Hola. Es la primera vez que publico una consulta a la comunidad. Ojalá alguien pueda ayudarme. Estoy creando un libro interactivo multimedia, un ebook, en InDesign. Pero tengo el problema que cuando exporto el ebook a .EPUB los archivos de audio e imágenes aparecen al final del ebook uno debajo del otro y no se quedan en los lugares correspondientes del libro que los dejo.  Desde ya muchas gracias. Saludos. Ariel.

I'm having a very frustrating problem where text inside my text boxes disappears or becomes overset text when I move them around on the page. Keep in mind that I'm not scaling the text boxes- I just move them up or down and they become overset. I'm also having a sister issue where the vertical margins on text boxes keep shifting when I move them to where I see double text. Regardless of the double text, the vertical margin keeps shifting when I move the text box. I believe that there must be something that I'm not accounting for on the page that is causing these things to shift.

My latest invention - maybe already exists out there But this script allows you to load the placeholder with the same image x amount of times I often have to place the same graphic into empty image frame placeholders, and loading the placeholder with the same image is not time consuming - but trying to learn scripting, and why do something manually when you have a computer :)As always - sharing for future improvements/enhancements - or if someone is in same situation. // Multi-Place Graphic Script(function() { var myFile = File.openDialog("Select the graphic you want to place multiple times"); if (myFile != null) { var count = prompt("How many times do you want to place this image?", "4"); if (count !== null && !isNaN(count)) { var loadArray = []; for (var i = 0; i < parseInt(count); i++) { loadArray.push(myFile); } // This loads the Place Gun with the array of the same file app.activeD

I am currently working on a artbook and the printer asked to update to a 20 mm gutter bleed and I'm not sure how that should be set up in my file. I also need help with where I should place the full art spreads with that new bleed set up.

Hello, I am writing a script to automatically perform a data merge on a template that contains a table of content that needs to be updated.I have written the following function for updating the TOC, which works fine: function updateTOCs(doc) { var TOC = doc.textFrames.itemByName("TOC"); if(TOC == "[object TextFrame]"){ TOC.select(); app.menuActions.item("$ID/UpdateTableOfContentsCmd").invoke();} else($.writeln("There is no text frame called TOC")); }However, it doesn't work when I iterate through the merged documents like so:for (var i = mergeDocs.length - 1; i >= 0; i--){ var openDoc = app.documents[i]; updateTOCs(openDoc);}This gives the error “Action is not enabled”.The TOC.select() seems to work fine. The only thing I can think of that might be a problem is that the app.documents[i] is not set to be the active document, would this matter? If so, how would I go about this? Or any idea what the problem could be otherwise? Chee

Its tiresome.  This is a white vector logo, no background. Sure it comes out of libraries ok with a transparent background but in the mean time all we get is a white rectangle. How do we fix this?

Hello everyone,does anyone have a download file/package for InDesign and Photoshop from 2020/2021? Unfortunately, my PC can no longer be updated and is stuck on Windows 10 version 1909. The newer versions of InDesign are not compatible with this older operating system. Sadly, Adobe Support doesn’t have download files for the older versions anymore—only for the last three releases. They therefore advised me to ask here in the community, as someone here might be able to provide me with the download file.PS: I have an active subscription, so I really only need the download file, which I can then link again with my Creative Cloud account.I’m hoping someone might still have this old download somewhere on their PC and would be willing to share it with me.You would be my lifesaver.Best regards

I just finished creating an interactive pdf but the text boxes I created wont expand when the text box is full, it keeps going but wont to the next line (I dont know how to explain it). Is there a way to have an expandable interactive text box or would I need to use another app?

Olá, pessoal!Já tem algum tempo que o comando CTRL+Z não está funcionando adequadamente no InDesign.Ele deixou de ser ilimitado e agora só permite 3 ou 4 comandos de desfazer.Já desinstalei e resinstalei, já voltei a versões anteriores, e não consigo corrigir o problema.Alguém pode me ajudar?

Started out of the blue yesterday - I cannot get my selection tool back to normal. It won’t select items in file due to this little box hanging out with is - see image. How do I get my standard selection tool back?

Hallo in die Runde,hat jemand eine Idee, wie ich ein Objektformat in der Library speichern kann? Konkret geht es darum eine farbige Textbox mit bestimmten Attributen und Textformatierungen in der Library zu speichern. Ziehe ich das Objekt in die Library und dann wieder in ein Dokument, hat er mir die Attribute der Box nicht mehr (Farbe, Eckenabrundung etc.). Deshalb hatte ich die Idee das Ganze als Objektformat anzulegen, was ja prima klappt, nur kann ich das nicht in der Library zur Verfügung stellen.Lösungsvorschlag?!VG, Heidi

Hi!Maybe the community can help me with this: When exporting a InDesign-document to Adobe PDF/X-4:2010 for prepress/print, I get a warning about color separation inconsistency. When checking this out, it points to the ”cutting-marks” and to the document-info of the PDF (this is all outside the printing-area). It also warns about the system font Helvetica.  I have never seen this warning before. And even more strange: When I do a preflight of the PDF in smaller chunks of pages, everything is ok. The PDF-document have 336 pages. Translation, screenshots:Registreringfärg = Special colourÖvertryck av/på = Overprint on/off I work in:Adobe Acrobat, version 2025.001.20841 (Creative Cloud Standard)Adobe InDesign, version 21.0.1 (Creative Cloud Standard)Mac Studio Sequoia 15.6.1 /Marta

We use Google's Material Symbols fonts for icons in our documents. This works fine in InDesign 2025, but if I open a file containing Material Symbols in InDesign 2026, it immediately crashes. The same goes for assigning the font to text within a document. Immediate crash.

