InDesign

Hi,I'm using InDesign 19.0.1Im trying to export an accessible PDF. I've checked the tags on the paragraph styles and the object export options box. I've made sure I've ticked the create tagged PDF and include Bookmarks and Hyperlinks boxes when exporting to PDF. When I open in Acrobat  and look in the tags pannel it says no tags available. When I check the content pannel the containers all say <artifact> next to them.  I'm not sure what's going wrong? Can someone help? Thanks,

I have a large collection of 1-2 page PDFs that I need to make small edits to and maintain as documents for future edits. I am able to import a document into Adobe Acrobat Pro and use the optical character recognition feature to convert things to editible text and make changes, but I can't save the document in any lossless way from within Acrobat (other than exporting another flattened PDF).  Does Indesign support similar optical character recognition for importing PDFs?  I'm looking for a way to do this without having to start over on the many documents I have in PDF format.  Since I know Adobe is capable of optical character recognition (Acrobat Pro), and has great document managing software (InDesign) I'm hoping to find a way to do this within the Adobe Creative suite, without having to pay $300 for 3rd party conversion software.  Can I copy-paste from Acrobat Pro to InDesign (after Acrobat has done the text conversion)?     <Title renamed by MOD>

In all my CS applications except InDesign CS6 (Mac), I can dock the tools window by the side of the main content panes like any other window: drag it to the edge, and at just the right point, it highlights where it will be docked with a blue outline, and docks when you let go.I can't find any way to do this in InDesign CS6 (Version 8.0, Mac), however. Unlike every other window, it never gives the option to dock, no matter where I drag it. The only options in the toolbar itself switch between one row vertical, two rows vertical, and one row horizontal. I've also looked in Preferences > Interface and the only options refer to the "Floating tools bar" and give the same one row vertical, two rows vertical, and one row horizontal options as the tool bar itself.I can't see any option to stop it floating. I've tried on a variety of Window > Arrange settings, and with Window > Application Frame both ticked and unticked, and nothing works. I can make it snap to position in a corner, bu

I'm using InDesign CS5.5 and the ExtendScript Toolkit 4.1.28I want to change the color, size and line spacing of a ToC after the update I used var toc = ... // my Story toc.textContainers[0].select() app.menuActions.item("$ID/UpdateTableOfContentsCmd").invoke(); toc.texts[0].fillColor = "Black"; // it Works toc.texts[0].appliedParagraphStyle.pointSize = 7; // applied only to the first row var parStyle = toc.texts[0].appliedParagraphStyle; parStyle.pointSize = 7; toc.texts[0].applyParagraphStyle(parStyle); // Applied to all, but the entire style including underline and so on, not only the font size var paragraphs = toc.paragraphs for (var i = 0 ; i < paragraphs.length; i++ ) { paragraphs[i].appliedParagraphStyle.pointSize = 7; // not working }  How can I set the font size and the line spacint to the entire object? (title + ToC) Manually i enter in the textBox, I click Ctrl+A (Select ALL) and I use the two forms as shown Thanks

I want to connect to indesign server. How do I do that?

Bonjour, je rencontre un souci d'affichage: dès que je sélectionne un objet sur une page de travail, un bandeau noir apparait en bas d'écran et bouge en fonction de la position du curseur, voir tremble. dans un post trouvé de la communité, il était question de RAM insuffisante; j'ai ajouté hier de la mémoire est aujourd'hui 20GO, et le problème perdure. Avez vous un idée, une solution? merci

Hi, Dear Friends! I want to make a paragraph into a "block quote," i.e., inside a frame with a different colored background. That much even a dummy like me can handle. But the shading color of the paragraph stretches the entire text frame width, which I don't want. I want it indented from both right and left. The paragraph indent has no effect on the shading, and it fills up the entire width as above; how can we indent the border with the shade without making a new, separate text frame? (In MS Word, we did this using a table, but am sure ID can handle it without that. ) Thank you, and have a good day!Susan Flamingo   <Title renamed by MOD>

The Script Label window allows you to set an arbitrary label value to more or less any page object, a label which will subsequently be available in scripting. According to the DOM, documents and book files (of type BookContent) also have the `label` property, but unlike page objects, documents and book files cannot – as far as I can tell – be ‘selected’ in a way that makes the Script Label field editable, so I cannot figure out a way to set the label on them from the UI – that is, without scripting. Is there a way to do this?

Hello, i'm trying to make a javascript script to find update an index but i'm stucked. I'm using InDesign CS5.5 and the ExtendScript Toolkit 4.1.28 I have an indb file and many indd, I can locate the right file indd and open it with app.open.I tried to look at indexes but they are always 0, I also tried to check textFrames to find the right one but without success. I looked for a way to inspect the document to identify the structure but i can't find anythin better than randomly checking elements with the debugger. I manually update the index selecting the textbox and then with Edit -> Update index Can you help me to aumate it? Thanks

Anytime I try to open indesign, it gets to the loading screen then immediately closes. I have tried restarting my laptop, resetting my entire laptop, uninstalling indesign, removing preferences, using creative cloud cleaner tool, and more. When I open the app after uninstalling or removing preferences it works and opens and I can use it, however the next time I try to use it, it doesn't work again. When I can use it, everything seems to work well, it's only when trying to open it again that it fails. I also have indesign downloaded on my home computer (on the same account) and it works absolutely fine on there.     <Title renamed by MOD>

