InDesign

InDesign is not showing a majority of the review annotations. I have it updated to the latest version (16.0) and I have preview mode turned off. It is consistently not showing on the web browser and desktop software. On the document, I have comments from the same day from the same user showing inconsistently. Mainly it isn't showing where text has been struck-through or highlighted, but it shows where shapes were drawn just fine. The comments still show on the side but it doesn't show where the annotation is when I click on the comment, and I can't see the annotations after manually scanning the text.

Hello everyone,when I press the "space bar" key instead of having a space in my text, a window opens to save my document.I feel like a keyboard shortcut is built in, I don’t know why. Anyone else has the same problem?Thank youPierre

I have brand-new Mac mini M4 and InDesign 2025Everything is brand new. New install now old stuff around. Everything runs blazing fast, except for InDesign.Pretty much every Interaction has a 1-second lag.Selecting a Text Field - 1sec lagSelecting image - 1sec lagSwitching from another Window to InDesign - 1sec lag What to do? Maybe the M4 can run Crysis… but can it run InDesign? Doesn't look like it. 

Hi! I have designed my infographics in the Ai, but when place them into Indesign, all texts disppear from the graphics. What should I do to make them appear in the graphics?

I'm trying to create an accessible PDF. I've tagged my elements in InDesign using styles. I've set the order of my content in the Articles panel. When I export my file to PDF, why is the reading order not correct? Is there a way to set the reading order of the PDF I create from within InDesign? Or do I have to redo the reading order within Acrobat every time I make a PDF?

Hi, could somebody please explain why an svg created in illustrator with responsive unticked on export imports into indesign just fine (no margin), but when created with responsive ticked adds a margin around the image. I'm happy to save them with responsive unticked, but thought it might be better to create one responsive svg that I can use in my InDesign documents and online at varying sizes. ThanksDaniel

Bonjour j'aimerai connaitre la formule grep pour remplacer une espace normale par une espace insécable après des sujets ou des déterminants. C'est à dire que j'ai plein de paragraphe ou la ligne se termine par "elle", "au" "du" ou "sur" et j'aimerai automatiser pour que ces mots aillent à la ligne pour que la lecture soit plus facile. Help !

macOS 15.2, InDesign 20.0.1   When I generate or update a TOC there is a roughly 7 in 10 chance InDesign 2025 will crash. This happens with multiple documents and has been happening consistently with every document since the release of 20.0 in October. I initially thought it was because I was using ID '25 on macOS Ventura, but it's still happening with existing and new documents since updating my Mac to Sequoia. Additionally, the same files moved to other computers (Windows 10, for example) also crash there when generating, updating TOCs. Happens whether the documents in question are standalone or booked, with or without other TOCs in same document, with and without other documents opened. No problems with ID '22, '23, or '24 on the same computer, with the same content in new documents or with the pre-existing documents that had pre-25 file versions. I had hoped that all those literally more than 100 automatic bug reports would have had Adobe fix the problem or reach out to me f

I'm having issues with InDesign 2025. After upgrading, many of the fonts I previously downloaded in InDesign 2024 are missing. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the software, but the fonts are still not available.

Hi, I've created a simple script that will apply some Hyphenation and Justification Settings but I'm having trouble accessing that slider from Hyphenation Settings. Does anyone know how to set a value for it?Thanks in advance. 

Hi guys, I am very new, and am trying to get ANY script to run inside of inDesign. My first script looks like this://@target indesign //@targetengine "session" (function() { if (typeof app === "undefined") { return; } try { var doc = app.documents.add(); with(doc.documentPreferences) { pageSize = "a4"; facingPages = false; } var textFrame = doc.pages[0].textFrames.add(); textFrame.geometricBounds = [50, 50, 500, 500]; textFrame.contents = "my content"; var file = new File("~/Desktop/Generated_Document_1738124549947.indd"); doc.save(file); } catch(error) { if (typeof alert !== "undefined") { alert("Error: " + error); } } })();  when i try to run this litterally nothing happens at all.Then i tried a "hello world" and get the following: that code was this://@target indesign (function runNow() { try { if (typeof app === "undefined") { throw new Error("InDesign is not available."); } var doc = app.documents.add();

As part of a larger script, I need to group a few preselected objects. Can't figure out what i'm doing wrong. Here's a snippet:  -- Select the image and caption, group themset selection to {myRectangle, captionFrame}set myGroup to group {myRectangle, captionFrame} They get selected fine, but the group doesn't work: error "Adobe InDesign 2025 got an error: Can’t get group {rectangle id 6639 of spread id 218 of document id 1, text frame id 6665 of spread id 218 of document id 1}." number -1728 from group {rectangle id 6639 of spread id 218 of document id 1, text frame id 6665 of spread id 218 of document id 1} Any ideas? 

