Hi all

Updated to latest InDesign 2025, but this new function doesn't seem to be working on the French version (iMac + Mac OS Monterey). I get two error messages (see screen captures) with no further indication of what to do - Just to "Close" the window. Doesn't seem to be a language version problem, more a technical one.

After clicking Export to Adobe Express, it goes through the file preparation process but falls over near the end and no files are added to the cloud space. The first error message reads "InDesign couldn't execute this workflow. Try again later". The second is regarding the conversion of incorporated V4 colour profiles en V2 profiles during the creation of a PDF.

Any ideas. This is a really useful addition to InDesign, it would be a shame if it doesn't work.

Regards

Rob

Hello @GraphifyPro,

Thank you for your patience. We tested the issue you reported using the file you provided and found that the "Export to Adobe Express" feature worked correctly on our end. Here are some insights based on our investigation:

1. We noticed from the screenshot you shared that the language setting in the PDF export options was set to Arabic. Even though you mentioned using the English version, it's possible that a previous configuration might have caused this setting to default to Arabic.

2. To ensure smooth functionality, I recommend checking your InDesign installation directory:
Confirm if your InDesign workspace is set to AE (Arabic) or US (English).
If it is currently set to AE and you prefer using the English version, try uninstalling InDesign, clearing the cache and preferences, and then reinstalling with English settings. Reference: Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner tool to solve installation problems (https://adobe.ly/48gflUS)

3. If the error continues to occur even after verifying that your installation is in English, please let us know.

I appreciate your cooperation, and please feel free to reach out if you need additional assistance!

Best,
Abhishek Rao

Unfortunately I need to use Indesign support Arabic not English only

@GraphifyPro said: "I tried with the English version can't work, I do not know why"

I have no idea why, but could we perhaps interpret the error message "We do not currently support converting content in this language" in the way, that the language formatting or the applied font of text on the page, perhaps (my guess) Chinese, Devanagari, using a "complex script", is something that cannot be handled?

What kind of text is on your page?
