Today Adobe InDesign (current version) won't find two of my installed fonts: Montserrat Bold and Montserrat Regular. These fonts are actively installed on my Windows 10 PC, and I even tried syncing them from Adobe Fonts, but nothing worked. It shows that the fonts are active in Adobe Creative Cloud and InDesign, yet it still appears missing and substitutes it with Minion Pro. Here are the steps I've tried:Restarting InDesignStarting a new document (the font is still missing in new documents as well)Reinstalling the font from Google Fonts (and installed it for all users)Syncing the font from Adobe Fonts (it says the font is active, but it is still missing)Signing out of Adobe on my PCRestarting my PCClearing my InDesign preferences and cache I've confirmed that the font appears and works in:Adobe IllustratorAdobe PhotoshopMicrosoft Word Any help would be appreciated. I've never encountered this error before in all my years of using InDesign. System:Windows 10 ProVers

  Hello, after InDesign's latest update, I can't use shortcuts like alignment and object docking without selecting and grouping objects. What is causing this and how can I fix it? It's very difficult to work without shortcuts. I checked the preferences section and everything seems normal.

I have a paragraph style with an OTF Stylistic Set enabled.When creating a character style, there is no option to disable this Stylistic Set — or to specify that no Stylistic Set should be used at all.The font I’m using already uses all 20 Stylistic Sets, so selecting a different, unused set is not an option.Can anyone help, please?

Last month, I finalized an InDesign file that features a lot of precisely-sized text fields and tables. It was all perfect, good-to-go for this month’s deadline. I went into the file a few days ago to make a minor edit, and suddenly the Open Sans font was behaving very strangely - InDesign made it look like the Bold instance was missing altogether, and any time I added or deleted text anywhere in a field or table that used Open Sans, the field or table reacted as if I were inserting a font of a larger size, and the carefully designed field and table bounds were exceeded, creating hundreds of overflow errors across the document.I have tried: Re-installing Open Sans on my computer (and restarting), both trying the variable variety and the static variety of the four instances (regular, bold, italic, bold italic) the document uses. I restarted between each attempt. Following the advice of our office's most experienced InDesign user, I installed the Open Sans family through Adobe Creative

I have downloaded Creative Cloud. Want to make a new Indeign file. Made 1 single page and want to save it...pop up : this file is dammaged..it’s a new file and nothing in it yet

I want to set some default regular expressions in a paragraph style, for example:Regular expression: (\d+)Quote style: myDataParagraph style: myStyle=app.documents[0]..itemByName(“AA”),myStyle.properties{}Thanks.

In the recent InDesign versions Adobe has introduced HarfBuzz as the default text shaping engine but the Justification alternates feature is now not working in OpenType fonts at all, we have confirmed it by testing Arabic fonts. For Adobe text rendering engine this feature still works seamlessly but for Harfbuzz this fails silently. Is there some compatibility issue of Harfbuzz with Adobe paragraph model or we are missing something as we have tested several fonts with same result?It has disturbed all our past documents as the users use this feature in the whole documents to beautifully justify the paragraphs using justification alternates.

Hello,I need help debugging a crash involving dialogues. I’ve built a plugin for CC 2026 using the C++ plugin SDK, which works fine. As a next step, I wanted to implement a dialogue box. Integrating the BasicDialog example worked well, but that wasn’t enough for me as I need tabs. So I tried to incorporate the BasicSelectableDialog example. Unfortunately, InDesign crashes on launch. The last call I can see in the crash log isCDialogObserver::AutoAttach() I’ve also tried copying all the pre-processor macros from the example project file, but that didn’t work either. Could someone please help me debug this?I’ve attached the crash report. Best regards 

I’m preparing a museum grade gallery exhibition of several 16” x 22” framed images. The images have a 1-1/2” margin all around. My workflow is negative scans to Photoshop to InDesign then export to Acrobat PDF. I’ll be conferring with my printer who uses large commercial Canon printers (Pro 4000 and 6000) about the final settings, so I’m preparing for that interaction. I published a picture book last year with the settings used here and it came out perfect. But fine art photography is a different animal apparently.Paper: photo rag baryta paper 308 GSMGlazing: Tru Vue Museum Glass (non-reflective, UV protection)My photoshop files are saved as Embed Color Profile: Adobe RGB (1998).InDesign export format: Adobe PDF (Print).Current Preset, Compression, and Output settings: see images attached.Let me know if any further info is needed..

