pdf using sRGB IEC... as an ouput (embeding profile)I wanted to try using Adobe 5 format compatibility, to avoid downsides of Adobe 4- lines and dividing pictures to triangles, as I observed at least one printing result where printer lost parts of the images. For most of them, these lines resulting from flattening are only visible on screens (something I still would like to avoid if possible). Also, clickable table of contents would be great.So I exported PDF file with Adobe 5 compatibility and received such result on two different printers.What can I do to avoid lines, fractals, and have clicable ToC and not end up with black PNG backgrounds?Have I done anything wrong?All help appreciated!

Since my InDesign updated this morning (can't say for definite that this is connected, but hadn't noticed it before) my contextual taskbar is now 'stuck' onto the right-hand sidebar.  It's not as though it's pinned, as such, as it will move up and down, but is locked into it's horizontal position.  Clicking 'unpin' does nothing; if I hide it and then open again it reappears in the same position, in the same state. Any ideas on how to solve this ?

Hi all,Not an expert user here, but I'm usually able to solve my own problems. This one has me stumped. I am designing a children's book interior that uses Ten Oldstyle 11 pt as the main font. Occasionally, however, I want to indicate that words are text messages so I'm using American Typewriter 10 pt for that. The result is that I have some paragraphs that use both fonts. Obviously, this is throwing off the leading, which then makes it so that the bottom margin of the page is different from the rest of the pages. Is there a quick fix for this? I've tried adjusting all sorts of things in the paragraph style and the character style, but I haven't gotten any good results. See screenshot.Thanks, Suki

Hello there, I am trying to change [Black] in my document to a new swatch I created and normally, I'd go to Edit > Find/Change and do my thing. But this time, when I am searching for [Black] in my document, so I can change it, the dialogue box is finding pretty much every colour BUT the black in my document.  Using the screen shot, you can see that what it found isn't [Black] but a completly different swatch in the document.  What am I doing wrong?Thanks! 

Hi There's this script from Peter Kahrel, that swaps comma and period for number notation.However, I'd like a version where I can only target numbers inside a cell/table.  //DESCRIPTION: Exchange commas and periods in numbers // Peter Kahrel (function () { function findItems () { if (!app.selection.length) { return app.activeDocument.findGrep(); } if (app.selection[0] instanceof TextFrame) { return app.selection[0].parentStory.findGrep(); } try { return app.selection[0].findGrep(); } catch (_) { } exit(); } app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null; app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "\\d+[,.\\d]+\\d+"; var found = findItems(); var temp; for (var i = found.length-1; i >= 0; i--) { temp = found[i].contents.replace (/,/g, '#'); temp = temp.replace (/\./g, ','); found[i].contents = temp.replace (/#/g, '.') } }());  

Hello. Is there a way to create a style or a grep that will automatically convert text to a percentage format? So for example if I type "25.5" into a text box, it automatically adds a "%" at the end to make it "25.5%"? Similar to how it works in cell formatting in Excel? I have a file that includes a lot of numbers that need to be typed in so not having to type the % character or paste it in every time would save me some time. Thank you.

Hello Adobe world,I am hoping that you guys can help me out. I am working in an Indesign file, we have some pricing tables for a client that they update the excel pricing sheet, and then we are setting up their sales sheets that get professionally printed with the linked data from excel. One of the tabs (possible more, but my brain is dead from trying to figure this out) when I go to import the range of data A1:F10, it keeps importing that data, and then there was 4 additional columns of blank cells. It is like Indesign is importing A1:J10, but that is not what I am asking to import from that particular worksheet. What I have tried so far:I have completely copied and pasted the content into a newly created tab in excel, along with stripped all formatting for new worksheet, i have also deleted the extra columns in excel just incase any hidden characters where in a random cell. I have also tried to import using other table styles we have setup, and tried to import using no table style. I

I have a document with lots of interactive form fields to translate and I'm trying to figure out a way to extract all the text field names at once. Does anyone know a script to achieve this? Any help will be greatly appreciated. 

I currently have an indesign file that is about 12MB.  It has a lot of PDF's in the document that I created from a CAD software.  Each PDF is from 200KB to 2MB.   When I export the InDesign file to PDF, the pdf is about 14 MB and can't be easily emailed that way. We want to be able to email the file so it needs to be under 5 preferably.  If I compress the pdf, the  drawings that were placed in the document get really grainy and don't look sharp. I'm sure other people have made larger documents with high quality pictures and can get the file side that is easy to work with.  Is there a way to get the final PDF down to a more reasonable size without losing quality.  Is there something I should do with the smaller pdf's that I place inside the document?Thanks,Sara

Hello! I'm working on a catalog-style project and have run into a dilemma. It is a large printed brochure that will have 50+ pages using a different parent for left and right pages. Over time, we will need to add pages, but they will be placed in between existing pages as the content is ordered in a specific way—so, pages that were on the left may end up on the right and we'll need to change the parent so the document reads correctly.The left and right parent pages contain the same image frame but in a different position so the bleed doesn't show in the facing pages. I add an image by dragging it into the frame. However, if I add a page and need to change another page's parent from right to left, this adds a new image frame from the new parent instead of just moving the position of the existing one. This creates a problem as the image bleed appears on the right page. I know I can just manually move the images, but am looking to automate this somehow to save time as the document gr

I have been reading comments with the same topic but I cannot find the solution to my problem. WHenever  I update the TOC, it only shows the header. I double checked the styles already, I saved the idml and opened that, I tested with a new para style to try-still not working. Is there any way someone can check this for me? Thank you so much!

Ich habe ein Problem mit der mehrstufigen Nummerierung in InDesign und hoffe, dass mir jemand helfen kann. Ich habe ein dreistufiges Nummerierungssystem mit Kapitel (Ebene 1), Unterkapitel (Ebene 2) und Unter-Unterkapitel (Ebene 3) eingerichtet. Mein Problem:Die Nummerierung der Hauptkapitel (Ebene 1) funktioniert korrekt (1, 2, 3, 4...). Die Unterkapitel (Ebene 2) setzen sich aber aus dem vorherigen Kapitel fort, anstatt neu zu starten. Aber erst ab Kapitel 4. Bei Kapitel 1, 2 und 3 hat alles funktioniert. Das neue Kapitel „4“ , sollte darunter das erste Unterkapitel „4.1“ anzeigen– aber stattdessen steht dort „3.6“. Hat jemand eine Idee, woran das liegen könnte? Ich habe auch sichergestellt, dass alle Ebenen in der gleichen benutzerdefinierten Liste sind. Vielen Dank für eure Hilfe! 

When I publish my document, some of the colors in the photos change. Although the photos are png or jpg, the color is RGB, what is the reason for this?
