InDesign

Sorry, the previous post was a bit messy and off-topic.I sorted out my thoughts.I want to collect all the commonly used styles in a B document (assuming the path is "D:/B.indd")When I am working on A.indd, I need to obtain the "Paragraph Line Settings" for B1.I want to get such an interface.for exampleParagraph lineParagraph backgroundGrepThere are two issues that I cannot implement at present:How to access the style of B.indd without opening it.After selecting one of the items, can the content of that item be displayed on the right side.It's roughly like this: This is a piece of code copied from elsewhere./** * @name A的相邻段落样式B替换BNone *///call the makeDialog functionmakeDialog();//$.writeln("[" + psl + "]")function makeDialog() { //the dialog object var theDialog = app.dialogs.add({ name: "Test ", canCancel: true }); //note this would not get grouped styles with (theDialog.dialogColumns.add()) { staticTexts.add({ staticLabel: "source document:" }); staticTexts

Bonjour,Je dois réaliser un agenda 1 jour par page. Quel script puis-je utiliser car calendar wizard ne propose pas de solution pour daily planner?

we have equations created in mathtype using open type fonts ‘ArnoPro-Regular’ and ‘STIXGeneral-Regular’ where equation symbols such as beta are correct in mathtype eps. When it is placed in InDesign the symbols are collapsed even though the fonts are present in the system. What could be the issue when palcing the mathtype eps image in InDesign? How to overcome the solution? The client’s requirement is to use only these fonts. Coorect equation:Same equation how it appears in InDesign:Entire equation is collapsed in InDesignWhen checking the fonts panel in InDesign: it shows not embedded.  

When using an existing table on indesign the text is black (how i want it) but when adding columns and rows onto this - they are blue text with an underline.How do i make it so it is the same text as above. 

Hi-- I autoflowed text from Word and it worked perfect for all but the last 10 or so pages, where it just stopped. After troubleshooting, it seems like my hyphenation (off) settings on my paragraph style are what is causing the text to not show. Any ideas or experience with this issue? I tried copy and pasting the missing text, but when I apply my paragraph style it disappears. I tried creating a new paragraph style, but once I turned off hyphenation it disappeared again. Any advice is greatly apprecaiated. Thank you!

I'm trying to export an InDesign file I have previously worked on other versions, but this error prompts: "Failed to export the PDF file.""Possible cause of failure is present on spread with page number "5"." I have deleted the spread mentioned in the error, removed all hyperlinks, verified that the document has no errors, and tried to export the file in batches, but nothing is working. For reference: I'm using macOS Monterey.  

Hi there, I've searched the community and the web for this glitch and can't find it. unfortunately the latest updated to both software and OS haven't fixed this.Basically, if I leave my design for a little bit, and then come back to it (say after a meeting)I find that as soon as I tap the page with my cursor – the entire layout (all pages) disappear. Everything else is still present including my pages column on the right. But the only thing that seems to bring it back is saving and restarting the programme which obvs isn't convenient.Anyone else experienced this and/or has a fix?Many thanksCarolyh

Bonjour.J’ai un problème avec un export PDF interactif depuis InDesign.Contexte :J’importe des PDF dans InDesign. Je les recadre dans des blocs afin de n’afficher qu’une partie du contenu. Ensuite j’exporte en Adobe PDF interactif. Problème : dans le PDF exporté :la recherche texte trouve du contenu (texte) qui n’est pas visible (voir photos jointes) Acrobat surligne parfois du “vide”, on dirait que le texte situé hors du recadrage reste présent dans la structure du PDF.J’ai compris que : le recadrage InDesign est seulement visuel, le contenu complet du PDF importé semble rester embarqué dans le PDF interactif exporté.Contraintes :Je ne peux pas : aplatir le PDF, convertir en image, ni “imprimer en PDF”, car j’ai besoin de conserver : les liens interactifs, la qualité vectorielle, et le texte recherchable. Je veux pouvoir recherche du texte mais seulement dans mes blocs recadrés et pas en dehors   Question :Existe-t-il une méthode pour  supprimer réellement le contenu hors recadrage de

I produce monthly magazines and at the end of every month I send my files to the printer and when the magazines come back printed I package the files and go to publish online I then copy and paste the link that throws up up and create a link to that  URL on my website behind an image of the cover of each magazine, job done. I have been working on a separate project of a magazine for a charity carnival and have been trying to get the magazine printed with the publish online link already in it but I'm finding that very difficult because if I create a link and a QR code to the published magazine I then have to try and add that link to the printed page before it gets printed sounds odd  but I've been going dizzy trying to solve this one. All I want to achieve is have the magazine printed with the link to Adobe Portal Publish online.  Anybody got any solutions?

