InDesign

Hello,   I am importing a Word document (cmnd+D) into a text element.This is (a part of) the Word-document: (look at the komma) The komma is on the normal place, after the word. But when I import this in Indesign, it looks like this: Indesign moves all punctuation marks!!! Then what happens when I want to select them or delete them, I can not even select them, look:  I am sick and tired of this random sh!t happening, it costs me a lot of time every time. I can not work like this. Please help me with a solution.Frans     <Title renamed by MOD>

   I don't know what happened and how to fix it, I need help asap 😞

Working with a large book ms in Word, something I've done many times, but this time I have encountered something I don't recall seeing/dealing with before.   I am working through import iterations and mapping the Word styles to newly defined ID styles. Everything is fine except that ID is retaining local formatting on each of these styles. Every BODY paragraph, for example, is retaining things like the original font and size as well as trivial settigns like hyphenation. Every character style is properly defined and applied, but the text retains the formatting of the original as a spot override.   Is there a way to force a style redefinition to clear local spot formatting, both paragraph and character? It appears to affect nearly all the paragraphs of the book, and I'm not sure I've ever seen this before. I really can't Clear Overrides on every single one...   —

Hello InDesign-ers!Its a long shot, but checking to see if someone can maybe help. We have somewhat of an old jsx script for InDesign someone found awhile back (2016) called ExportStoriesToRTF.jsx. Works on the Macs, but in Windows its been hit or miss. We can't for the life of us figure out why it works on some workstations and not others. And all versions of ID are the same. Settings too. Not sure if we actually need Java installed, but version of Java is the same as well. We get a crazy pop when we execute the script from the Scripts panel which I've attached. Anyone ever use this script? Any experience you can share? 

Hello! Does anyone know about an Indesign feature which helps simulate recycled paper ? I would like to do that in order to adapt my document colors to recycled paper before printing. Thank you!  

replaced 1 of 2 old monitors on a desktop machine (i7, GF1060, win11), with a 4k Dell U3223.  drivers were installed, color profile seems good. All ID files look low quality on the new monitor. If I drag them to the old monitor, they look great. If I copy the text from the file, and paste it into a Word document, it looks great. Found the setting for ID that shows only medium quality, changed it to high, but it made no change. tried changing resolutions from 4k to 2k, FHD etc. Also tried different scaling levels (150%, 125, 100) in windows, but nothing helped.   Mentioning again, everything looked great on the replaced monitor, and still looks great on the remaining older monitor,  and everything looks great on the new monitor outside of ID.      <Title renamed by MOD>

Hey Guys, I have a problem where indesign is changing the line spacing in a paragraph when I hit return. The typeface is 18 with spacing at 20. This doesn't change when I highlight the line above and the line below.Can anyone shed any light? This happens all the time.

My indesign file has a fixed white border around the entire page and I cannot figure out how to remove it. It is not on the master page. Nothing is locked in the file.  Shown below, if I create a large pink banner and want it to bleed off the top/sides, it appears to go behind the border.           <Title renamed by MOD>  

Hi   I'm doing  a project in Yiddish and need to change my binding direction to right to left. I can't figure out how to do that in InDesign 19.5. I gather there's no separate ME version of InDesign anymore. I don't see the option in Document Settings or Prefs.I've got the right to left paragraph styles working correctly, that's not the problem. It's getting the pagination to go from right to left.   Thanks for your help!   Kurt     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hello, I'm having trouble getting rotation handles. They appear for a split second and then disappear. Is there any shortcut to bring them up?     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi -  I'm trying to turn off "Facing Pages" for new documents. I have gone through the ritual of: File > Document Presets > Define. When the Document Presets dialog box appears, select [Default] from the Presets list and click Edit. Then Edit Document Preset dialog box. Proceed to turn Facing Pages off and click OK.   Except when I create a New Document, in the New Document dialog window it STILL shows Facing Pages checked. Any direction or advice would be greatly appreciated!!Thx!

