InDesign 2023 crashes when I copy text

The program closes while the text is being copied. When trying to recover a file, the program also crashes. The file is a template downloaded from stock, everything can be edited etc. but it crashes just only when I copying text.

I have the exact same problem with a template I downloaded from Adobe Stock. If I hit Cmd C, everything crashes and the recovery file will crash as well. Did you ever find a fix for it?

Cheers!!

Hi @Konstantin32247430d7hk,

 

Sorry to hear about the trouble. Please share a few more details like:

 

-The version of InDesign & OS.

-Is this happening on a specific file or multiple files?

-Where are the files saved? Locally or on any network or shared drive? 

Thanks
Rishabh

Open it again, export as IDML, open exported IDML, save with a new name - should fix the problem.

What template is it?

Sounds like something is wrong with it. 

Can you point us to where you downloaded it from?
