InDesign

Bonjour,J'ai un souci conceranant la réorganisation des pages de mmon document.Mon cliquer-glisser ne fonctionne pas, j'ai un "sens interdit" qui apparait.J'ai bien décocher "autoriser la réorganisation des pages du document" ainsi que "autoriser la réorganisation de la planche sélectionnée", mais cela ne fonctionne pas.Ce qui est fou, c'est que lorsque je donne la main à distance à mon formateur, cela fonctionne.Si vous pouviez m'aider.Merci d'avance. 

When I highlight text in indesign to type over it, the first letter I type doesnt actually type over it. It does absolutely nothing. After that first letter the rest writes over it correctly.For instance, if I have the word "cat" and I highlight it and want to type "dog" over it, when I hit "d" it does nothing, but the "og" will type.Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thank you.

When a line or shape or path is selected in Illustrator, there is an option to change the width profile from Uniform to different options. I want to use this same feature in InDesign. I don't know if it's hidden or simply not possible.If it's not possible, does anyone have any suggestions, because when I copy and paste from Illustrator into InDesign, it converts the path into a shape...Thanks in advance!

Bonjour je voulais savoir s'il était possible de remplacer un glyphe par défaut par un autre. Par exemple quand je crée un fichier InDesign et que j'y insère du texte la lettre "a" vient par défaut (Fond rouge-capture d'écran) et j'aimerai que par défaut avoir l'autre "a" (Fond vert-capture d'écran) sans que je doive le faire manuellement. Merci pour votre aide. 

Indesign 2025 est extrêment lent sur MacbookPro M4, c'est honteux!!!D'autre part il semblerait qu'il y est plusieurs buggs entre les paragraphes contenant une note de bas de page et un bloc ancré au niveau de l'appel de note… En espérant qu'Adobe se ressaisisse!!!!¡¡¡¡

I compose long complex books that have both footnotes and endnotes, and I need the ability to restart the foot- and endnote numbering at the beginning of each new chapter. A while back when I posted to this forum, I was able to download a script called StorySplitter.jsx that enabled me to restart foot- and endnote numbering at the beginning of each new chapter. The script "SplitStory.jpx" that comes with Indesign DOES NOT perform the same function and will split text on ALL pages. StorySplitter.jsx script no longer functions with INDD 2025. Can anyone please supply an update to StorySplitter or a workaround? If so, thank you!

Bonjour à tous, visiblement j'ai un bug au moment de la sélection de texte dans Indesign 19.5 L'affichage devient blanc. !!! et saute. Je suis en Mac - Sonoma 14.2... Quelqu'un aurait une idée, parce que là, c'est très agaçant et Indesign est inutilisable !!!!

Hallo!Viele viele Jahre ist es her, aber ich kann mich erinnern dass es für Indesign einen Script oder Plug-in gab, wo mir alle verwendeten Verknüpfungen in einem Dokument in den verschiedenen Ordner im Finder suchte und z.b. Grün einfärbte. Ich weiß es gibt die Paket-Funktion, aber manchmal möchte man die Ordner mit jede Menge Bilder behalten und nur die im Dokument verwendeten Verknüpfungen gekennzeichnet haben.  Kennt jemand noch diese Funktion? Ich finde leider mit Google nichts...Dankeschön!

Check the first line, it is very tight (no spacing). This is in Indesign 2024 & 2025.  Now check this, same text in Indesign 2023 Here the spacing is proper. To get this type of setting in 2025 we have to turn on the Enable legacy in Advacnced Type I am also attaching a sample indd. How to fix this in newer versions of indesign without relying on the legacy option, as it wont be around for long?

Up until a few years ago I had no issues with my CMYK colours displaying on the screen as they would when printed.  Now they are vastly different - eg. to get a dusty orange, the cmyk values show on my screen as quite a bright orange. Even viewing after export as PDF it's the same bright colour.  We had to go through a lot of swatches to get it to print the right colour. I've now had to change printers and will most likely be using online services. I'd just like to feel confident that what I see on the screen is as close as possible to the printed product. Would really appreciate some help in setting up indesign settings to show this!

I can see and select objects, and sometimes content previews show up in the pages dialog, but I routinely have issues with all of my open files where there is just nothing showing up. No pages. No Boxes. Only when I hover over something can I see that the content actually still is there. The only thing that fixes it is a restart.Changing views between Preview and Normal does nothing.  My coworkers said they also have this issue.

