I do it to search many docs at a time (some of them a hundred pages), and to let customers know I am paying attention.  Customer: We don't lowercase that word. Ever. Me: In the last six months, in 214 documents and about 8000 pages, it was lowercase 329 times and uppercase 485.  Customer: How did you figure that out? Me: That's why I make the big bucks. ...

InDesign is set to English. But you are missing a key point: This is not a language-based hyphenation rule that applies to breaking a word., nor is it a function of the hyphenation zone or the other hyphenation settings. This is InDesign treating your plain typed hyphen as though it were a nonbreaking hyphen (Option+Command+hyphen) and therefore, not breaking after a typed hyphen in a two-word compound. Oh, it will happily break one of the words -- just not at the hyphen you actually want! ... View more

I'm getting that as well, and this is crazy. There is no reason that InDesign does not break well-defined at the hyphen. And to add insult to injury, it looks atrocious when there is plenty of room for "well-".  There might be some argument for breaking a word at a syllable and relating it to the hyphenation zone and such, but when you type a hyphen by hand? Really? In a compound word???  ... View more

That worked, thanks. ... View more

Amal: Hmm, no. Not only am I not going to bother, but I'm a bit perturbed you asked . . . which is treating this as though it were something new. It has been around for years and years, and I would bet my left lung that Adobe's own employees have seen it. Adobe needs to rip through Acrobat in general to eliminate the need for Rosetta anyway, and maybe all that re-engineering will fix it.  ... View more

It's definitely NOT the first item. The problem has been around for years, and you can bet that Adobe employees have seen it on their own computers. ... View more

FrameMaker would let you do it. Just sayin'. ... View more

Well, yes, read the help, but in my case, InDesign's anchor-in-first-line behavior is antithetical to my previously gained knowledge. I am 66 and grew up with PageMaker, QuarkXPress, Word, FrameMaker, WordPerfect, etc., and watched the technique of runaround and anchors develop, so when I first experienced the InDesign behavior, I was completely surprised. I firmly believe other users who are knowledgeable in anchors and runaround would also be surprised. [I see a touch of gray in your brows, so I would think you would agree?]   Regarding "text flow has to follow an anchor point. It's just a basic rule of the layout process," you may have used apps that allow an anchor to be almost anywhere, from adjacent to the anchored object [read: the very same sentence]" to sitting on a different page . . . so "text flow has to follow an anchor point" is anything but a basic rule. I would caution against saying anything is a "rule" in DTP. ... View more

Regardless of the fact that the "fix" does not work, I have to smirk at the mention (in the details link), ". . . eliminates extra space needs." Yes, thanks, Adobe, that you realized how those 18 pixels soaked up SO much valuable on-screen real estate. ... View more

The reply of "the issue is not reproducible..." is meaningless and the need to know the OS and Acrobat version is useless. The fact that the problem is found scattered throughout the internet for many years makes it clear that the problem is inherent to Acrobat. You typed your thing in 2015, I am typing this in 2024, and it happens to me on my Mac once in a while, so yeah, something is wrong with Acrobat's code.  Maybe when Adobe realizes Acrobat needs to be rewritten to account for Rosetta, it will be fixed.  ...

If everything you are using -- OS, apps -- is out dated, then no, you would not have not been alerted. The warning came out in 2021. It is not the fault of the makers of the OS or the apps that you did not stay up to date. ... View more

Legacy EPS files continue to be supported in various vector graphics applications regardless of what Microsoft or Apple do with their operating systems. By @Bobby Henderson Well, yes, but it is not an operating system issue. This is at the application level. When you want clarity at the wide level, you should go with a vector (depending on the graphic, of course). ... View more

Regarding EPS, Microsoft stopped importing EPS some time ago. Their suggestion is to convert to SVG or EMF; see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/support-for-eps-images-has-been-turned-off-in-office-a069d664-4bcf-415e-a1b5-cbb0c334a840# ... View more

I came here looking for tips on finding how to get the scroll bares out of hiding, and I see I have the same complaints as others: The scroll bars are too skinny Have their show/hide preference much easier to see; the Preferences window needs a search field They disappear far too quickly ...

I want to say I found one, but I have not. I don't use the free Reader because I use Acrobat's indexing feature many times a day, and I have not found another application that will do that. PDFify is okay for opening a PDF and doing OCR -- a bit better than Acrobat, actually -- and it can delete pages and save, but it doesn't even have an internal search feature. ... View more

Similar to yours and Alain's comments, it has seemed for years that Adobe is more concerned with making headlines with cool new, fancy bells-and-whistles than it is with making sure its baseline products work properly and supporting the user base that got them the size they are today.  ...

You should certainly realize by now that OS and Acrobat versions are beside the point, as this issue has been going on for years. It deserves Adobe's attention and a fix, especially given what users pay for a license. We're not talking about an app that was programmed by a 30-year-old living in his mom's basement. ...
