Does ID CS3 work with High Sierra?

I need help. I'm just getting blank boxes w/ID, and it's not working properl. I recently tried deleting the prefs, as well as upgrading to 5.0.4. Closing and restarting the app, restarting the computer, etc. No dice. Other CS3 software like PS, Illustrator, Bridge, DW, etc. seem to be working fine. Any suggestions? I'm working with a mid 2012 MacBook Pro running High Sierra. Any fixes?

    Hi,

    You are running ID CS3 on a non supported OS. If it will run fine or not depends on a number of factors and how lucky you are.  I would suggest you either downgrade or OS or switch to the CC versions of InDesign. The latest ID version CC 2018 is fully supported under MAC Sierra.

    You are trying to do something that is FAR beyond the program's parameters

    TY for your response, but oddly enough, all of my other CS3 software seems to be working just fine. PS is solid, Illustrator, Bridge, DW, etc. Why is only ID messed up with blank boxes?
