InDesign

appreciate there are other threads, but praying someone in Adobe has had their coffee this morning and is getting onto this problemAcross our org people having major issues with indesign particularly on save where its warning the file may be corrupt. 

 Good morning, this has been driving me crazy. So i decided to map it out. I am not really sure what to call the very top Bar, but the areas in green I can click and hold and move the App around, the non-green areas does not move the app. Is this just me? It's so annoyingAny fixes?

Any ideas why InDesign keeps crashing when I save?   <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE AdobeCrashReport SYSTEM "AdobeCrashReporter.dtd"> <crashreport serviceVersion="29.2.0.202509230431_9a64297" clientVersion="29.2.0.202509230431_9a64297" applicationName="InDesign" applicationVersion="21.1.0" build="21.1.0.56" source="Windows-Client" crashType="n/a"> <time year="2026" month="1" day="15" hour="10" minute="6" second="11" timeoffset="-360" timezone="Central Standard Time" crsessionduration="4845"/> <user guid="7005b42c-7b74-410c-9a5c-fa5aecea7c67"/> <system platform="Windows 11 Enterprise" osversion="11.0" osbuild="26200" applicationlanguage="en-us" userlanguage="en-US" oslanguage="en-US" ram="16064" machine="13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1360P" model="Intel64 Family 6 Model 186 Stepping 2" cpuCount="16" cpuType="8664" cpuFreq="2611 MHz" processorArchitecture="9"/> <gpu> <gpuinfo availability="Off Line" adapterCompatibility="NVIDIA" adapterR

I have numerous InDesign files with a lot of text, and hyperlinks interspersed throughout that text. Is there a way to put the hyperlinks on a separate layer so that when I export the file to an Adobe PDF, I can turn the hyperlinks on/off in the layers panel of the PDF? 

Hello to the community,I am using the current last versions of InDesign (21.1) and Illustrator (30.1) on Windows, French versions.I can no longer save InDesign files after having imported an Illustrator artwork. The InDesign file is systematically corrupted. Worse, once imported, even if I remove the artwork, I cannot still save my file. I have already worked from scratch, by saving Illustrator artwork with latest version, creating a new InDesign file: nothing works. I have also deleted all software parameters (from C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\Adobe). Nothing helps.Thank you for your help: I attach below one of the files I want to import, but I have the same problems with other simpler images.To be complete, I did not encounter any problem with previous versions, and with the same files.Regards,Pascal Garin

HiWhen I import an MWWord doc containing links, it seems that InDesign sometimes applies my 'Hyperlink' character style to the links, sometimes not. The only way I know that the Hyperlink style is applied to all links is if i select the text, go to the Hyperlinks window, click on one of the list of selected hyperlinks and then sent the style to "Hyperlink".  But does anyone know what's going on? I"d really like some automated process to unfailingly apply the Hyperlink style to all hyperlinks. Any clues? Thanks!best,Kurt

Need to add "$" to multiple cells in many tables. I'm hoping to automatically, like find and replace. Would there be a GREP for this? It's for French figures, so the "$" is at the end of the cell, i.e., "345 $".

I'm going crazy. I must be. I hate the animated zoom. I am target-zooming and don't want some smooth glide in. I've never selected this option and suddenly it's ON. I've literally read through evey single selection in Preferences. WHERE. IS. IT. 

Looking for a script to make multiple files into PDF but also have the ability to add a password to it from Indesign. To save me keep going into the properties section. Would be a added bonus to if i could change the name of the file to.

why are my options off my screen?? 

why is the spacing not budging when changing it around!?see video

Hi. I have a question. Is it possible to create an interactive checklist in InDesign that adds a checkbox to a given task, which is then checked off and also checked off in the tracker on another page? The tracker will ultimately collect all tasks from the entire document.

I have a document in single page layout with threaded text from page to page based on a master layout and I separate chapters with single page chapter divider based on a different master (chapter divider pages have a background color that expants to page bleed). Each time I place a page break at the end of chapter I manualy insert a new page from master with a chapter divider and text is flowing at the next page. In case I add a new page break on the first page or is needed to add text (e.g. edits) is there a way that the chapter divider page could also follow the text flow automatically at the appropriate page position? Please see images for reference. Thanks

I can no longer Copy any comments in Review window (Share for Review). I should be able to copy the text from the comment directly into the window. But this function is disabled in this version of InDesign. Now I have to manually type text. It was a problem last years resolved by a new version, but in 21.1 InDesign, this problem still appen. What's going on Adobe !? 

Hello, when we try to view our presentation (https://indd.adobe.com/view/xxxx), we only see the header. From the first part of 'interactivity', the page goed blank. When we use the 'Download PDF' function, the presentation is shown in full (but -of course- static).In 'webmaster tools' we see: "13b84ffa-5d50-4ba6-b9bc-a00c947d72ed:1 Refused to execute script from 'https://indd.adobe.com/newrelic_browser/newrelic.js' because its MIME type ('text/html') is not executable, and strict MIME type checking is enabled."Doen anyone have the same issue?

When I export my indesign files to pdf, colored lines appear where the images should be. I've unchecked the GPU, made sure the apps have full disc access and tried different acrobat presets.

Hello,I’m experiencing an issue with InDesign files created by my colleague. Whenever she creates a document using the Inter font and saves it, when I open the file on my computer, all the text that should be Bold, SemiBold, etc., appears in a strange Light version.I’ve tried:Installing the font locally on my computerChecking if Inter is installed as Adobe Fonts, which it isMass replacing the font in the document…but it only works for Regular.When I export, I see the wrong fontThe only current workaround is replacing each instance manually, which is impossible for a catalogue of over 50 pages. When I click on the text, I do see the font is Inter and  it's "bold", though doesn't appear as bold. When I click on "bold" again, then it appears as it should be.Could you please advise on how to resolve this?

Bonjour, J'ai réalisé un catalogue sur InDesign, lors de l'assemblage il manque certaines photos dans le dossier link alors qu'avant de faire l'assemblage l'ensemble des photos étaiten ok, je n'avais aucune erreur. Auriez-vous une solution car à chaque ouverture il manque de nouveau des photos ? Je précise que je l'ai bien importée et non copier/coller. Je vous remercie par avance

When I want to open Indesign, the icon appears for one second in my bar below, but then disappears again. Indesign doensn't want to open. I tried with different versions. See video attached.  I have this problem for some weeks already 

Hi there, hope someone can help me. I set my document Dictionary preferences to Dutch New Rules 2005, and chose Proximity for hyphenation. I also set my paragraph styles accordingly. Then I noticed that the hyphenation is not correct, and I check the Dictionary preferences. To my surprise it is now set to Dutch Old Rules, and hyphenation is set to Hunspell. So I change it back to what is should be, but after a short while it is set back to the wrong settings. The hyphenation itself stays incorrect, I have top manually adjust it.How is this possible? The settings keeps changing back, the hyphenations keeps being wrong. I have never had this problem. 

Hi all   I am looking for a working method or script that will disable hyphenation in all the paragraph styles in an existing document in one go in Indesign Windows 11. I can do it manually, paragraph style by paragraph style but its a long process in large documents.   ThanksJohn

I am working with a numbered list that includes an a couple indented numbered list. Like this:1. Sentence.2. Sentence.3. Sentence.     a. Sentence     b. Sentence     c. Sentence4. Sentencen     a. Sentence     b. Sentence     c. Sentence4. This number should be five but it defaults to 4. If I deleted the a,bc, list, the second No. 4 turns to 5.  Any ideas on how to correct this?
