I came across this panel here. Later, I realized it was exactly the functionality I needed.https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/how-to-convert-units-within-a-dialog-window/m-p/14151789#M545441I've been tinkering with it for a while but haven't gotten it to work. When I select “Setting,” it executes the function below it. If “All (A, B, C)” is checked, it sequentially executes the three functions A, B, and C. Otherwise, it executes only one function.When selecting “only open position,” it only opens the selected path.Thanks.//Open the path, such as the shortcut location: //Base path, Local path var bPath = app.scriptPreferences.scriptsFolder.parent.parent; var zh_CN = bPath.fsName; var localShortcut = zh_CN + "\\" + "InDesign Shortcut Sets" + "\\"; function ABC() { onlyA(); onlyB(); onlyC(); } function DEF() { onlyD(); onlyE(); onlyF(); } function onlyA() { var doSomething; } function onlyB() { var doSomething; } function onlyC() { var doSomet

As a designer, you can access and manage feedback using the Review panel in InDesign. Check out the help document here to know how to access the Review panel.     1. Why am I not receiving notifications from stakeholders?  After the reviewer provides feedback, you will receive a notification through the Creative Cloud application and through an email sent to you. If the email doesn’t show up, please check your junk/spam folder or refer to the best practices thread in the community.    2. Can I hide annotations while working on the reviewer’s comments?  Yes you can! Sometimes too many annotations can be confusing.   To hide annotations on the layout, click the Hide annotations button at the lower-right bottom of the panel. To show the annotations click the button again.    3. How can I filter comments by reviewers?   The filter option is

Hi everyone! I’m working on a long InDesign document and need help with managing the table of contents. Is there a way to automate TOC updates so that when I add or rearrange pages, it refreshes automatically instead of me having to manually rebuild it each time? Any tips or best practices?

Hello Indesign Community,we are preparing a fine art print for a client.Our pictures are grey/8bit converted RGB.In photoshop (and on our Canon Imageprograf printer) blacks are great.But in indesign pictures flatten out to grey. No real blacks. Also in exported PDF.We tried different color profiles. No success. The printing company says, there is no black in the file, but when we open the linked files in PS everything is great.preview in Indesign vs. Photoshop. Any experience with that problem? Would be a great help!Oh, we just print the K channel for fine art. So no rich black discussion, please 🙂 Oliver  

Bonjour, Lorsque je souhaite ouvrir un document InDesign sur l'application InDesign, j'ai ce message d'erreur qui apparaît :j'ai essayé de descendre de version, sans changement. Je suis sous Windows 11 Professionnel. 

Hi there,I've been trying to export a PDF magazine as spreads from an INDB file (InDesign Book including multiple INDD files).The problem is: if a file ends on an even page (left page), the next file begins on an odd page (right page), but InDesign seems incapable of exporting both pages as a single spread. Instead, ID exports the last page from the first file as a single page, then the first page of the other file as another single page. The last pages are correctly merged in a spread.The first file has an even number of pages: it ends on an even page (left page). The exported PDF: the second page (last page from the first INDD file) gets exported as a single page, as well as the third page (wihch is the first page of the second file). Pages 4 & 5, on the other hand, are exported as a spread, as expected.  Now since spreads are considered "single" pages by Adobe Acrobat, it doesn't seem possible – as far as I know – to re-organize the PDF file pages a

While I am starting to feel that I really understand how to work in ID (maybe i am dillusioned?), of course with the gracious help of the members of this awesome community, there is a problem that keeps recurring again and again. And i feel so helpless because i just cannot undertand what is causing it:Many times at the bottom of a text frame there is a large white space (sometimes at the beginning). There is pleanty of room for more lines of text to fit in and from the next threaded text frame and in the next frame there are just a few lines in that paragraph. SO why is it breaking and throwing too much to the next frame? This is what I have tried:1. Turned off all keep options.2. Inspected hidden break charachtres etc.3. Checked all paragraph options like space before and after etc.4. Everything I can think of And I still cannot ace it. I would invest a lot of money for an add-on that whenever the text doesn't fill to the end of the text frame it says:"The reason this

When using  if (!confirm('Please confirm!'),Only A1(); and A2(); require confirmation.A3() no need confirm.Do I need to move  A3();  outside of  main();? function main(){ if (!confirm('Please confirm!')) return; A1(); A2(); A3(); } 

Bonjour,  Lorsque je réalise ma table des matières sur un document (et pas sur un autre) les pointillés ne se mettent pas pour tous les items. Aurriez-vous une idée d'où vient le problème ? 

how to place multiple or single pdf to adoe inDesign via C++ SDK plugin. i cannot find the necssary API calls or documentation to achive this.

Is there an add-on that will help me handle styles better? Like highlighting all text with a certain style. Jumping from text w/certain style to next instance of text with that style etc. etc. I know how to do this manually but i would like to automate it.Thank youSF

I'm uploading an .epub file to IngramSpark and—on the surface—everything looks to be fine. However, I'm served with this error message (three times) from IS:(PKG-026): /META-INF/encryption.xml: Obfuscated resource must be a Font Core Media Type (was declared as "application/x-font-ttf" in "OEBPS/content.opf").I assume this is in relation to the 3x fonts I'm using in the .indd file – however, they are all Times New Roman (Regular, Italics and Bold styles) so there shouldn't be a licensing issue. They are .ttf files so I'm assuming that's the issue, but how do I go about rectifying that?

