Hi,Since few days Indesign stopped syncing my fonts.It  keep pushing the backgrouns tasks, but doesn't resolve and or update the font presente in the document.What can I do? 

Hello, I am trying to get some posters printed and the printing people are saying that my file is not set up the way that they need, I have exported the file as press quality and added bleed marks in my document 0.125 on all sides I have tried so many ways but it always exports with this white border- when I send it to the printing people they are saying thats not bleed it has a white border, can someone help me out with not having this white border when exporting from indesign to pdf print? ( I thought white border is okay since thats getting cut off, am I wrong)

Hi, I am trying to export an Indesign file inside the Indesign program into a regular pdf. However, everytime I attempt to do this even AFTER restarting my computer and/or the program, and updating the program to its latest update. It still won't let me and it shows me the pop up saying it is because "Version 4 ICC profiles were converted to version 2 ICC profiles during PDF exports." I'm pretty sure all the visual components in this file (such as boxes and tables) are in CMYK (specfically most of them are FOCOLTONE). Can anyone please help me solve this issue? Thank you.

It used to be possible to toggle Typographer Quotes on and off from the keyboard--on the Mac I think it was Shift-Cmd-Option-' .  That no longer works for me. Was it discontinued--intentionally or not? Or do I have a 'local' problem? Thanks.

Hi I don't have much space left on my C drive. Can I set InDesign to go automatically to the external hard drive rather than C drive? I am saving documents created to Creative Cloud instead of to my computer. But I understand InDesign is using my C drive for other purposes such as saving temporary files 

I'll try to keep this question short. I have several older workbooks that I am editing and reformating. They have been OCR scanned to PDF. The entire workbook is in outline form: Roman Numeral; A B C; 1 2 3; a b c; i ii iii; etc... I have created Paragraph styles of each of these hyarchies using numbered lists that I would like to replace the manually entered outline formats from the PDF. Currently, I'mm going line by line and sellecting the appropriate numbered list paragraph style.  It would save HOURS of time if I could find a way to do this automaticaly and all at once if that is not too much to ask.  Thanks ahead of time.

InDesign flipbooks are not loading on website using embed code. Will eventually load sporadically after refreshing page several times. Have also tried clearing cache but no difference.

Good morning everybody,I have a similar problem as https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/1-page-of-pasteboard-suddenly-extending-far-out/m-p/15138590#M609752, but in my case I cannot use the same strategy as the Pasteboard expands vertically and I would delete quite a few pages (see files attached).There are no objects floating somewhere around or on another layer.It's so frustrating, I have also tried IDML, new master page, new document, but nothing works 😞It's in three different places (out of 100 pages).Any idea? Thanks a lot.

"Is it possible to edit multiple QR codes simultaneously within an InDesign document?"

In the past--perhaps up to a year ago?--InDesign would remember the file type of your previous export and by default do the next one the same way. That's not true anymore: Export seems to randomly choose export as jpg or Print PDF. (I only use pdf print, never jpg.)  Is there a seting for this? A way to set the default for exporting to pdf print? ThanksJim

Hi, Dear Friends! I have a PAR style that, for some strange reason, while the chars ARE NOT SET to bold, they are showing up as bold/. So I manually made them regular, and there is no + char next to that style. SO I can not remodify the style. But I want all the instances NOT TO BE BOLD. WHat is going on here?   Thank you, and have a good day!Susan Flamingo

Hi all, Need help, my cursor is not on the object i am trying to move (Transform) its about 4-5 inches away when i select it. i have tried to replicate this in an image but when i screen grab my cursor disapears (imagine the makeshift triangle is my cursor). Program - Indesign 2025

Hi,I have a couple of Illustrator graphics linked in my InDesign file. However, I noticed that some of them don’t display an ICC profile, while others do. The printer mentioned that my file needs to be in Uncoated FOGRA 52. Why might this be happening? Should I worry about it, or does it not matter as long as the InDesign file is set up with the required color profile?Thank you!  

I have still another problem. When I add a page the text does not flow along, but the textframes simply change position. The same goes with the anchored pictures, which normally go to the inner side instead staying at the outer border.What can I do (also to keep the picture _always_ near the outer border?This problem is not new, I have always had it.Thank you for your patience,Marlene 

Bonjour. Depuis aujourd'hui, à cjhaque tentative de sauvegarde d'un PDF à partir d'un document InDesign, le document est produit mais le logiciel plante. Que dois-je faire ?

