I have not been able to save files from my computer to the Adobe account. Can someone help me trouble shoot please
Hi everyone,The Problem: In InDesign, I can see the icons for files shared with me, but clicking them does nothing. Occasionally, the loading cursor appears briefly, but the file never opens. Local files work perfectly.In Illustrator, I have the same issue, but it triggers an error banner: "You don't have access to this file," even though I am logged in with the exact email address used for the sharing invitation.What I've tried: Updated both apps to the latest version. Ensured no one else is currently working in the files. Verified my Adobe ID matches the invited email. Has anyone encountered this sync/permission glitch? Any advice on how to fix it?
Hi, when I prepare an InDesign file using "Share for Review" feature, the images are exported out rather low resolution / blurry as seen here:https://assets.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:913908ef-996f-4b5f-b99d-f730a011bda9?view=publishedThese images are quite hi-res in the original document and look fine in InDesign, but they are overly compressed when viewed in the review pane. The original source images are in PNG format.
I need an old copy of Indesign 2023 v18.Adobe have told me that they no longer support legacy installers and only offer N1 & N2 versions, which are available from CC.I have newer versions but need an old copy also for one of my publishers, who still use Indd 2023.Does anyone have a link where I can download and install Indesign 2023?Thank you
Why is it 2026 and there is still no RTF export (all text boxes) for Indesign without third party plugins or scripts? And don’t even think about mentioning indd > PDF > Word to RTF I feel like I’m taking krazy pills here.
Hello all, this started happening happening on the latest update of InDesign. When I export High Quality or Press Quality PDFs from InDesign, my output PDF shows images as pixelated and with jagged edges. Jpgs come out blurry too. This was not happening before. Here is an example: Here are my settings for Exporting PDF. If my memory serves me right, this was an issue on 2018 CC version. I think it's happening again. Any ideas or fixes? Thanks!!
I’m learning how to merge data and images into an InDesign file. I’m new to this process. I have a bunch of charts (PDFs) that I’m importing via the merge function. They are merging, but they are all over the place in terms of size (98%, 107%, 160%). How can I “force” them to pop in at 100%? And secondly, is there a way to make sure they always merge in at the same x/y coordinate? Thanks!
Linked image within illustrator file not appearing when placed in indesign.I have a map created in Illustrator with a background (flattened) tiff which displays fine in Illustrator. Once placed into InDD, the tiff won't appear (layer is ON and printing) and doesn't get included in exports (thus eliminating a rendering issue of any kind). This has happened on 2 separate files but is fine in others with the same set-up. On occasion the tiff will reappear…This is fundamental to my job.Illustrator 30.2.1InDesign 21.3OS 15.7.4 (24G517)
We are facing an issue with accessibility tagging in InDesign while exporting to a tagged PDF.The table is designed across a two-page spread//split (full-width layout). However, after exporting the file as a tagged PDF, the table structure is recognized only on the first page. The content on the second page is not identified as part of the same table in the PDF tags.Observation: First page table is tagged correctly Second page table content is not included in the table structure Reading order and tagging break across pages Expected behavior:The table should be recognized as a single structure across both pages in the tagged PDF. Questions:Is this a known limitation in InDesign? Is there any workaround to maintain a continuous table structure across pages in tagged PDF? Are there any recommended best practices for handling full-spread tables for accessibility?Any guidance or confirmation from Adobe team would be helpful.Thanks in advance.
I've been reading Adobe InDesign Classroom in a Book 2026, and I noticed that the book uses "work area" and "workspace" as two distinct terms — seemingly intentionally.The book defines them as follows:Work area: "The InDesign work area encompasses everything you see when you first open or create a document." — described as distinct from the Home screen. Workspace: "The configuration of the panels in the work area is referred to as the 'workspace'." — i.e., a named preset of panel arrangements, selectable from Window > Workspace (such as Essentials or Typography).This distinction makes a lot of sense to me. The Home screen and the work area seem to be treated as two separate, opposing states of the application — and "workspace" is reserved specifically for panel layout presets.However, Adobe's online manual defines workspace much more broadly:"To create and manage documents in Adobe Creative Cloud applications, you can use various elements, such as panels, bars, and windows. Any arra
Hi,Is there a way to apply a Parent page to all the odd or even pages?After adding a page in between the existing pages i have to re-apply, by manually selecting each odd or even page.*edit: spelling (replaced uneven with odd)
