Hello, I have more than 1700 INDD files, and I want to convert them into Interactive PDFs, but unfortunately, Batch Converter takes 30 minutes for each file, so the project is taking a lot of time. Is there another method?

HI, all of a sudden I am now seeing the image below, and I cannot align my tabs properly    Do you have any idea where this could be going wrong?   I have no styles assigned to it. This is a brand-new document.     <Title renamed by MOD>

I have a parent page with a logo at the bottom. In the past, the logo was always visible, even if the advertisement I placed on these pages was a full bleed. Now it is not visible when I place (import) a full bleed graphic on the page. It does not look like there are any layers to arrange, and I have no idea what setting I must have changed inadvertently.      <Title renamed by MOD>

Hi! I have an interactive button made up of rectangles (see grey boxes in image). When I click a separate button I want to show this button (essentially hiding some of the coloured boxes). The problem is that the coloured boxes are all links to pages in the indesign document and when I have the grey rectangle button turned on it seems I can't click "through" the button, even though there's no element there. Is there any way to solve this without making every single grey rectangle into a separate button? Thank you /Kaj     <Title renamed by MOD>    

Hi all, I'm encountering a weird problem in InDesign, where text randomly turns white when I apply paragraph styles. At first it only happened when I tried to paste text from a Word document into a text box and then tried to apply a paragraph style, but now it also happens when I switch from one paragraph style to another. Some more info:For some reason I can't paste without formatting (the option is also grayed out in the menu), which means text is always highlighted turquoise when it appears in the document. That in itself wouldn't be a problem (although it's odd), but as I mentioned, once I try to apply a paragraph style to it, the whole text simply turns white. This doesn't appear to be an override, and thus I also can't use the button to clear overrides to get rid of whatever is being applied. I've tried pasting with CMD+V from Word docs, Google Docs and Scrivener, and I've tried importing text the proper way. Does anybody know what's happening? Any help would be greatly appreciat

Hello,  Does anyone know what the name is for the bit of paper that goes around a book adveryising what's inside? It can go both vertically or horizontally. I can't figure it out. And, can I make it with InDesign?  Photos attached.  Many Thanks.

Using this feature has crashed InDesign several times. Would suggest addressing for better compatibility/usage between the online adobe link and InDesign.

Hi, as of last week my Indesign crashes every time I go to open a new document from the main starting page. The program starts up normally, and seems to work fine when opening existing documents. it just crashes every time I select 'new document'. Anyone know how to fix?I'm on the latest indd cc19 and mac 10.14.3.{Renamed by MOD}

Hi   Is there any way with GREP to  search the first and last characters of a line (not paragraph) as it flows in InDesign? Please see example attached.   I'm trying to locate all lines that begin with a hyphen, or terminate with "I" etc so I can reflow them for stylistic purposes, but I'm not sure if GREP can interact with the text flow in this way, and there don't seem to be any hidden characters at automatic line breaks that GREP could locate.   Again this is not about the first character in a paragraph, so '^' isn't any use here I don't think.I'm currently polishing a 400 page book whose author is a bit hyphen/en-dash crazy so having a way to automate this search woud be a lot faster and less error prone.   Is this possible?Many thanksRichard     <TIle renamed by MOD>

As you can see, the superscript (Alef) must be over the (lam), also the (damma) must be over the (tah), in both places.

Hello,  I have a script which can convert images to PSD from InDesign via Photoshop. Photoshop however is not able to read the image which indesign is trying to send to photoshop.  It must be something to do with the next work.  I also am not convinced that the script is able to access the output folder properly too...  To be honest I have no idea what is going on - script works fine on local but on a network the script just fails at passing the image to photoshop. It is not a privilage problem as everything the script is doing I can do by hand i.e.  read and write to the following locations.  The script funtions fine it just cannot get the file in question  Any help would be good,  Many thanks,  Smyth     function openInPhotoshopAndConvertToPSD() { // Check if Photoshop is running if (BridgeTalk.getStatus("photoshop") !== "IDLE") { alert("Photoshop is

I have a question about making a total file using Indesign and Excel. We make offers in Indesign in combination with an excelsheet. In the excelsheet is the information which we needed in Indeisgn including a link to the picture we want to include in the indesign file. Since a few months we can't combine including the pictures. Does someone know if there is a problem with Indesign, maybe an update? That it doesn't work anymore?  The problem is only with the pictures, the text we get without any problems vissable in Indesign.  I hope there is someone here who can help me.   <Title renamed by MOD>  

Noticing that the asset cloud link has the ability to redline and comment, but that the redlines do not come over in InDesign as they do when you import Adobe comments/redlines. This feature would be hugeeee for our industry.    <Title renamed by MOD>

The program suddenly closes when trying to edit a specific part of the text, and I don’t know why. This happens multiple times.     <Title renamed by MOD>

When I insert text inside an object like a solid square block by selecting it with the Type Tool, I used to be able to double click the handles on the box to remove unwanted space. That doesn't seem to be working any more. And I'm not sure if this is related but when I go to the Object menu and select Content from the dropdown — Graphic, Text and Unassigned are all grey out. At least one of those three would be selectable at all times. I've tried resetting prefs but as usual this never seems to fix anything!   Can anyone help or has this been a intended (but very unuseful) change in InDesign.   I am using version 19.5.   <Title renamed by MOD>

I am publishing an interactive project online for a client, but also want them to be able to download it as a PDF. When I am publishing it, I select "Allow viewers to download the document as a PDF." But when I or anyone else tries to download it, it opens a page that simply says "Not Found" I've tried selecting different PDF presents in the Advanced section to see if that helps, but it doesn't. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a way to resolve it? Thanks!
