InDesign

i want to make a book where it bond by the top and bottom rather than bound by the spine. Where do i go to make this edit? I would also like to view it vertical instead of horizontaly as existing.  

Is there a limit on how long the found GREP result can be??     For shorter blocks of text - it will select all lines:     If I start removing some words from the first block - it will select bigger part - more paragraph(s)??   Also, what should be the GREP query to find everything in between:   REFERENCES ... ... CHAPTER   but excluding those words - so the found result will be like on the 2nd screenshot.   Because, even something like this doesn't work??     Nor this:         <Title renamed by MOD>  

Recently I made an interactive food menu for a client, and it was all fine and it's interactive, however!when it's being used the tools such as draw and other tools are visible, how can I use the pdf without showing anything but the pdf, i don't want the overlays or anything to show when using the pdf.

Ever since InDesign updated from version 19.5 to version 20, the current page number marker on my master pages will not sync. Now, every document in my book just starts from page 1. So, in other words, every chapter starts over at page 1. Please help. I've included a screen grab of my problem. You'll see that the page numbers on the actual document don't match the page numbers indicated in the pages window or in the book window. I've redone the marker in the master pages and resynced, but no dice...     <Title renamed by MOD>

As shown in the above image I have an empty space between "Social - group interaction" and "Emotional - books, dramatic play". I am unable to select it. I have activated show hidden characters and I still cannot see or select the object (if there is one at all). When I backspace the emotional dot point it simply jumps over the blank space to the end of the previous line of text. I am wanting to remove this empty space so the dot points flow from one to the next with equal spacing. Kind Regards, Dave.

I am unable to update to InDesign 20.0.I click on the "Update" button, and nothing happens. The Creative Cloud window has a box checked that says, "Works with this device". Any suggestions?     <Title renamed by MOD>

Please help! I have exported my InDesign file as a pdf document and I am trying to tag with accessibility tags... I have automatically added tags and now in the process of fixing the tagging - but every time I save it, it will either revert back to old, removes tags, moves them around or makes them blank! This is a client project and I am in big strife if I cannot get this to work. When looking at the reading order, it is also all out of wack and I cannot get it to match the tag list order... which may be part of the issue... help!  I keep fixing it and it keeps changing.    <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi Team Indesign has updated itself over the weekend to 19.0. I am running Windows 10 Enterprise Version 22H2. Since then the  Control Z  keyboard short cut will not work. When I go to Edit > Undo from the top menu it is grayed out. Also the when resizing a text box the content will not flow to the new size or shape of the box until I click inside the text box. Is there an update or work around for these issues / bugs It was all working fine on friday before the update. Thanks Rod

I know there are dozens of threads on this, I've read them all, and I still am having this extremely frustrating issue with Acrobat consistently washing out my colors. Even if the colors are CMYK compatible, it's desaturating them. I'm putting PSDs into InDesign. Transparency Blend Mode set to RGB to preview correctly. Exporting as a PDF to view in Acrobat. Setting an RGB destination profile does nothing to retain my colors. Everything looks fine in Mac 'Preview' application, but Acrobat can't seem to retain any of the proper colors. This is turning a simple 5 minute task into hours of tweaking at least once a month. I'd love if any one can offer a sureproof solution.

Hi Everyone, I need your support in adding a vertical scrollbar to my custom palette for InDesign. The current palette is growing as I add a new button to it. so I want two vertical scroll bars, one for the 'Custom Checks' and the other for the 'Custom Fixes'. Here's my code:If easily doable, can we also reduce the margins between the buttons. Thanks, in advance,M #targetengine 'customChecksAndFixes' // Create the panel window var myWindow = new Window('palette', "Checks & Fixes - InDesign, v5.0", undefined, { resizeable: true }); // Add here a message "Please Save Your File Before Running a Script!" var messageText = myWindow.add('statictext', undefined, "Save Your File Before Clicking a Button..."); messageText.alignment = 'center'; // Add buttons to the panel myWindow.alignChildren = 'column'; myWindow.alignChildren = 'left'; // ************************************************ CUSTOM CHECKS – B U T T O N S var checkFonts = myWindow.add('button', undefined, '

I have a template file that contains 5 pages. There are text frames on each page. The first page - the first text frame is for the TITLE. The rest of the text frames I would call them NOTATION text frames that are linked.My problem is as follows: I need a script when I type with my font in NOTATION text frames - so that the script makes new text frames under the NOTATION text frames.  I'm going to call this group of new text frames LYRICS text frames.  The problem is that I want the syllables in the text frames LYRICS to be exactly below each character that will be in the text frames NOTATION And to be centered under each character to which they belong from text frames NOTATION For now, I'm doing this job manually and that job consumes so much time. I tried already with ChatGPT but without solution. 2 I had the idea that when I write in first row signs for notation, the script will make for each sign a separate text frame so later the script can make new t

