Hi @FarzanaA , hm, when you look into the DOM documentation for ExtendScript, you'll see that method placeAsset() will only work with Document or Text as argument. Rectangle is not a valid argument. https://www.indesignjs.de/extendscriptAPI/indesign-latest/#Asset.html#d1e300195__d1e300491   InDesign desktop version: When argument is Document, the asset will be placed on the active spread. When argument is Text, for example an insertionPoint, InDesign tries to anchor the asset. But this will fail with an asset that consists of more than one page items that are not grouped.   So in the end you could add a new document and place the asset there. When done move all page items to the desired document and into position.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert )   ... View more

@joshualangman asked: "… Can you confirm that this is a bug?"   Hi Josh, absolutely. Peter Kahrel already filled in the details. Working with a table instead of split paragraphs would be the alternative. So go ahead with that workaround.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ... View more

Hi @Thomas_Calvin , you said: " … This needs to survive repagination, and yet not take up space when a heading naturally (or deliberately) falls at the top of the page."   Well, the only automatism that I know of that could achieve this lies in InDesign's table header options. Skip header in the first frame of a table and show header in the next frame of the same table. That means that every individual topic must be contents of an InDesign table object.   However, this table solution comes with a lot of pain points. Every paragraph of a single topic must be part of a body table cell. When a paragraph text exceeds the length of a table cell, two or more lines of text, it cannot be split to the next text frame automatically.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ...

Hi @dublove , your code will not work. Because it will add a new row before the header row. And that automatically becomes an additional header row. An additional body row must be added after the last header row. Why? A table cannot start with a body row followed by a header row.   So what, I have to ask, will you like to do? Converting all header rows to body rows because you want to add a body row at the start of your table? Or do you want a new body row before the first body row and leave all header rows as they are?   Please explain.   Thanks, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ... View more

Hi @carloss67 , thank you for testing Acrobat Pro to outline that text. Well, obviously the bad outcome is due to the font designer's choice how to construct or how to define the path of a given glyph.

@hendy_5450 asked: " …  For example the first page has to be the last, and vice versa how can I do that??"   Hi @hendy_5450 , if your aim with InDesign is to export the pages to PDF in opposite order for e.g. a document with 12 pages, you can change the range in the PDF export dialog with: 12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 instead of using the all pages default.   You could also use absolute page numbering in the PDF export dialog if your document starts with a different page name and/or has various sections with different page start numberings. For absolute page numbering the scheme is to use page positions with a + in front of the number like that exports a PDF in reverse order:   +12,+11,+10,+9,+8,+7,+6,+5,+4,+3,+2,+1   12th page in the document is first, first page in the document is last.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert )     ...

Hi @OsakaWebbie , thank you for testing my sample. Let's discuss what that can mean: Perhaps "something" is preventing your InDesign to redraw the text? I had missing fonts and did not correct that. So perhaps this issue is font related?   One could try to enforce a recomposition of the text frame.   How to do that: Select the text frame and use a menu command that is not visible in the UI, but has a keyboard shortcut. In the international macOS version that should be ctrl + alt + / . In my German version, see screenshot below, I think it is Shift + F5.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ...

Hi @OsakaWebbie , thank you for the attached InDesign sample document. I found a workaround for that strange situation.   Let's be clear that the situation with text wrap is this, image selected so that the path of the wrap ( 8 mm ) is visible:   When I added a path point to the text wrap's path with the Pen tool the text will move to the bottom:   I have no idea why this is necessary, but it does work. The trajectory of the path did not change.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert )   ... View more

Hi @OsakaWebbie , if text wrap is the issue, I would check the image ( first candidate, but perhaps not the only one ) for text wrap. Perhaps you could change the path of the wrap a bit so that your small text frame will not be affected so much.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ... View more

Hi Simon, strange.   With menu File > Open will you see the same behavior, read only InDesign document, when you use the option to open the document as Original or as Copy instead of Normal?   Also test a previous version of InDesign 2025 like 20.2.0 or 20.1.0.   Hm.

Hi @aparna_6212 , look up DOM documentation for ExtendScript.

Hallo @josefh35143105 , I'd not say that there is no issue with the HTML rendering but the size. Well, the size on screen could be an issue, but the more is text composition.

Hi @Diplographia Publishing , contact Pantone with your issue. My guess is that something changed with InDesign 2025 v20.3.1 regarding plug-in compatibility. So an update with a new compiled version is needed.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ... View more

Hi @tbledsoe , I would export the page the following way:     Standard: None Compatibility: Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3) Output > Color > Color Conversion: Convert to Destination Destination: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 Profile Inclusion Policy: Include Destination Profile [ x ] Simulate Overprint   Important: If you are using any spot colors in your document, do NOT convert any spot colors to CMYK with the Ink Manager. Leave them visible as spot colors in the Ink Manager. Note: The settings above do not match settings that are neccessary for CMYK printing. Do that only for PDFs that should be viewed in browsers and other PDF viewer apps that are not Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader for macOS and Windows.   Speculation: A white rectangle is set to "overprint" inside your PDF.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ...

Megan said: "… I cannot use text box anchoring. It is not at all practle for my needs. The icons needs to be inline with the product title, and move accordinally if the text changes."   Hi Megan, it's also possible that anchored objects, not inline anchored ones, will move with the text. All depends on their anchoring settings. See this example from my German InDesign where the x-position is set relative to the anchor in the text, not to the text frame's left edge (default):     Sample document is attached to my reply.   Regards, Uwe Laubender ( Adobe Community Expert ) ...

Hi @OsakaWebbie , will the text align to the bottom of the text frame if you move the text frame to the pasteboard? If not check the inset values of the text frame. Set them to 0 for the bottom.

@jethika27020132be9l said: "… Because in our case, if we explicitly call recompose() on each .indd file in the book before exporting, the missing images show up as expected in the final PDF. This suggests the UI might be triggering something internally that we need to replicate via script. Would love any insights on whether that's expected behavior or something specific to book automation."   Hm. The question is if your workflow with your custom plugin that handles image rendering requires a recompose() before the export to PDF.