This started a few weeks ago and no matter what I do the problem persists.    I have a 1440p HDR monitor, Windows 11 (latest) and only in indesign and only in the CC library panel, do I get graphical glitches. Without clicking anything, just simply moving my mouse, the pnel turns yellow and white, and gets brighter the more I ass over it.    I have tried with and without HDR enabled, I have gone through HDR configuration, I have tried resetting my GPU (RTX3060 12GB), but still the glitches persist and it makes it a nightmare to make my colour selelections.    Please see the screenshot and video capture.      <Title renamed by MOD>

I am under the impression that I cannot create/add custom brushes in InDesign for strokes.I am creating a number of sidebar text boxes that I would like to apply a custom brush (eg. charcoal line) around. This seems to be like it would be a very basic feature similar to Illustrator. Am I missing something?

Soudainement impossible de me connecter à mon compte Adobe au lancement de InDesign CC 2018 :  après avoir cliqué sur "se connecter maintenant", la fenêtre reste en perpétuel chargement.

Hallo Leute!Ich habe ganz neu das Programm "Adobe Designer" von meinem Arbeitgeber zur Verfügung gestellt bekommen und versuche mich damit jetzt vertraut zu machen. Das gestaltet sich allerdings gar nicht mal so einfach. Ich entschuldige mich jetzt schon mal, falls meine Frage zu simpel ist, aber ich komme echt nicht weiter:Ich soll ein dynamisches Formular mit mehreren Seiten unter anderem mit Textfeldern erstellen.  Jetzt ist auf der ersten Seite ein Textfeld, was vom Anwender befüllt werden soll. Die Länge des Textes kann jedoch auch mal über die eine Seite hinausgehen. In diesem Fall möchte ich einen Seitenwechsel hinbekommen und das Textfeld von Seite 1 soll auf Seite 2 weitergehen. Die nachfolgenden Seiten sollen sich dann (und nur dann) verschieben. So wie es in Word total einfach ist. Im Designer bekomme ich das nicht hin. Geht das überhaupt, dass das Textfeld über mehrere Seiten verläuft? Der Text soll auf jeden Fall im sichtbaren Bereich bleiben.Kann mir wer helfen? Ich

Dear allI'm having an issue with Adobe InDesign 2024. I imported a Word document that was marked with EndNote. Although the references are highlighted, I can't find them in the hyperlink list. Moreover, I'm unable to click on them. Has anyone else faced a similar problem? What could be the possible solutions? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

Up until recently (and I'm not sure when the upodate may have changed things) when I duplicated an object the new copy appeared slightly right and down from the original.... now this is appearing right at the bottom of the pasteboard and way over to the right - I'm guessing it would go further right if there was more vertical pasteboard available... There must be a way to set the offset for the duplicate function - but I can't find it!   Any pointers most welcome   <Title renamed by MOD>    

Mac user open a indesign files on a NAS server and work on it - and then suddenly files is read only.No other users is using this file. Any ideas what to check for ? - or if there is any log files etc somewhere ?

I've posted before about InDesign-macOS compatibility and with the help of the community, decided not to update my OS to Sonoma, so I'm still on macOS 12--Monterey (12.7.6). This morning Adobe updated all my apps except Photoshop. I got a message that Photoshop might not work on my older OS. Now I'm stumped regarding what to do--if I update my OS to 15, InDesign might not work. If I stick with 12, I can't update all of my Adobe apps. Both InDesign and Photoshop are essential to my work.   <Title renamed by MOD>

Bonjour à tous, J'ai imprimé un visuel avec l'option 'mosaïque', composé de 20 pages A3. Certaines de ces pages ont rencontré un problème d'impression, et j'aimerai pouvoir relancer l'impression de ces pages uniquement... Comment cela est-il possible ? J'ai tenté de renseigner le numéro des pages concernées dans le champ 'Etendue', mais Indesign considère qu'il n'y a qu'une seule page au document. Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

Hi all, Today I am stuck with this validation of library issue.  How to validate a indesign library file is a valid file or not before opening it into application using javascript. Is a way or method or something near by that. Thing is if I take any random file instead of a proper library file and renamed it ".indl" and try to open it through javascript, entire application crashes instead of throwing error. Instead if you open that file manually in InDesign you will get to see an error message that it is not a valid file but application never crashes.   Thanks Sunil