Hello, I am in InDesign and whenever I grab an object with the selection tool and try to move it, it automatically offsets the object off to the right a bit (see screenshot). It is making it impossible to properly compose my pages. I have tried restarting, restarting the computer, uninstalling and re-installing InDesign. And I can't seem to find an answer in the forum. Thanks

Hello everyone. I use InDesign everyday, and have for a decade. I opened InDesign 2025 v20.1 this morning and started inserting some photos. My keyboard shortcuts (i.e. shift and shift+option) are not working for constraining the size of photos while I resize either them or the frame they are in. Any assistance would be fantastic, thank you.

Using InDesign 2025 in macOS Sequoia 15.3, and I've a new document I just started assigning paragraphy and character styles to.  Every time I try to copy paste a text box, the program crashes and its followed by the "InDesign quit unexpectedly" and  "Sorry, an error occured." window.  I then reopen the file and get the "(File name) may be damaged. Do you want to open it anyway?.  This is the second time I have issues like this with InDesign 2025 in two months despite installing/uninstalling it twice in the same time period.  Any advice out there? This is utterly frustrating.

Hi gang, I just noticed this yesterday: InDesign 2025 Preferences > General > Content-Aware Fit > Make Content-Aware Fit the Default Frame Fitting Option I like it to be switched ON; but if you go back to the Parent Page and change the size of the frame, and return to the local physical page, the image in the Parent-Page-Supplied-Frame will not change. If you turn this preference OFF, the size changes on the parent page graphics frame will still influence the local page graphic frame. Is this a bug?

Whenever I try to move an object or text box with the mouse, a red circle with a slash through comes up. I can still move things with the arrow keys and edit things.I have no problems with other apps like illustrator. I tried uninstalling and re-installing, deleting preferences, restarting my computer, but nothing is working.I really need to get my work donw and this is infuriating.Does anyone know what I can do?

Hi everyone!I'm working with an anchored object whose location depends on the spine of the book, like this:To make things easier I created an Object Style and it moves perfectly.The problem is that I need this object TO FLIP HORIZONTALLY every time it changes to a left or a right page, like this (it's literally a dotted line with a circle end shape):I tried to set this condition in Object Styles (corner options) and Anchored Object Options, but I don't find an way that would work automatically. I got to set everything manually, but this creates many mistakes on the workflow. I would be grateful if someone could share with me some ideas or creative solutions. Thanks in advance.  

Hello,  Is it possible to access library items from scripts? Really hope there is a way!  Many thanks  Smyth

Greetings!  I created a spread with A-Parent master pages, two pages facing.  On the Parent pages I placed page number markers on both pages, and the "A" marker appeared fine.  In Document Setup, my Start Page # is spec'd as 2, Facing Pages is checked.  Within the Pages panel, the numbers "2-3" appear below the facing page thumbnails.  On the actual spread in the workspace, the page numbers show as 1 and 2.  Any ideas?Thanx,Jay

Has there been an update that glitches artifacting of master page items? It's now Feb 26 2025 here.Is this now?Helllooooo????Thanks for any help.

UPDATEThe answer to this is actually in the thread I posted to, and the problem I had was solved by FRIdNE and I missed it! So, if you're trying to do this too, click on the link to the other thread and scroll down to FRIdNE's comments/solution. Although he's also posted a handy video in this thread!Okay, so I'm sure we are all aware of how ridiculous it is that anchored and inline objects go ABOVE text in indesign... because who want's to read the text anyways right? BUT I found a solution to this here:https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/anchored-object-behind-text/td-p/10781132 HOWEVER I need my graphic to extend outside the text box, on the left side, which apparently you can't do, even though you CAN do it on the right side. Go figure.  What I am basically trying to achieve is this: Except the banner envelope thing needs to be anchored to the text in some way so I'm not chasing down and repositioning 1000 title banners every time s

Hola. Buenas tardes. Según la página de Adobe se puede abrir un pdf en InDesign para poderlo editar. Yo no lo he conseguido aún. Lo intento desde la versión beta y desde la anterior.Si alguien sabe algo le agradecería que me lo diga.Saludos.

Another day, another new installation. InDesign is now crashing everytime I attempt to use the option hold and drag to duplicate an object... and I do that a lot.   

Hello to everyone! I need your valuable opinion about something. My client told that he needs to publish a 800pages book with physics and maths equations. BUT all the equations are eps format through Mathtype, all the texts are in Word and they will gine me also a pdf as a sample to see the layout. How does this sound? 

Hey gang.I just upgraded CC - including InDesign 2020. Now I cannot overwrite any pdf that I make. I can save one, just fine. Then if I have to make changes, InDesign won't let me save overtop of the preexisting pdf. And no, the file is not open. Thoughts?M
