InDesign

I'm working on a book and am using vertical justification on all pages BUT I want the last page of a paragraph to use align top. Is there any way to set that within stylesheets?

Stop me if you've heard this one before! I need to convert 30 or so Pagemaker files. (Actually just need them exported as TIFs or JPGs - don't need to edit them.)I've tried converting with numerous online file converters - but the fonts are always messed up, ruining the whole design.Maybe that will always be the case? Or would they render perfectly with Indesign CSx?Anyone running a verson of CS who could help please?I've attached an example - with the .P65 extension changed to .docBTW... bearly bought 2nd-hand from eBay earlier, then read about Adobe stopping activation. Eek.I'm a CC PS/LR subscriber, FWIW.

I have data consists of languages Hindi and English and I am not able to merge that data into indesign even if I put the source of the data as .csv or .txt. I have tried everything. Even coverted csv to UTF-16, but nothing seems to works. I am also using a versatile font family that works for both hindi and english, i.e, MUKTA. Indesign doesn't seem to process hindi language whereas I am having no problem writing them all individually. 

I see others have had the problem in the past, but I'm not seeing a solution.When I share my Indesign publish online link to Facebook, the thumbnail of the first page doesn't show. It's just blank. I tried Facebook debugger and it gave me this error message:"Invalid Image Content Type: Provided og:image URL, https://indd.adobe.com/view/publication/12a56d22-aa20-4b1b-8bd0-538304b1457c/1/Thumbnails/Share/share.png could not be processed as an image because it has an invalid content type." (Uploading my own thumbnail image doesn't resolve the problem, either). Using Indesign 19 on Windows 11 x64. Latest chrome browser.   

I had to downgrade my version of inDesign to 18.5 (and run in Rosetta) to run a pluggin supplied by my Client. Now that is installed can I download the lastest version 20.0 and run both version on my Mac (M1)? Any help welcome 🙂

Hello everyone. I'm experiencing a problem with InDesign. I want to copy and paste text from one page to another, often copying the entire existing page. However, when I scroll through the page, there are always small but noticeable differences (and I'm talking about text that I've copied, so it should be the same). For example, the line spacing is slightly different, or the text appears darker than it should be. How can I resolve this issue?

Hi Community, thanks in advance for your help!  Problem trying to solve: I have engineering spec sheets with up to 7 "list thread levels." The engineers formated the information in Word. We are redesigning the info in InDesign and I am looking for an easy way to streamline this workflow without having to manually apply paragraph bullet styles to each part of the document once it's in ID. 1) Is XML a good use case for this? 2) Any tips to preserve Word formatting when placing text into InDesign3) Anything I'm not aware of, or thinking of that would help -- I'm sure this has been solved before, thanks so much!AE

For the first time we recently received a color settings file from a client along with PDF export settings. When using a preset that doesn't match the current color settings file the export dialog displays this in the summary: Is there a way to detect this mismatch with a script?

Is it good practice to copy and paste graphics from illustrator into indesign?

 I shared a indesign file and I a CCLibrary with a lot of graphics and placed them and they are linked on my account. However, when I shared the file and CCLibrary, the shared account can recognise that the graphics are (supposed to be) linked but it has an error that is not actually linking the graphics.  Is there a way to auto link all of the graphics from the shared CClibrary? Or will she have to manually relink the graphics? Thank you!

hello,I just did a complete "clean up" and reinstalled creative cloud, to fix some issues, those issues got  fixed, but now I have different problem - indesign keeps quitting on me.I am wondering if there is enough space on my computer. Please find a screenshot of available space and a screenshare. 

I am trying to figure out how we can create indesign files based on DITA xml files. I have looked at several options where one uses a dita plugin or indesigns own xml capabilities, but the plugin from DITA seems pretty outdated and I am uncertain as to whether InDesigns xml is capable of working with DITA xml.I believe I am looking for some inspiration as to how one could make this kind of "conversion" work?