Is there a script that can set a specified hotkey as the default?

Hi, Dear Friends!   resolved. thank you. why can't the poster totally delete his post?   <Title renamed by MOD>

For example: Copy all files under‘..preSetting’ + ‘/bb/’toFolder.desktop + ‘/aa/’My path structure is as follows, with “Script” at the same level as preSetting:D:/OO/Script/myscript.jsxD:/OO/preSetting/bb/This one below seems wrong. //var activeDocPath = String(app.activeDocument.fullName); var copyToPath = String(Folder.desktop + '/aa/'); var sPath = String("/" + PreSetting + '/bb/'); //alert(sourcePath); //alert(pShortcut); var copiedFile = copyFile(sPath, copyToPath); function copyFile(sourcePath, destinationPath) { var fp = Folder(sourcePath) //get the files in MyFiles var f = fp.getFiles(); alert(f); alert(f.length); for (var i = 0; i < f.length; i++) { //try { if (!f[i].exists) { throw new Error('File not found: "' + sourcePath + '".'); } else { var dup = File(destinationPath); f[i].copy(dup) return dup; } } }  

Hi,We are signing our InDesign extensions using the ZXPSignCmd-64bit commandhttps://github.com/Adobe-CEP/CEP-Resources/blob/master/ZXPSignCMD/SigningTechNote_CC.pdf We have recently started using Digicert certificate and it appears the new signing requirements are as per the link EV Authenticode Signing using SignTool (digicert.com) I would like to know if there are any update to the instructions for signing InDesign extensions to align with the updated guidance from DigiCert Thanks

Hi , Can anyone help with this issues?I created a book in InDesign over a year ago. I am on a Mac computer with Big Sur 11.7.4 - It says on the adobe site that Indesign works with this software - but now I am being told Ihave to upgrade? I do not wnat to upgrade as I want Big Sur for specific features . So I cannot access my book from the InDesign app - It offered a "conversion" but I press that and it stays at 0? Is there anyway for me to get access? Thank you

I have now followed all instructions. I have uninstalled all apps, used the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool, and performed a complete, clean reinstallation of InDesign 20.5. The Indexing feature is still completely broken. The 'Index' option is missing from Find/Change, and the Topic Levels dialog does not work. Any ideas? The tech told me he would escalate and get back to me in 4 hours, it has been 4 Days.

Hello!I'm required to download InDesign (and other Adobe Creative Cloud programs) for a class I'm taking at my university. However, every time I try to download InDesign, it says that my computer is "Not Compatible." Whenever I click on the "Not Compatible" button, I get this message: "If you would like to install InDesign, you must update your system" (I attached an image of the pop-up if that helps)! However, when I go to update my computer, it shows that I'm all up-to-date (I also attached an image of the message). I'm not very tech-savvy, but I'm pretty sure my computer should be compatible with InDesign and other Adobe Creative Cloud Programs. I use a MacBook Air that I got in January of 2016. Let me know if there are any solutions that you know of!Thanks!

Gostaria de expor minha indignação em relação a obrigação de fazer upgrade de hardware para utilização de recursos inúteis em se tratando da finalidade do software. Em vez de serem inclusivos, estão cad vez mais gananciosos e dificultosos, mesmo cobrando caro e recebendo pelo serviço.Qual o problema de vocês? Até o momento que forem inúteis frente as novidades.Como pode não poder abrir um arquivo de InDesign por incompatibilidade, Deveria processar vocês por cobrar por um serviço que me impedem de utilizar

Hi there,   Is it possible to add padding, background and rounded borders to text automatically?   Something like this:   The above image was done with a shape behind text, but wondered if it can be done with just a text box?   Thanks<Title renamed by MOD>

Hi there, I'm an InDesign newbie, self taught. I am making a zine that is tabloaid size (11x17 inches) I have my spreads in InDesign setup and would like a PDF booklet to take into kinkos to print. When I go to "print booklet" and change my printer to postscript it keeps cutting off my PDF because the page size isn't correct. I can't change the page size in postscript because it's greyed out. If there is a better way I'm all ears, I just want a booklet, print ready file I can fold and staple on my own! Thanks 🙂

Estou fazendo um catalogo extenso em um PC e comprei outro para continuar o trabalho, porem o arquivo nao abre e minha nuvem simplesmente nao esta atualizando mesmo tendo espaço.  Ja tentei tambem usando outra nuvem, e passando os arquivos por pendrive, com todasa as imagens linkadas. O suporte da Adobe nao conseguiu me auxiliar. O que poderia estar acontecendo e como posso arrumar esse erro?

I am converting my print book into an epub in indesign. Most of the formatting is straight-forward, except for a contrapuntal poem (a poem that is two columns, both of which can be read individually or all together if the reader reads across the columns). Due to its formatting, I converted it to an image within the epub. I want to make sure I'm taking the correct approach to the alt text for the image to ensure that those using screen readers will be able to read the poem how it's intended to be read.  Below is how I wrote the alt text. Is this too long? If so, what's the best way to go about conveying this information accessibly?  This poem, titled "boundaries," is a contrapuntal poem. It's structured as two poems placed side by side, separated by a vertical line between them. Both poems can be read individually, or can be read together by reading across the vertical line, forming a new poem.The poem on the left reads as follows: it does not serve me, and stil