I work with the latest CC (you might find all details in the crash report). I have an InDesign file with an InCopy story. When I try to update the files within the story InDesign crashes. No matter if I do it with only one or all files within the story. I tried to de-link all files and export again for InCopy. But the result is the same.The InDesign and InCopy files are saved on our office server which I access from home via VPN.Please find the crash report attached.I  had the same problems, too with another file some weeks ago. Luckily we were at the very end of the project and I could just de-link the InCopy files and we've made the last small edits directly in InDesign.But this time the project is in full run and I see no chance to get around this issue. And we need to get this done very soon. Crash report<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE AdobeCrashReport SYSTEM "AdobeCrashReporter.dtd"> <crashreport serviceVersion="4.7.0" clientVersion="4.7.0" applicationNa

Almost everytime I use InDesign, my shortcuts will stop working. Whether it's V, or my option + drag to duplicate, or resizing with shift.  I've looked at numerous posts and haven't found a resolution.  Any suggestions?

Hallo Community, ich habe plötzlich alle Bilder in meinem Inhaltsverzeichnis, welche nicht dort sein sollten.Die Bilder sind mit einem Text (Absatzformat Abbildung) gruppiert. Dieses Absatzformat ist jedoch nicht im Inhaltsverzeichnis hinterlegt. Wie kann das sein und hat jemand eine Lösung?Liebe Grüße!

Hello in the screenshots I added to this post I'm trying to put a picture into the different frames and to do that I inserted everything into a compound path but when I'm trying to release the compound path to move the frames it removes everything except one frame as I showed in my image examples. Does anybody know how to do what I'm trying to do

Isn't there a way to convert, per example in my case, Adobe CC files into IDML for my CS6 softwares ? I even have a IDML file done on another account so I could open it in my CS6 account wich I cannot open at all even if its an IDML. And I can open this exact IDML on an cc account.It's really not helpful and really badly done to face these issues. It really is an handicap.[moderator changed Adobe to Indesign in the title]

When using presentation mode, is there a way to not have your content run up into the notch area? If your content is tall enough, it will run all the way to the top of the screen and have a big ol' notch cut out of it, when viewing in Presentation mode. Any way to tell InDesign, "hey, just push everything down below that bloddy notch, please." ?     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi,  After the latest update for InDesign, I have issues with JosefinSans-Variable Font displaying in  very weird way, and not at all what it should look like.  It shows up differently in PDF form as well, with irregular spacings and does not look the way it should.     Basically it is the "regular", "medium" and "bold" fonts that are acting up. Please see screenshot attached.  What can I do to fix this? I am literally pulling out my hair at this stage.   Regards Ellen     <Title renamed by MOD>

What is the purpose of the note tool?

How do you swap links between two images that are already in a document? If I click on Relink, it takes me to Windows Explorer where I then have to select the image to replace the old one with.  But if that image is already on another page, why can't I link to it from the Links panel? Why can't I drag it to the frame from there?

I am struggling with a lingering visual difference between RGB elements in InDesign vs Photohop.Here is the download link if you are interested :Both RGB and CMYK.zip And here are two screen captures that document the visual difference.   First the "Print mode" version : And now, the "Web mode" version : To me, InDesign "correctly" renders the colors on screen when Transparency Blend Space is set to RGB.But, for the life of me, I can't understand why InDesign can't corretly render the colors when Transparency Blend space is set to CMYK?It's as though, the RGB elements created in InDesign were rendered differently than those elements employing the same RGB color space and blending mode in Photoshop?   I tried pushing the analysis further, by exporting to PDF : when the PDF is exported with no color conversion, the colors continue to appear "mismatched" in the PDF. But when the PDF is exported to RGB, the colors appear correct. I hate to bring this problem up again but it was

I'm struggling to understand this issue. I've created a button to close an interactive layer. I have my button actions listed as Animation with the option set to reverse. I have a second action listed as the Show/Hide Buttons and Forms. This visability is set to Hide. I have mutiple interactive layers to switch in and out from. When I preview the animation and click into the first interactive layer, then click the close button, and open the second interactive layer. I then close the second interactive layer, and open the first interactive layer again, my close button disappears.  How can I keep this from happening? We plan to export this to publish online and embedded into a website to be viewed and used.     <Title renamed by MOD>

After the usual annual update of Adobe InDesing some of my projects stopped opening. When opening a project, a window appears for a split of a second, then closes and nothing happens. The project wont open and no other error message is displayed:  How can this be solved? The project is not corrupted - same issue happens on three different computers - macOS and Windows. Seems like the 2025 update messed up something? Other projects, files and such open just fine without any problems. Any possible solution to that?

When exporting from InDesign 19 to PDF, the PDF file always is missing 2 specific pages. Any idea why this occurs and what can be done to include them?     <Title renamed by MOD>