I am translating a document from English to Hebrew.  I need to substitute the text and flip some objects / pages.  When i type the hebrew text in Story, it looks correct.  But when i Close Story, on the actual page, the letters appear LTR instead of RTl.

Bonjour à tous,Je me permets de vous contacter pour un problème que je n’arrive pas à solutionner depuis pas mal de temps et qui me fait perdre pas mal de temps.Les photos de mon document sont toutes converties avec le profil PSO Uncoated ISO12647, cependant dans les informations InDesign, il m’affiche le profil Coated FOGRA 39 (ISO 12647-2:2004), il n’affiche pas le bon profil incorporé à la photo et cela malgré même les réglages que j’ai effectué dans “couleurs” (Edition > Couleurs…). Quelqu’un saurait-il m’aider à résoudre ce problème ?Par avance merci. :)  

I need to basically tag some text, to associate it with a particular issue. I want to change its color, and that’s all. I can find no method to mark text in a searchable way without overriding all of its characteristics.We don’t use character styles anywhere in our documents, so this would be a safe way to do so. But how do you clear any characteristic from a character style that you don’t want to set?

Hi,My customer made comments on documument, which I can see both, at assets.adobe.com preview as well as in indesign, however pins are visible at online version only.  How to fix it?Please, help. Michal

After I imported my story from a docx file, the TOC I had in Libre somehow turned to text and now I want to delete it but it won't delete.I have used ChatGPT to help and it has suggest many things but nothing I do gets rid of those 5 pages which were the original TOC but I think are are now text added to the story..What is the best way for me to proceed to get rid of it so I can create a proper TOC.Thank you

We get this all the time. InDesign will gripe about a few characters in a document. So you can click on the error, see that yes once again Times Roman is applied to some invisible character, and then change the character to match the rest of the document.But this isn’t enough. Now InDesign will complain about that font for those characters, even though it’s obviously installed and used for tens of thousands of other characters in the document.Anybody have a workaround for this defect?Thanks! 

Linking an image in InDesign 2026 and exporting it as a tagged PDF generates an unpleasant Tag structure.The structure now is:<Figure>--<Link>----OBJR--ContentTags inside of <Figure> will normally ignored by any assistive technology. So the Link will not be present to the end user.This is a change to InDesign 2025 and before, where the tagging was properly:< Link>--OBJR--<Figure>----Content This new behavior violates WCAG guidelines and makes the link tagging inaccessible to screen reader users. 

Hi Guys, I have tried to pass colon attribute to evaluateXPathExpression but not working please help me. Attributes:  @xml:id, @aid:pstyle var doc = app.activeDocument;var rootElement = doc.xmlElements[0];var xPathQuery = "//section[@role and @xml:id and @ele-id]";var matchedElements = rootElement.evaluateXPathExpression(xPathQuery);if (matchedElements.length > 0) {        for (var i = 0; i < matchedElements.length; i++) {        var productNode = matchedElements[i];                        var priceNodes = productNode.evaluateXPathExpression("title[@ele-id and @aid:pstyle]");                if (priceNodes.length > 0) {            alert("Section " + (i + 1) + " Title: " + priceNodes[0].contents);        }    }} else {    alert("No Product elements found in the XML structure.");}

