Bonjour,  Depuis peu j'ai des soucis lors de l'export de mes PDF pour impression, que ce soit à partir d'Indesign ou d'illustrator. Je travaille sur des visuels de grande taille (par exemple 2000x3000mm).Pour éviter que les fichiers ne soit trop lourds je me mets à l'échelle 1/10eme et j'exporte également au 10eme (ici 200x300mm). Quand j'imprime ces fichiers en taille réelle (à partir du PDF au 10e donc), je n'ai normalement pas de soucis et les images sont de très bonne qualité. Mais récemment (j'ai l'impression que c'est depuis la dernière mise à jour) cela ne fonctionne plus et les images sortent pixellisées (pas de problème sur les vecteurs).Je n'ai rien changé à mes paramètres, j'ai fait l'essai avec d'anciens fichiers sans rien modifier : l'ancien PDF est ok, le nouveau est pixellisé. Ma colègue a le même soucis que moi et nous ne comprenons pas. Y a t'il quelque chose qui a changé dans les paramètres d'export que nous n'avons pas vu?  Merci d'avanc

Hello All,Since version 16.4, my InDesign has been freezing when it launches.  The initial launcher will load but when InDesign opens the entire application freezes and I have to force quit it.  I've tried clearing the preferences on startup, rolling back to version 16.4 and 17.0, updating Windows 10, updating all drivers on my computer, uninstalling and re-installing InDesign, and uninstalling and clearing the cache files for InDesign then re-installing. I have yet to get InDesign working - but all other Adobe apps work fine on my pc, any help will be appreciated! Thank you! 

Dear Adobe,                   Adobe Indesign CC 2024 (V 19.2) is slow in operation or hangs itself (spinning wheel) without the access of internet in Apple M2, Ultra 64 GB RAM workstation. The performance is at its best with internet access.Kindly give the suggestion, if the internet access is a must for the application's performance. If not suggest the available remidies. 

I have set my account to download the middle eastern version of indesign but the ME type tool doesn't appear? 

When making a pargraph style, I would like to extend my underlining beyond the text. Not across the entire page, but to a certain amount of space for a nice effect. How can I set this up so I do not have to manually go through my sections and hit the space bar after the desired text?  Instead, I would like to add it to the paragrpah style I am using for that text.  Thank you!    Also, I was very happy with the training from the Adobe NJ InDesign Group recently, how can I find other resources like this or joint this group fully if anyone knows? I am not able to attend live due to time zone diffrences, but appreciated the recorded event.     <Title renamed by MOD>

Is there a way to open multiple documents under 1 tab? I am not looking to combine tabs or create a book. For context, I place text ads onto a template. Some papers have over 100 ads and having to copy, close, and paste them onto the template becomes very tedious. Please help! This would save a lot of time! Each of the ads in the screenshot are documents I have to copy and paste onto the template.        <Tilte renamed by Moderator>

Hi, I'm trying to export my pages base on a text box of my file: its a document of multiple cerifications so every page has the name of each person that participated. I'm trying to automaticize the process of exportation to have a pdf of every page with the name of the person based on the text box that has it written. I tagged each box with "nombreDestinatario" but it doesn't work. Also, I don't know if the ExportPreset it's ok. I appreciate if you can help me 🙂(I don't want to keep writting on each file the corresponded name hahah there are 40 pages)var myDocument = app.activeDocument; var myPages = myDocument.pages; var myPage, myTextFrame, myFileName; for (var i = 0; i < myPages.length; i++) { myPage = myPages[i]; myTextFrame = null; for (var j = 0; j < myPage.textFrames.length; j++) { if (myPage.textFrames[j].label == "nombreDestinatario") { myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames[j]; break; } } if (

Dear all,We are running InDesign Server CC 2014 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (64bit).We start InDesign.exe from the command line.We just bought another license for 1 more year, with this we got a new serial number. But... where to enter this new serial number to activate?Some further informations:- In older Version of InDesign, you could provide the serial when starting InDesign in the command line (but this is obviously no longer possible in the current versions InDesign Server CC 2014. In documentation, this option doesn't appear any more.).- We already tried the "adobe_prtk" for an offline activation, but this only returns "Return Code 14".new serial: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxrequestcode:  ABCefghijklmnopQRst...=response/replycode: Yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyY yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy YYY->adobe_prtk --tool=Type1Exception --accept --serial=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx --responsecode=Yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyY yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy YYY=  --leid=InDesignServer-1

