Adobe INDESIGN se ferme juste après son ouverture

I can’t believe this is happening again. We really should get some sort of discount or refund for all the time we’re wasting lately with this issue.After being solved, this problem shows up again with the last update. I suddenly lose all UNDO steps, past the last four or five, just like what happened a few months ago.If the problem is related with the History panel, JUST DISABLE THE HISTORY PANEL. We didn’t have this issue before the panel, so I guess it has something to do with it. 

I’ve been having major issues with InDesign locking up ever since this update. It doesn’t crash so it doesn’t send a report either. At least two times every day, I need to either force quit the app or restart. It is very frustrating!

When I go to update a review link in InDesign, I keep getting this error message "there was an error updating the artifact". After that, the link does not work for most people. I am signed in to Adobe. Everything is up-to-date.... But this issue still persists. Can Adobe please fix this issue? It's emarassing when I go to send the review link to my leaders and they just get an error message when they try opening it.   <Title renamed by moderator>

This is happening all the time i’m running the most up to date version and most up to date version of windows. I acces files on drop box could this be causing the issue?

So I have sets of illustration in separated artboard (same layer) in Illustrator. But when I am importing it to InDesign, some parts of the illustration is missing. It occurs on some illustration, especially reused graphic asset from Freepik. Funny enough, this isn't happening using the previous version of Indesign. Right now I am using the current latest 21.0 (not beta). What I have done for the workaround;saved into a new file, only the error artboard. not working.saved the error artboard into EPS, works. But I wish everything works in native format.  

CS6 Aktiverung nicht möglichWir besitzen Adobe CS6, welche jetzt auf einem neuen Rechner installiert werden soll, da der vorherige defekt / nicht mehr existent ist. Diese Aktivierung schlägt mit dem Hinweis fehl, dass die Seriennummer bereits aktiviert ist.Der Support teilte mir mit, dass für CS6 keine Aktivierung mehr möglich ist, da die entsprechenden Servern von Adobe abgeschaltet wurden und wir bitte ein Abo abschliessen sollen!Was soll das Ganze? Wir haben eine Dauerlizenz (für viel Geld) erworben, welche wir auch dauerhaft und ohne Einschränkungen nutzen können.Wie sieht dies Lösung hierfür aus?Falls Abobe wirklich Kunden durch die Hintertür untersagt, wäre das praktisch Betrug und ein Fall für eine Strafanzeige.Sorry für meinen Unmut.

I recently updated to Indesign CC 20.0 from 19.0. I used to have this issue with CS2 but I can't remember how I fixed it. When switching to and from the text tool Indesign lags for 5-6 seconds each time. Double clicking on a text box gets the same result, as well as using ESC to exit the text box and return to the pointer tool. I'm using Windows 11. There are 13 fonts in this 26 page document, lots of links but I was not having this issue until just the other day when I updated. I have reset my preferences and that did not help.     <Title renamed by MOD>

My Workflow view is changing of its own according, many times a minute, by itself and it is causing my job to become unworkable.First it was just swapping between Essentials and Touch - I naturally assumed my touchscreen was the issue so disabled it. But now it swapps back and forth between Essentials and Digital Publishing as I am working and I can’t make it stop. I can’t lock the Workflow. My screen is jumping back and forth and I am very frustrated. Can someone tell me what on earth is going on? Please help it’s driving me insane.

I frequently create brochures, and at some point in the project without fail the share for review link stops allowing me to update content. The review links are an integral part of our workflow, and for my non-brochure work they are fine (although I have to update those less frequently), but with my brochure documents it will allow me to create a new link, but after that I can no longer publish any changes. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling InDesign, turned off and on countless times, ensured the document I’m updating is the only one open, packaged then opened the idml and re-saved the document to indd. It just doesn’t work, and it’s really frustrating to explain to our clients that their comments have gone because we had to make a new link (or they get confused, comment on an old link and we don’t make the updates). Any ideas?

Hi,I would like to configure Adobe Indesign Server (service) so that the cache files are cleared every time Adobe InDesign Server starts up. Can this be set via a parameter? Thank you. 

I would like to understand why the new Generative AI options for inDesign that cost credits, were on by default?Briefly, I have ended up with an annual medical report full of hundreds of unwanted, incorrect alt texts that I have had to remove.To add insult to injury, these unrequested alt texts cost credits! There is no simple way to strip these out (tip: please add this feature) I have had to resort to a python script to clean this document This could have been avoided if my inDesign update had offered me this feature via an opt-in dialog.

