InDesign

When exporting an ID document to a PDF for printing I would like to know about image quality settings in the output settings dialogue in creating a PDF. I work on my ID with 16 bit TIFF images for these are what I've edited from originally and provide no loss in quality. In the export box can change the downsample resolution to 300ppi and change the export of format to TIFF from high quality JPG. My aim is to send the highest quality product to the printer without compromise or risk of artifacts that can happen with 8 bit JPG. Is what I'm doing best practice or should I just be using high quality JPG with maximum quality setting at export? 

The roblems occured after a power cutout on our farm.I've tried removing and installing the font in creative cloud desctop. I've also closed the software and stopped it in task manager.It always starts again and it's slowingt things down. In the Background Tasks window its been "installing times new roman" since yesterday and nothing happens.What should I do?I'm using th newest update of indesign 21,0 x64

Há alguma maneira prática de importar equações feitas no Word com equation ou do Google docs? 

Hey team, We've got a bit of a manual chore daily: we create 15 to 20 versions of the same design, all in different dimensions (various heights, widths, and orientations like portrait and landscape). My main question is, can we save a huge amount of time by designing the first version and then having it automatically replicate and proportionally scale across all the other required pages? Does anyone know of a way that can handle this kind of mass resizing? Thanks

Not sure if this is new behaviour after the latest update. Two weird group behaviours I noticed:1. When I have items inside a group and select 2 of them and press command+g, it does nothing. However when I put them inside a group outside of that group and then drag the group inside the other group it does that without any issues. It also works when I select multiple groups and press command+g.2. When a group is minimized in the layer panel, I can't drag anything inside of it. While the expected behaviour would be that anything dragged onto a closed layer/group would place that item on top within the layer/group, OR expand the layer/group so it can be placed inside.3. When I have a group selected and place a new object, it doesn't place it inside the group but on top of it. Even though I double clicked the object so I was actually inside the group. That makes 0 zense. Would be nice to at least have the option to change that behaviour. 4. Why is it a single click to change the group

Well, this has thrown me for a loop. Amazon is telling my client that it no longer accepts files made using OEBPS. That's how InDesign exports epubs. I know of no other way of making them. Help??? Evidently, other recent epubs have exported without OEBPS, but this particular file doesn't. What am I doing wrong? Google AI says, "The 'OEBPS' folder is a standard part of the EPUB format structure, so it will still be present in the final exported file, regardless of your settings." I've tried rebuilding the file, but it's still giving me OEBPS.  What's driving me especially bonkers about this is that Amazon was so clear about communicating that the MOBI format would end, but I have heard nary a peep about OEBPS until this emergency. Did I mention I'm sick and should be in bed? 😉 

It is possible to make a InDesign book print or pdf as spreads. But the last page of an document/chapter and the first page of the next document/chapter are always single pages! Therefore many dtp-ers choose not to use the InDesign book option, but make the complete book in one document. I would love to send my complete InDesign book as pdf in spreads for email review. Please let the first and last page of the book documents be exported as spreads, as if it was made in one document.

Is there any way to add additional tags other than the 10 that are listed in the Export Tagging list in the Paragraph style options window? 

Hi, I cannot see any of recently online published items within the dashboard: any idea anyone about?   <Title renamed by moderator>

As I have recently struggled with a nasty issue with macOS Tahoe straight after the update—luckily now solved—where the solutions could either be create a new admin user to start afresh or… wipe the SSD to start afresh with no migration allowed because the issue was in the user library, I would like to create a backup routine with Carbon Copy Cloner of just the settings folders for the apps I use for work. I need to find all folders related to at least the apps I use: InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Lightroom, Acrobat, Bridge. Perhaps this could be expanded to include also all other apps for other people who would like to feel safe. Thank you!