Hi there!I have a problem with InDesign 2024.When I start the app I get the message with an exclamation mark: InDesign has unexpectedly stopped.It’s impossible to start the app.I’ve tried to remove the app with the desktop app and with the AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool. In both options I've also removed the personal settings.After reinstall InDesign the first launch is without problem. When I quit the app and do a restart the same problem occurs. When I manually delete the InDesign Preferences folder (username>Library>Preferences>Adobe InDesign>Version 19.0>nl_NL) I can start InDesign without any problem.When I quit the app and do a restart the same problem pops up. When I start InDesign while pressing the keys Shift Control Option Command and choose Yes in the context window, InDesign starts normally. Off course this not a normal way to start InDesign. It’s also impossible to start the app with my own preferences. Does anyone has an idea to solve thi

Adobe InDesign is stalling at launch (During Loading Panels).  Eventually, I will get a force quit prompt.  I'm on Ventura 13.6.7 and InDesign v19.5.  Admittedly, I was pushing the app pretty hard today exporting versions of files, etc.  When the force quit prompt comes up, InDesign is showing usage of 95GB.  I've tried other older responses to this issue, but they all seemed to be around the iOS version, which mine is fine.  Any help is appreciated, I'm under deadline to complete book. 

I've been using InDesign's desktop version for a while and was accustomed to overriding all master page items using: app.menuActions.itemByName("$ID/Override All Master Page Items").invoke();However, now that I'm working with InDesign Server 2024, I encounter issues with overriding all master page items. I've been trying to adapt my script to this new environment and have the following code: function overrideMasterItems(page, masterSpread) {    var masterPageItems = masterSpread.pageItems.everyItem().getElements();    for (var i = 0; i < masterPageItems.length; i++) {        var masterItem = masterPageItems[i];        try {            var bounds = masterItem.geometricBounds;            var overriddenItem = masterItem.override(page);&nbsp

I'm making a coupon booklet.I want numbering only on the front of each coupon.The problem is that if I remove the page number on the back, it continues to count as if it is still there.I want the count of the pages to be on the front pages only.Anyone have a solution for me?

Just wondering if there a way to force (even by plugin or scripting) a display performance setting by layer??  ie - Layer 1 is high quality, layer 2 is typical.   Thanks!   <Title renamed by MOD>

I have a lengthy document with different types of numbered lists that run throughout. Because of different background colors on pages I need to change character styles from black to white for specific locations without disrupting the list. I can change the character style of the list text, but not the numbering text. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.<Title renamed by moderator>

Hi everyone, I've been experiencing some issues with the software we commonly use and could really use your help. Here's the problem:Every time I click the "Create" button, the software fails to generate a new file. I've tried the following solutions, but the problem persists:- Restarting the computer- Reinstalling the software These methods haven't resolved the issue. Has anyone else encountered this problem, or does anyone have any other suggestions to fix it? Thanks in advance for your help!<Title renamed by moderator>

Lo tengo instalado en un ordenador con windows 10, los otros programas de adobe sí  funcionan pero InDesign queda como proceso en segundo plano, cargando y nunca llega a abrirse. No encuentro solución, ayuda, gracias. 

I am creating a list of all weights and styles of a font family by script.The list looks like this:Arial:  Regular | Italic | Bold | Bold Italic | For every font weight/style there is a character style with the same name.I try to apply this character style to every term in the list, but if I work withmyFrame.parentStory.lines[1].words[i].appliedCharacterStyle=myStyles[i];it is not working, because some styles have two words (like Bold Italic) and I  also want to use the | as seperator...Is there a better solution to achieve this? here is  the for each loop:for ( var i = 0; i < myStyles.length; i++ ) { myFrame.insertionPoints[-1].contents=myStyles[i]+" "; myFrame.parentStory.words[i].appliedCharacterStyle=myStyles[i]; };

I've been having problems packaging files on indesign : It exports a pdf file with 0 KB and a forth file (which is the actual pdf) without an extension I have no idea how to solve this        <Title renamed by Moderator>  

Hi I created some simple vectors in illustrator, placed them into a library. And bu simple I mean squares and circlesIn idesign I hold alt whilst dragging into document. All vectors are rasterised and cannot be edited, recolored or anything in indesign. This never used to be the case and in other older libraries no such issues. The items in the libraries have the Ai logo next to them. How can I fix this please?

Hi all, not sure if anyone has had the same issue but since the 2020 updates. My Indesign user interface is double the size and takes up much of my 14" screen. I thought it was a windows problem but my Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop are completely fine and perfect size. Does anyone know how to change this? Thanks
