InCopy on the web (beta) "Share for Text Editing (beta) this function is not yet available in InDesign in Italian even in version 21. Why? When will it be released?Is there a release timeline?King regardsfilippo
I've done this before, but it always feels a bit slow. It seems to take a long time.I need to first check if the myDat group exists, then verify if it contains the dat1@A@B@C style.If the myDat group doesn't exist or the dat1@A@B@C style is absent, create them.If they exist, read the values of A, B, and C into temp1, temp2, and temp3 respectively.Of course, A, B, and C are variables—I'll assign values to them in other ways.Thanks.
Hi,I am a university student trying to help a professor fix a template with a broken numbering system. I have been seeking help on the forums for a month. While the responses have provided helpful suggestions for troubleshooting, I have not been able to identify the issue in my document. I am wondering if there are any adobe forum admins who would be able to connect me with a product expert for a support session.Thank you.
Buen día, preciso la versión 19.5.4 de InDesign pero no la encuentro disponible en Creative Cloud.
Bonjour,Je travaille avec la dernière version d'in design sous Mac OS Mojave, et IMPOSSIBLE d'assembler mes fichiers pour un export vers nos clients. Mon fichier est propre, aucune erreur ne remonte dans le panneau de contrôle d'assemblage, je choisis le nom et l'emplacement du futur dossier, et invariablement, quel que soit le document, voici ce que m'affiche indesign:Une idée de ce que je peux faire ?
Hi, I tried to find a specific color. In my case a Pantone color. But there were no objects in the document with that color, so it was not possible to use “Find Color.” I had to remove “style by style” to find out what format this color has. Is there a better and faster way to find such "hidden" colors? Thanks!mycc Indesign, Windows 11, latest versions
Hi, I am ready to jump out a window with this one. I have an object style applied to two text frames (image attached), which applies a stroke and shading, auto-size, fixed width. One style is for a single column, one is for a double column. I can't apply these attributes in the paragraph styles, because in the double column, it treats the text as two single columns, and doesn't apply shading and a stroke in the gutter.However, I can't offset the bottom stroke in the object style, which means the shading in that style projects below it. Adjusting inset spacing in the object style has no effect. I'm an experienced ID user, but not an expert. This has me absolutely stumped. And frankly, close to tears with frustration. Any ideas?
why are the lines not even when splitting the paragraph??
I have two questions regarding paragraph styles for my article i'm working onFirst, how can I get a line between columns as a paragraph style? second, how can I get a line across the entire paragraph (that was split into 2) - when I try line below it only goes on the second side - how can I get a stlye that will give it to me across the entire thing?

Es handelt sich um die Datei für einen Buchumschlag. Sie ist in Indesign v 20 erstellt. Nach dem Öffnen in Indesign v 21 sind die verknüpften Bilddateien nicht mehr dieselben. Außerdem fehlt der Anschnitt.Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, v20 zusätzlich zu v21 zu installieren?
Hello everyone! I’m having an issue with Adobe InDesign — my files keep getting corrupted, and I haven’t been able to recover them. Has anyone experienced this before or knows an effective way to fix or recover corrupted InDesign files? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I’m trying to display mongolian script in Indesign correctly. The writing is displayed differently in Word and Indesign (see image below), while the same font is being used: “Mongolian Baiti”. Using a different font, such as “Mongolian BaiZheng Pua” results in the same differences between Word and Indesign. The same happens on other computers at my workplace, and my publisher’s computer. The author has stated the the writing in Word is correct, while the one in Indesign is not.Can anyone tell me how to display the Mongolian script correctly in Indesign?
I’m writing a plug-in for InDesign, but I keep losing my JS code changes when I close the tool or ID crashes.But in the editor, the code is marked as dirty when I make changes; and then that’s cleared when I “save” it. But if I look at the JS file on disk (using the dev tool’s “Open folder” command), it doesn’t reflect my changes. There’s no “show in Explorer” option in the context menu in the left pane of the UXP tool, and “Copy link address” doesn’t work; it just copies the filename, not the path. And the “Filesystem” tab is useless: It contains nothing, and the “add folder to workspace” button does nothing. So… are people just using some other tool and still littering their code with alerts to debug?
Not sure how this is happening but any placed images come in at half their actual size. JPGs exported from PSD 72dpi...
how can i get more spacing around the drop cap?
I have a 200+ page document I've been formatting only to discover that I cannot apply my parent pages to selected pages. I have multiple authors who need specific header names on their works, and I do not want to click and drag the parent pages 100 times 😞 The bottom of the file does allow me to right click and apply parent to selected pages, but the top does not. It doesn't have an option to apply to selected pages anymore, and it only applies to the entire document, like so:
Hello, recently I have been having some rendering issues with Adobe InDesign: Problem: All elements become invisible once text boxes are applied (as well as a software crash)Frames remain visible and intractable (selectable, editable, highlightable), but content does not render on the page.(The issue persists across fresh installs and different files) Corruptive element: Text FramesError Message: Preflight: Overset text (1 characters)Device: macOSTemporary fix: Creating a new document (however the bug returns)Measures taken: Updated, quit and reinstalled the application, changed GPU/Zoom Performance and Display Performance settings, resized frames, changed text alignment and size, changed preview settings Is there anything else I could try or do? Thank you!

(I have a legal serial number) Is it still possible to get a code from Adobe?How can I get our CS6 to work?
Just uploaded to Indesign 21.0. I copied over MakeBookletScript 2016 but the script is not working. Does anyone know how to fix it or where I can download another script that works? Screen shot attached. Thx.
Depuis la version 2026, lors du déplacement je n'ai plus le viseur qui indiquait le centre de l'objet déplacé.Quelqu'un saurait-il si il est possible de réactiver cette foncitonnalité ?
Not really an issue but I'm just curious – on a Mac when using Cmd+alt+c to fit frame to content in a text box, it usually only adjusts the height of the box to fit the text, but very occasionally it will change the width of the box as well to fit to the longest line of text – anyone know why this happens?
I have made my backgrounds from Photoshop (CMYK colour profile) and imported the .psd file on indesign.When I export my design from Indesign as a jpg it washes out the colour while when I export it in PDF it is fine. I have attached a screenshot of the banner design (on the left is from how it views on PDF and on the right, if I import it as an image into Figma (showing it for client reviews)I mean my only concern is that I don't get the washed out colour when they print it out and I am assuming that since it looks fine on PDF, i hope it is fine when printed? And is it because I am showing a CMYK file in jpeg and imported into a web platform that it looks washed out?I have tried to test it out a bunch of times:exporting the actual background from Photoshop as a jpeg and importing it into Powerpoint, Figma to see how it looks like and it kept the rich dark colourBut when I do add the photoshop backgrounds on InDesign and export as jpeg - colour washes out.****Thank you! Hope someone has
Hi everyone,I’m experiencing an issue with Adobe InDesign 21.0 and XML mapping. After opening my file in the new version, my tags — which previously had assigned colors in an earlier InDesign version — still appear with their colors in the Tags panel, but the colors no longer display in the layout after mapping.In the Structure panel, I can see the mapped text and image areas, but they appear as simple text fields without the colored tags that would help me identify them easily. This makes it difficult to verify which tags are applied where. I even tried reassigning new colors to the tags, but nothing changed, the colors still don’t show in the layout.Has anyone found a way to fix it?Thanks for any guidance!