I am encountering an annoying problem with InDesign lately. I have SAVE AS my document and when reopened, even after a PC restart (Win 11), the document is filled with random characters in text, bullets, tables, hyperlinks. Original documents from WORD 365 for Win not linked to ID but pasted. This happens when working from home on a connected (not wi-fi) network and in the office.  Example below:Is there a workaround besides having to restart the laptop again and again? Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Hi there,  The SHARE button in InDesign has a history of not working for me. I am running it on a MacBook Pro with macOS Ventura 13.4.1. I'm on Adobe Creative Cloud 5.11.0.522.1. The usual issues I have after clicking on the share button include the wheel spinning and the window never loading, or after clicking the update link button, the wheel spins continuously with no advance. Usually, after a restart or 2, I can get the window back up and running properly. This week, however, when I click the share button - I get a completely black window. Today, after a restart, I am getting a window with "Share for review" at the top and a continuously spinning wheel. The Share for Review feature is an awesome addition to the app. But, I'm not sure what the purpose of this feature is - if I can't depend on it to work every time I try to use it. Just looking for some consistency, and not having to hold my breathe everytime I click the Share button! HELP!

After updating to 21.0 I seem to not be able to upload a large catalog file that previously I was able to. I have done all of the following:Completely logged out of Creative CloudLogged off of InDesignRebooted my computer (3 times)Tried uploading much smaller documents (they uploaded) The file I'm trying to upload is 69.6 MB and approximately 157 pages long.When I try to upload a file, I use the process for uploading, choose all of my preferences and when I hit "Publish", nothing happens. No upload window. Nothing.Computer:Mac Studio (running parallels)OS Sequoia 15.6.1Windows (parallels) 11

v.21.0, Windows 11 x64After restarting Indesign, all custom toolbars disappear, and instead a long toolbar with all tools/windows appears. I tried to create a new workspace preset, but it's not helped. 

I used the place and link tool to make frames for the sections in the master I manually changed each frame's paragraph style and had to set the text frame options to align centered vertically. When I update the link, those edits are lost. I have these link options checked but it doesn't seem to preserve them.  How can I make it so that only new text would be inherited but the formatting remains the same? Thanks!

A puzzle. My type is printing as outline and I am unable to fix

Been experiencing this weird glitch/lag ever since I installed the new indesign update. Everything works fine and smoothly its just annoying this keeps happening. I just zoom in and out to make the page go back to normal before it happens again. Anyone know how to fix this?

Have other people experienced excessive slowness when opening and saving Indesign documents with Mac OS THOE? (My configuration: MAC STUDIO M2, 32 GB RAM)Even when exporting documents to PDF, the ‘wheel’ spins for a long time.Do you have any solutions?

Hi everyone, I’ve been working with my personal Adobe account, which was linked to my school’s education plan. I saved all my projects on Creative Cloud, assuming they would stay linked to my personal account. Recently, my personal account was removed from the school’s plan since I’m no longer a student, and now all my projects have disappeared from Creative Cloud. Is there any way to recover them? Were the projects tied to the school’s plan, or are they permanently lost? Thanks in advance for any help!

Bonjour, mon pc s'éteint quand j'utilise une fonctionnalité, est ce que quelqu'un peut m'aider ? 

I'm trying to create Interactive PDF using InDesign, but I'm running into couple of issues.When I'm exporting this design  file as Interactive PDF, I'm not able to see this table in the exported PDF. I checked the layers panel and everything looks okay (even asked perplexity for help). I've attached all relevant screenshots. Can someone please help me understand what I'm doing wrong?   

Why is it so difficult in this day and age for two or more people to be working on the same file at the same time? Even when I tell my coworker that I am done working on a file that is stored in the Cloud, when they open the file, they will start working on it and suddenly get this message:  Changes were made on another device. Save the document as s new file to retain your changes. Accepting remote changes may override your changes.  I had saved and closed my file 2-3 minutes prior and then notified them I was out. They were working on it for several minutes when they got that notice. That is a design flaw if you ask me.  We've also experienced issues where the file we save out there can't be opened because it has become corrupted. This happens with INDDL files in particular, but has happened with regular INDDC files.  

ia there a way to turn the tool bar back to the white and grey interface, its hard to see the blue tools in the bar.Thanks!   <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi everyone, Has anyone else the same problem on Windows app? The Ctrl+Alt+C command which was previously adjusting the text block to its contents, doesn't work anymore. Instead of it the app opens a video recording? But when I do click right on the text block and find "Adjustment" option, I still see the same Ctrl+Alt+C command on it?