At a juncture now where it’s necessary to create a matte spot varnish file for text only in an illustrated edition. The text is comprised of body text and titles in K only, and hundreds of sidenote annotations in a custom pms spot (a Pantone grey mix), which, due to the unforeseen effects of the printer’s UV LED offset process, are rendering now as an undesirably glossy text on our matte, natural finish Arctic Volume White stock, deliberately chosen for its non-glare properties. We’re preserving, however, the richly saturated and glossy look on the imagery that UV LED printing introduced (so a flood coat won’t do), but the text, in a dense and lengthy scholarly edition, can’t be encumbered with glare. The printer uses only Toyo ink and after many conversations with them and Toyo in the EU (where the printer is) the kabosh has definitively been put on Toyo Ink resurrecting their matte formula, eliminated 8 years ago. This would’ve allowed printing all text as a matte spot ink, avoiding
Suppose I’ve selected three objects. In the end, I want those three objects to remain selected and be moved to the top of the stack relative to all other objects.I tried the code below, but it seems to only support a single object.Of course, only one can be at the very top.I just need the selected objects to be on top of the others. var d = app.activeDocument; var item = d.selection[0]; var items = d.selection; var sel = items;//do something d.selection = sel; for (j = 0; i < sel .length; j++) { //sel[j].bringToFront();sel[j].bringForward(); }

Hello everyone! I’m trying to create a small plugin to manage my product listings.It’s a user interface that contains the information needed to automatically fill out my document.The plugin uses named objects such as “Model Name” and automatically fills in the fields with data from a CSV file. Previously, I had written a windowed version to test and debug it. But I needed a palette/dialog box to scroll through the entire document while I enter the information (which doesn’t work with a windowed version because the document remains static). And I wanted an OK/Apply button to confirm changes and continue working without the page closing, while still being able to navigate the document at the same time. For now, the problem is at the end of the script with dlg.show();The dialog box closes instantly when I click on it. Here is the code. Can you help me?:) // ======================================================// PRODUCT SHEET// ======================================================if (
Is it necessary to display a warning for missing fonts when importing from Word?Sometimes I don’t need it.I’ve already unchecked the “Check fonts” option under “Advanced Text” in “File Handling” in the Preferences.It doesn’t seem to be working.
I’m creating book pages and I create a frame, and then in frame fitting options I select “fit content to frame”. But it’s not doing that. It’s not forcing the content to fit the frame, it’s fitting the content proportionally. Which I don’t want. Any idea how to fix this?You can see below that it’s fitting the content proportionally, not to the frame.
Hello, everyone.I want to use ‘s.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT)’ to shrink the bottom of a text box, but I want to exclude cases where the bottom border is part of a table.I'm not sure if there's a way to do this.Thank you
Hello guys,the indesign client allows it to move a page item into a rectangle by copy it and pase with the option "paste into selection". How this behavior can be achieved by scripting on the indesign server?Thanks for the answers!
Hi! I know there were similar topics, but none of them answered. Sorry for asking again, but this is a serious issue. We develop .zxp extensions. They need to be updated from time to time. And new extension files need to be signed correctly. The problem is that ZXPSignCmd requires a .p12 file to sign the extension. It's not just another container format, the .p12 file contains a _key_ along with the signing certificate. The key is mandatory, without it you can't sign. And CAs don't seem to export signing keys anymore.For this reason: https://knowledge.digicert.com/alerts/code-signing-changes-in-2023 If there is a CA that still exports .p12 files, please let us know. It would be a lifesaver. At least for a while. But in any case, ZXPSignCmd requires PKCS#11 support. Or its successor. Or another option. The .zxp file contains a digitally signed XML file, which is a bit hard to replicate, but technically possible. I'm sure there are people skilled enough to create such
I am using macOS Ventura 13.7.8.
Wenn ich eine InDesign-Datei exportiere, erhalte ich unbrauchbare Resultate. Text ist OK, aber die Bilder unbrauchbar. Bis vor kurzem hat alles geklappt, jetzt nicht mehr. Preflight zeigt an, dass alles OK ist.Ich arbeite mit MacOS Tahoe, InDesign habe ich auf die neueste Version updated.Ich bin dringend darauf angewiesen, ein Layout als PDF verschicken zu können und bitte um schnelle Hilfe.
InDesign won't allow me to select text, or select any preferences. I've done an update in Cloud, and it says I have ID version 20.5.2. I've never had an issue like this. I'm using a Mac Studio Tahoe 26.2.
I am working on making the digital version of our document accessible. The math equations were placed into the InDesign (v 21.3) document using the Math Expressions (MathML) panel. After exporting the document to PDF with the “Create Tagged PDF” option enabled and running an accessibility check, the equations were flagged for alt‑text issues. There are more than 200 equations in our document, so I am looking for an alternative to creating alt-text for each of them. What is the most efficient way to resolve this accessibility problem?
I have endnotes created in InDesign using the InDesign Endnote options. Created a PDF using Made-to-tag. When I created a PDF, I either get an error in the Acrobat Checker saying “Nested alternate text -failed” as I added Alt-text to the link-OBJR tag in the note tag, however if I do not have alt-text on this tag I get a PAC error saying "'contents' entry on an annotation exists, but is only comprised of whitespace.". How do I fix this manually in Acrobat? or in indesign?