Hallo ihr Lieben, ich habe ein Problem, bei dem ich Eure Hilfe benötige. Ich arbeite mit InDesign und habe dort eine preisliste erstellt, mit vielen Bildern. Die setze ich als Photoshopdateien ein, weil sie Freigestellt sind. Die Preisliste hat einen hellen Blauton im Hintergrund, der mitgedruckt wird. Nun ist es so das ich einen neuen Drucker bekommen habe, einen OKI C824.  Und der druckt zwar alles super toll aus, allerdings setzt er um die die Bilder einen dunkleren Kasten in blau. Also alles was ich in Photohop auf transparent habe wird in dem Ausdruck dunkler dargestellt. Ich habe schon alles Mögliche versucht, nichts funktioniert so recht. Auch ein PDF hat mir nicht weitergeholfen.  Hat jemand von Euch einen Schimmer, welche Einstellung ich wählen muss, damit das nicht mehr passiert?

I am helping a friend to get her book published, after the people she worked with ripped her off. Long story, won't bother you with details. I used to work in an advertising company that used Quark Xpress. So I am not totally new to setting up pages with text and images. But I am a mere beginner in InDesign. I managed to set up the content pages of the book. Now I am working in a separate document to create the book cover back and front. And the program is driving me insane!Today's hot topic is: how to get the (text) objects on the book cover to NOT align to baselines?When I move the frames with the title and subtitles, they seem to stick to the baselines. How do I stop that? FYI: This is a very simple book layout. Practically no illustrations, just a bunch of stories with headlines. I figured out how to do that. But the cover is causing me headaches. Can anyone point me to a thorough InDesign tutorial for MacIntosh? One that clearly shows where everything is. I know this pro

Bonjour à tous !Je souhaite pouvoir travailler sur mes fichiers Indesign aussi bien depuis mon poste sur mon lieu de travail que de chez moi, en télétravail, ce sont des fichier très lourds, parfois plus d' 1 Go.Je me lance sur Creative Cloud et ai partagé mon 1er fichier en ligne, j'arrive tout à fait à l'ouvrir sur Indesign sur mon poste perso (compte adobe différent de celui du pro) cependant mes images en lien ne sont pas conservées, en tout cas pas toutes... celles que j'ai rajoutées récemment ne gardent pas leur lien, celles qui existaient déjà sur le fichier ( car il s'agit d'une mise à jour de texte et visuels d'un fichier pré-existant) apparaissent comme étant bien reconnues et pas de pb de lien manquant. > déjà ça je trouve ça bizarre...J'ai l'impression qu'il est impossible de faire un assemblage.MES QUESTIONS :> Faut-il travailler sur un fichier en ligne ou créer un projet pour avoir mes Links ??> Si on crée un projet, peut-on uploader les dossiers de links images

HelloI am working on a book that includes colored Arabic diacritics that should appear in front of letters using custom OpenType font for that purpose, however due to the direction of Arabic (RTL) the diacritics in InDesign appear behind characters like this:Screenshot 2026-01-21 091418.pngIs there any solution for this?.Thanks.

Whereas in previous versions font tracking was fine, in the new version (on Window 11 Pro) I am getting irregular spacing with some characters crowding together. It is happening with several fonts that have never previously caused problems. The only workaround i've found is adding a carriage space at the end of the paragraph, which causes the spacing to snap into the correct position.

I would like to check whether Adobe provides any native or in-built solution to convert an IDML (InDesign Markup Language) file into a JSON format. Currently, we are exploring options to process IDML files programmatically and convert the content into a structured JSON representation for downstream processing. Please let us know if there is any official guidance, documentation, or best practice recommended by Adobe for this use case.

Hi thereI get this error number: 89867, whrn I want to place a PDF – anybody knows why/what to do?Regards Jannie Skærmbillede 2026-01-27 kl. 06.36.00.png

Whenever I try to access my file, the program crashes. On the occasions it does open, it crashes again when I duplicate spreads, export the file as a PDF, or save it under a different name, displaying an “unexpected error” message. I’ve also tried downloading older versions, but the issue persists. I’m unable to open or convert the file in the 2025 version either, as it crashes during the process. I have already submitted crash reports, so please if anyone can give me UPDATES on all probably 20 reports I have submitted the last couple days, it would be nice. 

Hi -- I'm working on a form for a client that has a rating system using these color-coded circles. There are four colored circles in a row, and the user of the interactive PDF is to choose one. Naturally, radio buttons make the most sense. However, as you see in the PDF (right-hand side of screen shot), it displays this awful square inset. I don't see any way in InDesign to adjust this so that the circles stay solid and only display an asthetically-pleasing indicator of some sort (checkbox, radio circle, outline, etc. ) when clicked.  I've tried leaving them solid circles in InDesign and then adding radio buttons in Acrobat, but it still doesn't look the best. Is there something simple or creative I'm missing that would make this PDF form look better? Screenshot 2026-01-26 at 10.34.22 PM.png