There are allOjcetStyles, but there is no 'allObject StyleGroups'.Is there any way to correct the following code so that it can recognize all situations of groups, including nested groups within groups.var creGroup = newGroup("myGroup", "objectStyleGroups");function newGroup(grn, sgc) { var d = app.activeDocument; for (var i = 0; i < d[sgc].length; i++) { if (d[sgc][i].name == grn) { return true break } } return d[sgc].add({ name: grn });} 

Hi there.I'm completely new to indesign.How do I make a folded greeting card?

Hi, I have a multilingual document created in InDesign that I need to export as an accessible PDF. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to successfully export language tags from InDesign? The content in Spanish is assigned unique paragraph styles, and I have defined those styles as Spanish under "Language" in character formats. However when I export the PDF from InDesign, Acrobat reads all of those as "English".  Am I missing anything or do I have to manually update the language categorization in Acrobat? Trying to avoid that since it's a lengthy document but guessing that's my only option. If so, I guess it's not necessary to create separate paragraph styles for content in Spanish?  Any other tips for exporting accessible multilingual PDF from ID would be great.  Tagging our accessibility champion @Bevi Chagnon - PubCom.com in case you might have an answer 🙂 Thanks so much

Desde la última actualización no puedo colocar imágenes en inDesign, cuando lo hago, la imagen se ve, pero el programa se cuelga y ni siquiera puedo cerrarlo Since the last update, I can't place images in InDesign. When I do, the image appears, but the program crashes and I can't even close it.

Hi everyone! I'm new to InDesign and MathML, and I’ve been trying to change the font family for equations but couldn’t figure out how to do it. Is there a way to customize the font?If not, does anyone know what the default font for MathML equations in InDesign is?Thanks in advance for any tips!

I have a new laptop, but whenever i try to import user settings im having the error “Incompatible locale detected. Please choose a valid file to proceed”. both versions are updated to the latest : 21.4.1 x64 

I have just updated InDesign through CC to v13.0, before the update... if for example, I went:File --> Adobe PDF presets --> Smallest file sizeThe location for exporting the file was the same location as the InDesign file.However, since the update, it exports to the last location I used.So, if I export document A which is stored in folder X to folder X, then go to export document B, stored in Folder Z, it opens folder X as the destination for the export, and I then have to browse through the files to select the correct destination folder.Hopefully the above makes sense.I work with so many files and at a rapid pace, so this is a really big inconvenience.Any help would be appreciated.Thank you

I want to check if the 'myPar' paragraph style exists.When it is in the group, return trueBut when it is within a certain group, it is not recognized.Where is the problem?var ifStyEx = styleExist("myPar", "allParagraphStyles")//Check if the style existsfunction styleExist(stn, astc) { var d = app.activeDocument; for (var i = 0; i < d[astc].length; i++) { if (d[astc][i].name == stn) { //style = d[astc][i]; //break; return true; } else { return alert("No exist"); } }} 

Our team works on EdTech book design, and we are currently implementing accessibility for InDesign and PDF files.Most of our books contain a large number of MathType EPS equations and Illustrator AI graphs. Manually adding alt text and accessibility information to thousands of these objects is not scalable.We would like to implement accessibility primarily at the InDesign source level so it can be reused for future editions and outputs.Has anyone worked on similar math-heavy/STEM publishing projects? What tools, workflows, or automation solutions do you recommend for handling equations, graphs, alt text, MathML, and accessible PDF generation from InDesign?

I’ve encountered an issue where text underlines that were vectorized (pages having been exported to EPS) do not print correctly after being linked in another InDesign file and exported to PDF. Here’s the process below:Doc A pages exported as individual EPS files → EPS files linked into objects in Doc B → Doc B exported as a single PDF to be printed.The underlines appear in chunks of thicks and thins in both the PDF export and in print, but do not look this way in InDesign. This is not a local display issue that can be resolved by changes to preferences in Acrobat such as Smooth line art and Enhance thin lines, since it affects the printed document. The PDF export uses Standard: None and Compatibility: Acrobat 4 (PDF1.3). I’ve discovered that removing the Directional Feather effect on the containing object eliminates the “chunky” underline problem. However, that effect is sort of inherited from a previous volume and ideally would be kept.  Any insights as to why this effect is interacti
