Seems in the last couple weeks more than not InDesign crashes when I save to a pdf. I've tried saving to another location but that doesn't always work. It feels very ramdom.

Hi @MarcShur,

 

Thanks for sharing the details! Adding to what Robert has suggested, you might find this thread helpful: 20.2 Update Crashing Issue. Let us know if rolling back helps or if the crash persists. Looking forward to your update!

Thanks for the link and from reading the thread it's related to me running Typeface.

I just tested creating a pdf without Typeface and no problems. 🙂

What platform and OS version?

Sorry, I should have been more detailed.

Mac Studio, Sequoia 15.3.2

To be more precise, InDesign successfully makes the pdf then immediately crashes afterwards.

Can you go back to previous MINOR - 20.x - versions of InDesign?