I’m working with a InDesign template created in earlier versions, where the first page is an even-numbered page (page 2), with automatic page numbering. In version 21, when I place an object on page 3 (for example, an image), InDesign changes the numbering of the first page to 1 and makes it an odd-numbered page (and so on with the page numbering throughout the document); and if I try to manually reassign the number 2 to the first page, the application simply ignores it and keeps it as page 1. The only way I’ve found to keep the first page as an even number is to place it on the first page, select ‘Start page numbering at’ and assign it the number 2. But then, when I add the documents to a book, it forces me to change all the documents back to the ‘automatic numbering’ option, which slows everything down unnecessarily. Does anyone know of a way to avoid this and ensure that the pages retain the order of the template, as in previous versions?

Tengo un archivo en el que he estado trabajando, de repente se ha ido la luz y se me ha cerrado el programa en medio de un guardado, ahora me salta que el archivo esta corrupto con el siguiente mensaje: archivo.indd puede estar dañado. ¿Desea abrirlo de todas formas?. Despues de esto si le doy a OK se cierra el programa directamente, he intentado abrirlo como copia, moverlo al escritorio etc. Dejo el link a wetransfer o si no algun otro metodo.https://we.tl/t-sB3CBrUMWxgU70vN

Hi,Getting an issue with indesign and not recognising the calibri system font installed. From what I can see, there’s a new version of calibri with a latest windows update. V6.26 > V6.27.   Myself and colleagues are effected, and this is spanning across a lot of our documents. Replacing the font does not fully solve the issue as any forms text fields will not update to the font box.  I’ve seen a similar post regarding this with the same issue on times new roman which is marked as resolved but it most certainly not.  FYI, installing calibri via adobe fonts does not work, we are getting a conflict likely due to it already being a system font. We also running the latest version of indesign. Any help on this?

Sorry, the previous post was a bit messy and off-topic.I sorted out my thoughts.I want to collect all the commonly used styles in a B document (assuming the path is "D:/B.indd")When I am working on A.indd, I need to obtain the "Paragraph Line Settings" for B1.I want to get such an interface.for exampleParagraph lineParagraph backgroundGrepThere are two issues that I cannot implement at present:How to access the style of B.indd without opening it.After selecting one of the items, can the content of that item be displayed on the right side.It's roughly like this: This is a piece of code copied from elsewhere./** * @name A的相邻段落样式B替换BNone *///call the makeDialog functionmakeDialog();//$.writeln("[" + psl + "]")function makeDialog() { //the dialog object var theDialog = app.dialogs.add({ name: "Test ", canCancel: true }); //note this would not get grouped styles with (theDialog.dialogColumns.add()) { staticTexts.add({ staticLabel: "source document:" }); staticTexts

InDesign users need a way to easily export documents as print spreads (imposed from reader spreads) from the “print booklet” option. Currently I can either print to my home printer or print to postscript, but not print to pdf. Distiller is no longer up to the task of handling complex postscipt files. Print designers need a way, when print shops request it, to send these types of files. As a layout program, this feature should have been baked in from the beginning. 

Ciao a tutti,dopo l’aggiornamento a Adobe InDesign sto riscontrando problemi molto gravi di stabilità e corruzione file su macOS Sequoia 15.7.4.Problemi riscontrati:rallentamenti generali molto evidenti; blocchi durante salvataggio ed esportazione PDF; crash improvvisi con riavvio forzato del programma; perdita di contenuti dopo il riavvio.  Il problema più grave è la corruzione dei file: dopo alcuni crash, alla riapertura del documento spariscono intere grafiche e testi associati a determinati livelli. Inizialmente pensavo a file corrotti isolati, ma il problema si è ripetuto su diversi documenti, anche creati ex novo.In alcuni casi ho dovuto reinserire manualmente un’intera lingua all’interno di cataloghi prodotti di circa 150 pagine in 7 lingue.Il problema avviene sia con file locali sia su cloud/server/NAS.Ho già provato:reset preferenze; downgrade; verifica file. Senza risultati definitivi. Inoltre sto riscontrando forti rallentamenti anche con Adobe Illustrator, soprattutto nella