I ask you to help in a solution, it is not clear why the InDesign is freezing when performing the script from the UXP plugin, not at every start, but once. It can perform several functions several times well, and then it freezes on the same functions ...After some time, such an error appears:<system platform="Windows 11 Pro" osversion="11.0" osbuild="22621" applicationlanguage="en-us" userlanguage="ru-RU" oslanguage="en-US" ram="16104" machine="13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-13500H" model="Intel64 Family 6 Model 186 Stepping 2" cpuCount="16" cpuType="8664" cpuFreq="3187 MHz" processorArchitecture="9"/><gpu><gpuinfo availability="Running/Full Power" adapterCompatibility="Intel Corporation" adapterRAM="1024 MB" caption="Intel(R) UHD Graphics" description="Intel(R) UHD Graphics" driverDate="20230711000000.000000-000" driverVersion="31.0.101.4575" videoModeDescription="1920 x 1080 x 4294967296 colors" pnpDeviceID="PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A720&SUBSYS_01571558&

    Hey Leute, Ich versuche gerade eine Bewerbung für mich zu gestalten und wollte dabei eine Interavtive PDF machen. Dabei habe ich Schaltflächen angelegt. Diese funktionieren auf allen Seiten außer auf der 1. Seite. Ich hab kein Plan was das Problem ist. Wenn ich es in der Vorschau Öffne funktioniert alles. Aber sobald ich es Exportiere geht nur die 1 Seite nicht. Die Rolloveranimation funktioniert allerdings einwandfrei? Nur das Weiterleiten auf die jeweilige Seite geht nicht. Ich hab euch mal dazu ein Bild meiner jeweiligen Einstellung dazugepackt. Pls Help me❤️ 

To keep everything consistent color-wise I want to create documents in Indesign that are 100% RGB without a trace of CMYK, because it is hard to maintains similar colors from other applications. We only work with digital pdf:s that will never be printed, everything we do is web delivery and this will never ever change. But under proof colors it seems to always go back to CMYK no matter how many times I change to SRGB... Is there a way to completely discard of everything CMYK in Indesign? From scratch I always choose web and RGB in every color setting I can find, but HEX-codes still yield slightly different colors between Photoshop and InDesign. A common workflow is using downloadable pdf:s from Freepik that I want to fully convert to RGB, but this behaviour is present even if I create documents from scratch... I want our signature blue color to be identical on our web page, our pdf:s and every other graphic we create... 

Hello community,I have one indesign file with a few thousand headings and I created the automatic TOC with this headings.So far everything is perfect.Now I should also create the link that when you click on any heading inside the file it takes you to the corresponding entry in the TOC (not to the first page of the TOC but to the page that contains that heading).I know that it can be done manually but since there are a few thousand headings I was wondering if you know of any script that can solve this problem.Thanks in advanceMarko

 Hello, Ive got this preexisting InDesign table, and I was wondering if I could link a table from Excel into those three free columns on the right? When I try to place it as unformatted text, it just all goes into the first cell. Is this possible or do I need to find a workaround? Thanks!  

Could someone help me with this error? I have already updated the ToC not to use Text Anchors ... I have removed and recreated the ToC ... same error ... I have tried with checking the "make text anchor in paragraph" option but it then gives the same error, and every time I need to rebuild my custom bookmarks ... What can I do? How can I find what are the "offending" text anchors that are not found? I tried to make a copy of the INDD, remove the TOC and export, which gave no error. Recreating the TOC and exporting to EPUB gave the same error ... 

Hello,A month ago I worked on an arabic language project in illustrator. Today I opened indesign and it looks like it's messed up here. I do not want to work in arabic anymore - either in illusrator or indesign.I'd like to restore the settings to factory settings. I uninstalled the entire suite and installed again, and yet it's all messed up. Please find attached a screenshot on what it looks like when I try to place a file. It seems like it wants to place it arabic way - right to left. also included is indesign file.I am about to lose my mind. Kindly help!

Seit längerem ist mein Indesign extrem langsam. Jeder Klick oder Bewegung dreht es 5-10 Sekunden. Ich habe schon vieles Versucht nichts hilft. Danke 

Acabo de cambiar a Indesign 2025. Las fotos (archivos de Photoshop en blanco y negro) aparecen más claras, más palidas. Quiero que sigan como antes. Que puedo hacer?

I'm making a report with a long references section full of hyperlinks. On opening the file the next day and exporting it to interactive PDF, almost half of the URLs had been shortened (they are quite long). I put the full URLs in but somehow they got shortened – not sure why this is happening? Never had this problem in earlier versions of indesign 

Hi, I'm working on my first book layout and dont have experience in this area. What are some key questions I should ask the print service?The book is nonfiction and will be created in InDesign. I'll also be designing graphics for the book—are there any specific questions I should ask regarding that as well?Thank you so much for your help!

Can you please add add a function to skip pages when auto numbering? When working on a large file with tabs, it's very time consuming and easy to make errors when you have to start a new section after each tab in order to keep the numbers consecutive. I would love to be able to just click on the tab pages to skip numbering.Thank you.

I design a magazine and I need to share files with someone. She wants me to package everything but other than fonts if I give her the files with the linked assests won't they stay linked when she opens the file.