I seem to be having a problem with variable scope, I wrote the below script that works fine by itself, but when I add it my main document .search always results in -1, even when it's searching a string that should result in 0+. I found that moving it to the very top of my document it works fine, but moving it below even the first function with everything commented out it's wrong. I even tried moving that initial function to another document and it works fine. I'm guessing there's some sort of circular reference that's setting the search incorrectly, any pointers on helping find?  function idLegalLineCount() { var newAD = app.activeDocument; var lgCnt = []; //Loop through all the pages of the document for (var y = 0; y < newAD.pages.length; y++) { var aPg = newAD.pages[y]; var aFr = aPg.textFrames; var aMF = aPg.masterPageItems; var foundYou = false; //Look through Page Text Frames

Seit meinem Update auf InDesign 2024 funktioniert meine Pipette nicht mehr.Ich arbeite viel mit mathematischen Formeln, viele Zeichen müssen über die Zeichenformate speziell formatiert werden (kursiv, mathematische Sonderzeichen etc.). Mithilfe der Pipette ging das relativ zügig. Seit ich InDesign auf die Version 2024 (19.4) geupdatet habe, kann ich das gewüschte Zeichenformat zwar über die Pipette aufnehmen, aber nicht mehr an die anderen Zeichen abgeben. Es ist sehr mühselig und dauert extrem lang, nun jedes Zeichen einzeln auszuwählen und über das Zeichenformat-Fenster zu formatieren.

EDITED TO ADD: Just discovered that the scaling starts working when I increase the stroke width above 1pt. It even works at 1.01pt, but 1pt or less and it doesn't work. This seems like an odd restriction! Is there any way around this?Since the last InDesign update I am having a strange problem with the scaling of arrowheads on the end of strokes.When I add arrowheads to the end of a stroke, they do not respond to the scaling controls. They appear the same size no matter what scale I set. I can't find anything about this online, and not sure if there's just a new setting that would be controlling this? I have tried deleting the cache for InDesign, restarting, etc. but no change. I'm using InDesign CC 2019 on a 2011 Mac running High Sierra.Here is the stroke with both arrowheads at 100%:And here it is with one end set at 20%, but they are both still the same size:Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!{Renamed by MOD}

My company has big problems with the speed of indesign. The last version of indesign seems to has big problem with the speed and the stability. This release it is too slow to open a small file, and with the big file...someone want a coffee...and a lunch... And it has a lot of stability problem. I can't open the same file i open 2 month ago. The new Indesign crash when i open a file that the old version open in 2 seconds. I lost 2 weeks of work, i try to reeinstal the software but there is no solution. The new version is slow and instable

Cuando exporto a PDF interactivo, unos botones funcionan y otros no. Alguien sabe por qué pasa esto? Todos los botones los hago de la misma forma. La interactividad en EPUB funciona perfectamente. Los botones tienen marcadores y vinculan a destino.Lo he probado 30 veces y estoy desesperado. Alguien sabe por qué pasa esto?Gracias!!

I am currently using this GREP to select when there are certain words+Numbers or other characters in brackets.(\(|\[)(Bild|Fig|Pos|Item|Pic|Photo|Abb)\s*\.*\d*\+*\d*\.*\s*~e*(\)|\]) This expression isn't ideal because it won't work if there are numbers and plus symbols one after another multiple times (as seen in the screenshot below).Is there a GREP expression that finds open bracket + Word and then selects everything until it finds a closed bracket?

InDesign overloading CPU usage on basic tasks. Running the most recent version 20.0.1 and it has a major technical issue so don’t update until Adobe has a fix. Otherwise you wil be stuck waiting for files to open, save and do basic operations.  Any solutions welcome 🙂 

Hi, I have couple of headings starting from the new page.   I have created a "Heading" style and given before space of 32 points and after space of 16 points. Heading point size is 20 points and leading is 16 points. Both Heading and text are aligned to custom baseline using object style. I have also used inset values in object style.   Now the issue is when the heading is between the text, it works fine but the moment it starts in a new page, "Before space" does not work. I know that "Before space" will not work here BUT I need a 32 point space before Heading One and Heading Three. How do I achieve that without using a new Parent Page. I have made an alternative heading method also with Rule Above ON and keeping it in frame with offset but that does not work here.   Any suggestions? I have attached screenshot and idml file.   Thanks <Title renamed by MOD>

I know there's a work around for this but it's ridiculous that I still have to hold down certain keys for InDesign to open on my Macbook Pro. When I try to open, I see the logo but then nothing. We pay too much money to use this for it to not work.
