Hi! So I'm creating a report template that needs to be fully accessible in PDF form. I've been doing a bunch of research and there's two questions that I'm trying to wrap my head around.  1. How does the Articles panel reconcile a difference in the panel order vs. style hierarchy? For example, I have a text box that has text in this order: H2 > p > H3 > p and then a second text box that starts a new section with H1. I put the former text box into the Articles panel first, then the latter text box. Will this be read in the correct order, even though the second text box trumps the style hierarchy with H1? 2. Is it bad to have a lot of sections within the tags panel? (like the automaticall generated <sect> tags)My understanding is that each new "story" in InDesign generates a new <sect> tag. My document has a lot of separate stories. This is partly bc I'm setting up a template and I don't want to link all of the text boxes in the document bc I don't kno

Hi !I've been working on this all day and have been able to find only half an answer so I come here full of hope… ! 😃I have a table which I import from Excel. In this table I have empty cells sometimes and I want to put a "-" in them.I tried this grep request to find the empty spaces : (?<!.)$Which seems to work, it finds empty spaces in the format I searching when I press "Next"I tried to "replace" the empty spaces using : $0-Which, oddly enough, works when I press "Replace" but doesn't when I press "Replace all"Here is my problem then, how can I make it work all at once ? Since I don't want to replace them all at once… ^^''Thanks in advance !

I recently got a new computer and am trying to edit some .indd files (via 2022). They open just fine, but when I double click a text box to edit the text, the caret doesnt appear. I am able to move text boxes around/select/delete/etc. but no caret appears to change the text. Any ideas?    <Title renamed by MOD>

I am working on a Mac, OS Sonoma 14.6.1, using InDesign 2024, and I'm getting an error that says I cannot open an indb file as a book. I just openned this file a couple of hours ago as a book. It is saved to my university's server, and I am accessing it via VPN. Any idea why this happens? I have saved the file locally as well to my desktop, and I get the same error message when I try to open that version of the file. 

Possibly a better fit for a Spark doc (if Spark still exists)   In my publish online (PoL) experiences,  - a PoL doc opens in a default size (either full width or height depending on the device) - a challenge to scroll - I don't see a Parallax setting, would this need to be an HTML insert from AE or a diff program?   Any other challenges / work-arounds / experience is appreciated!   I'm using InDesign cc 19.5   <Title renamed by MOD>

Hello community!I have a huge table that spreads over 40 pages in an InDesign file.   This morning after opening the file again, the table looks empty and uneditable.   However, if I right-click and do "Edit from copy Editor" I can see all the content.   Does anyone have an idea how to revert the table to the previous appearance?   Here is what I tried so far:1. export imdl 2. export template file 3. Copy/paste the table onto other files 4. delete all the other spreads to see if display performance was causing the issue Please help me guys!     <Title renamed by MOD>  

Hi,I'm trying to create peg labels for a children's classroom.I want to merge my .csv class list into an indesign document where I have 6 peg labels per page.HOWEVER - Each label has a picture of a rocket behind the name but the rockets are different colours which is where I'm getting stuck:a) Creating a multiple merge gives me the same coloured rocket duplicated across the page.b) Merging the names into 6 text boxes on top of pre-drawn rockets gives me the same name repeated 6 times. The only way I can see to make it work is to link the rocket background image as a merged image, i.e. create a colum of linked imafes in my .csv file. Is there a way to achieve this without having separate linked images? Thanks

Hi InDesign Community, Recently, I have had issues with printing InDesign documents.  We have our brand gold colour which is CMYK: C35, M45, Y90, K30 For some reason, when I export the PDF it looks a gold colour, however, when I go to print, it turns out a dark green colour instead.  Would anyone know the reason for this inconsistency? Could it be the print settings when I export the document? Or if anybody has had this issue before with certain colour codes and how they fixed it? Thanks so much!     <Title renamed by MOD>

Hello, Today I had to configure Apple Mail on my Macbook (M2) that I didn't use before.  The funny gift was if Apple Mail is open in InDesign some shortcuts doesn't work, like space bar (hand tool) ora duplicate object holding down Alt.If I close Apple Mail the InDesign shortcuts start working again. Have you ever notice that? The same thing is happening with my colleagues Best,Francesco