I've seen many posts about the horrid list of Noto Sans clogging up the font selection list.I really hope an Adobe expert will respond to this post from an Apple forum and explain whether this is legit or not. "Apple has made an API available to developers since El Capitan to hide fonts that are not meant for your region/language. Most apps use them, such as the Affinity suite.For whatever reason (and they won't say why), Adobe has refused to implement it. My guess is they don't want to cut off access to fonts an advertising agency or print shop may need to produce a project. But they could still do something as adding a simple check box to turn these non-language related fonts on or off as the user needs them." If this is true that Apple has made an API available, why is Adobe not using it. We pay a lot of money to use Adobe products and it's absolutely maddening to have to scroll through the list of 200 Noto Sans fonts to find what I need. Yes, I know someone has provi

I need to highlight text but I already have a character style applied as needed; strong.It appears that ID will only allow one char style.I am trying to avoid a Highlight and Highlight Strong scenerio.I have blocks of text, some words bold, that need a highlight applied. I am using a heavy underline with negative offset for the highlight.Search engines and YouTube offer the underline technique but not mixed attribute solution.  

Hi, I am trying to export an InDesign document that contains several PDFs. It does not publish the curved or circular alphabets like O,S,C,U. What can be done to avoid this?    <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi, I am currently using the Ivy Journal font on InDesign and for some reason the text does not display the correct letters that I type onto my keyboard. For example, if i type in the letter "b" on InDesign, it shows the letter "a". Because of this, I'm basically typing gibberish and I can't space. I was wondering if there is a solution to this problem because a lot of other people I know using this font also have this problem.   <Title renamed by MOD>

I'm need to log on to my older versions of Indesign without wifi.Working remotely it should still load. But it's still forcing me to sign in on the CLOUD. Why am I needing to do this? - Can't seem to use the updated cloud version with my historical saved files as ADOBE'S Protectionist Policy with user owned FONTS causes a real PROBELM. The new cloud based version renderes years of historical work, with embedded fonts a real problem now failing to recognise fonts I've purchased and used for decades. Getting fed up with this.

Why is it a whit underline if the color I chose is different? 

- Many of the artworkers in our studio are experiencing InDesign files intermittently opening as Read-Only on our network. After trying several times of opening and closing the files may open correctly.- The files can be 'Saved As' once opened to save any changes, but will open as Read-Only again straight afterwards.- We have tried adding 'InDesign' to System Preferences - Security & Privacy - 'Full Disk Access' and 'Files & Folders' but it hasn't helped.- We have tried it on SMB and AFP with no change to behaviour- It has been happening with previous versions of InDesign.  We are currently using Indesign 2024.- It effects both intel and M1 & M2 chip computers.Anybody got any ideas other than the ones we have tried please?

My question is about Applescript but I think the issue is the same with Javascript. Can someone confirm that in InDesign 19.5.1 this snippet errors when applied on a vertical graphic line: resize someLine in outer stroke bounds from top left anchor by replacing current dimensions with values {3, 70}   The same goes with a horizontal graphic line with inverted values {70, 3}[error 11269 : the requested value is not an allowed dimension]

Hello.I'm using Adobe Indesign 2023 as for a student. It's about the unlike for PC program's main screen. This version of program Indesign 2024 demonstrates a different workspace UI for tablet user. However, this version for tablet screen doesn't fit for common laptop screen. (Especially when I run on my previous laptop.) In this case, do I have to buy another laptop with touch screen or to change some options?Thank you.   <Title renamed by MOD>

Every time I export my product catalog from InDesign, the images of the products in PNG format appear transparent. The background pattern shows through the bottles. This issue has only started recently. I don’t know what the problem is. Previously, InDesign never had issues with exporting.What is the problem? Here are some example images showing how the output looks in InDesign and how it appears as a PDF. inDesign: exported PDF: If you have other questions, feel free to ask!

Hello community, I'm formatting my paper Photo book with some text inside, primary bleed photos.Having this setup, I' getting lost, I need to set up a templateCan someone indicates with a photo if you can, the correct numbers for my template?thanks in advance!- amazon says :"InteriorYour file contains insufficient bleed. See examples PDF page(s) 3 - 5, 112 - 114, 216 - 218. 1. Ensure the page(s) are sized correctly for bleed. Interiors with bleed should have 0.125" (3.2 mm) added to the width and 0.25" (6.4 mm) to the page height.2. If the pages are already sized for bleed, make sure you extend any images and backgrounds that you want to reach all the way to the edge of the page at least 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. This prevents white gaps along the outside edge(s) when the file is trimmed to size.3. If there is content that is not intended to bleed, please ensure it stops within the margins, 0.375" (9.5 mm) or more from any outside edge of the page."

Very simple indesign page. Text is looking wavy/distorted? Also when exported. Any ideas?  top is example of font at MyFonts, bottom in Indesign file. Second photo is exported jpeg.    I'm not imagining this, right?       <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi, When moving CS6 to a new computer I deactivated the software before uninstalling. I then installed the software on the new computer and it worked. Now, after the summer, InDesign says on startup that my trial has ended. When I try to attach the license it says: "The serial number you entered has been revoked. This product cannot be licensed. Pleas contact Customer Support". I did contact customer support by chat. They started by trying to sell discounted creative cloud subscription based licensed. Maybe a good offer, but for the moment I'm good with the product we own. They then asked for my serial number which I gave to them and they confimed that the serial number was good. I asked why the Adobe software reports it has been revoked. They refused to answer any questins about CS6 because it is end off support and rI was referred to the community forum where they said many experts are available to help. I did everything I could find on the comnunity for