Hello,We are currently working on a file translated into Burmese (Myanmar) that requires accessibility remediation for screen readers.The files are being processed in Adobe InDesign 2026. The translated text was copied from a Word file after first being pasted into Notepad to remove any potential hidden formatting or encoding characters.The following settings and checks have already been completed:A Unicode font that fully supports Burmese characters is being used. World-Ready Paragraph Composer is enabled. The correct language is assigned at text level. Legacy Text Shaping for Adobe World-Ready Composer is enabled. The file is being exported as a tagged PDF with the correct document language assigned.Despite all these settings being correctly applied, Acrobat’s accessibility checker continues to report a character encoding error for the Burmese text. Could you please advise if Burmese (Myanmar) has any known limitations with Acrobat accessibility validation, or if there are additional

Hi everyone,I'm from Germany and thus have the German CC version.Have massive performance problems on all our PC/Win devices with InDesign.Of course I've already searched for a solution by myself and have already done the standard tasks - without any positive effect. That's why I write here, fervently hoping for a good and sensible answer instead of just standard copy & paste answers...1st I started with the preferences - and found nothing. The official Adobe post says:https://helpx.adobe.com/de/indesign/using/gpu_performance.html^^But although it's title is general it's written Mac specific. I actually have NO "GPU Performance" entry in the preferences list in InDesign (while in Illustrator and Photoshop I have that for years).I also have NO animated zoom as described in the article and it's all dead slow, so I'm sure I'm in CPU mode. Why does GPU work in the complete graphics and video apps but NOT in InDesign?Have a NVIDIA RTX Studio certified notebook with a RTX 3050 Mobile and

Bonjour, je viens de tester la mise à jour InDesign 21.3 sur Windows 11. J’ai une petite fenêtre rouge en bas d’écran qui me demande de tenir Windows à jour. Je ne peux pas fermer cette fenêtre rouge. Et comme je suis dans une grande entreprise, je n’ai pas la possibilité d’intervenir sur Windows, c’est une version imposée par l’entreprise et sécurisée. Je ne peux pas non plus quitter InDesign qui me dit qu’il y a une tâche en arrière plan, mais si j’ouvre la fenêtre “tâches en arrière plan” ,il n’y a rien. Je viens donc de revenir à la version 21.2 qui fonctionne sans problème. Une solution ?

I’m using the font “36 days ago BRK” that is free to use for any purpose, yet InDesign insists on replacing it as i export my PDF because of “licensing issues”. I’m not using Adobe Fonts, I simply downloaded a free-use font off the internet. I don’t want to start using Adobe Fonts or find another font to replace it. What’s really annoying is that it used to work on older versions. I don’t know why this is an issue now.

Since Indesign version 2025 all the time a whole textblock suddenly disappears. It still exists, but is not shown.  It happens in different situations: when i scroll, want to start typing, etc. I already switched of the gpu-modus, but that does not help.I am using Windows 10 on a Imac 4K intel core I5.

Tenemos un cliente que todavía usa Adobe Indesign 2021 (16.x), como la versión está descatalogada no se puede descargar desde la creative cloud, y por migración de pc, se ha perdido la aplicación y ahora no se puede instalar.

Hallo :) Ich arbeite gerade an meinem Portfolio und möchte ein Bilder-Karussell im PDF einbinden. Beim Klick auf einen Pfeil soll das nächste Bild erscheinen, ohne dass eine neue Seite geladen wird (also keine Sprungmarken). Bisher habe ich dafür den Objektstatus und Schaltflächen mit entsprechender Funktion genutzt. In der InDesign-Vorschau funktioniert das auch aber leider beim Export nicht mehr. Die Schaltflächen werden zwar angezeigt aber funktionieren nicht. Ich arbeite mit der neusten Version von InDesign und auch von Acrobat. Ich habe auch darauf geachtet, dass ich als interaktives PDF exportiere aber leider klappt es nicht. Ich befürchte, dass diese Funktionen nicht mehr unterstützt werden aber vielleicht hat ja jemand einen Tipp oder eine Idee, wie ich den Slider anders umsetzten könnte. Danke schonmal und liebe GrüßeLena 😊

HiI am using Adobe Indesign 2026 and recently discovered that none of my documents open when clicked on in the Home screen. I tried clearing up space on my computer (over a GB of storage was freed), but that didn’t solve the problem. When I click on the desired files in my Finder window, nothing happens either.Can anyone help me troubleshoot this issue?Thanks in advance,Joey