Hi all! I have a document with many pages. And links to pages that go back and forth. I have the page number "1" starting on what is actually page 4... because the first page is the cover, and the next two pages are the table of contents. I got all the links going to the right pages. What is NOT working is this:Those first three pages.... they are showing up on the PDF as pages [11], [12] and [13]. I did try to make those first pages their own numbered section. But I have no idea why they start at 11, 12 and 13 instead of 1, 2 and 3 (or i, ii, iii). I wouldn't care... except when I export it as a PDF, the PDF page numbers are showing up as  [11], [12] and [13]. So that's not good. I'm attaching a screenshot of the page thumbnail panel... so you can see what I'm talking about. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! 

I work with a newspaper editorial team that currently uses synching to share assets to produce our weekly publication. In a nutshell our process is: We use InCopy to import text into InDesign where our designer adds images from Bridge and then creates a review document in InDesign for proofing the layout before going to press. What are your suggestions to adjust our workflow if we don’t have synching capabilities? Will the InDesign Review pdf be affected by the remove of synching?

Hello Community,  I'm using indesign to print a small book of color photography. Typically when I print with Photoshop, I first select "Photoshop manages colors" then I select the .icc profile of the paper I'm using, in this case Canson Rag Duo.  I open my print dialogue to select my media type, The color matching section is usually grayed out, like this screenshot: However, in Indesign, when I go to the same dialogue box in InDesign, I'm able to select the .icc profile inside here as well.That wouldn't seem to be a problem, except when go to Print > Print Settings >  Color Management, I'm prompted to choose the .icc profile again  So i think what is happening is that the profile might be getting applied twice? Maybe I'm wrong and it's a redundancy that does nothing to the color, but my color is off. Can anyone advise if I can (or should) turn off one of the two .icc profiles? Thank you for your help

Hello!I need to change all text set in non-black colours to 100% black. There are hundreds of pages, but not all text colours have been added to the swatches. Is there a way to do this, either through find-and-change or a script? Please help!

Hi,I’m currently working with an InDesign Asset Library file provided by a client, which contains a text frame with strokes on three sides (bottom, left, and right). I need to modify the individual side strokes—specifically, I want to add a stroke on the top while removing the stroke at the bottom. I’ve spent hours trying to figure out how to make this change and haven’t had any success. My team, who also received this file, is unfamiliar with the original settings as it was provided by the client.Has anyone encountered this issue or can guide me on how to modify the individual strokes effectively?  

Today, i saw a mail from adobe saying that my price for indesign will increase of 30% next month ! From 237€ to 314€ ! That is totally crasy and unacceptable.I will probable return to software less expensive but really efficient like product afinity publisher.Adobe, if you lose customer, it would be only your responsability. 

Hi everyone,unfortunately I have been experiencing some significant slowdown with a couple of Adobe fonts on InDesign, that lately (on InDesign 2025) are even causing the app to stuck with no chance to end working.The fonts involved are Canvas Inline and Crayonize. I have tried to disable any font preview already but with no luck. Any idea on how to solve? I have to use both of these fonts...I am using iOS Sequoia 15.2 on MacBook Pro M2 - 16 GB RAM. Thank you in advance,M.

Hi,I'd like to know if there's a way to resize shapes and text frames while maintaining a fixed centre point in InDesign? Illustrator allows you to resize in this way by holding down the Alt key while dragging the objects handles. Any tips on how to do something similar would be gratefully received.Many thanks,Tom

My indesign form has lots of checkboxes in a shape that I have selected in the library of different checkboxes. Now I want to change their appearance, but I don't want to remove and insert new boxes. I simply want to change the already existing check boxes to another look (also from the library). I don't understand how! In theory, I could just click on a different box selection. But no.Help, anyone?

Is there a way to print non-printing characters like when we enable "Invisibles", I want that to be printed too on the paper or PDF.Thanks
