InDesign 2020 crashing while working with Text

Every time I try to COPY, CUT or PASTE text, InDesign crashes on my MacOS Catalina. I am using the most up to date version (15.0.1) but it was also happening with the previous version as well. 

 

UPDATE: I realize this occurence only takes place with the INDD specific file I am working on. I tried packaging the file and reopening it as IDML and the problem went away.  However, the fonts and styles were all gone even though they were included in the package. 

 

Because the original INDD file has private information, I went ahead and replicated the it, replaced all text with placeholder text, packaged the file here for anyone who wants to help investigate. The included INDD is identical with the original (except in text) and has the exact same crash issues mentioned above. They also include all original fonts (Montserrat-Light, Montserrat-Regular, Fira Sans-Light, Fira Sans-Regular). 

 

I've emailed the file to Adobe to see if they can troubleshoot. If you have any suggestions in the meantime, please let me know and I'll test out your suggestions. Appreciate any help!

Hi xtinna2,

opened your sample document.

 

Tried to export a selection of text frames on the master page to an IDMS snippet file.

InDesign 2020 crashed immediately. The IDMS file was not written.

 

I'd say work on with the IDML file. Format your text anew. Also define new paragraph styles.

The current InDesign 2020 document is damaged beyond repair

Hi Srishti,

 

Thanks for helping!

  • We are working with MacOs Mojave
  • We started noticing it since januari 2020
  • It always crashes when you try to cut or copy tekst. With objects it works fine.
  • it are some documents https://shared-assets.adobe.com/link/eeeffd86-f300-4475-7ab5-0e63c521cc48 this is one example
  •  The files are stored on google drive with google file stream
  • There where no changes made recently

 

Thanks in advance!
