Missing Pantone 2171 C in InDesign CS6

Hi, I'm using InDesign CS6 and I can't find Pantone 2171 C in my colour books, do you know why?

Pantone color books change almost every year and some colors are replaced by others. Ask in the ID forum about specific details.

Missing the Folio Overlay in InDesign CS6 (Mac)

I just got the Folio builder only, and I can't make an updates under the window column, could anyone help this?

Moved to DPS forum.
You have to run the updates after installing InDesign. Help>updates.
If they're not appearing you'll need to manually download the CS6 Desktop Tools from downloads.adobe.com.

Can not find pantone+ swatches in InDesign CS6, such as 2239c?

How do I find the pantone+ swatches in InDesign CS6, such as 2239c? It is not visible in the swatches panel? Can anyone else see this swatch in Indesign Cs6 or Illustrator Cs6?

From the Swatches panel Flyout menu, choose New swatch.
In the new swatch definition dialog, under Type choose Spot, and under Mode choose Pantone + Solid Coated.
There are some legacy colors that are not included inthe Pantone + series. You can add these to both ID and Illustrator by following the directions in Pantone Plus color libraries (Thanks, Vikrant ).
2239 isn't in my old swatchbooks as a spot color or the legacy books for the program, either. Are you sure that's a vaild number? Perhaps youpi really mean 223-9, a light blue-gray process color? If that's the case, you'd need to specify Process instead of Spot, and choose the appropriate book fromthe mode dropdown. The 223 series seems not be included in the + books, but it is inthe legacy books if you add them according to the instuctions in the link above.

Missing links in Indesign CS6!

Good morning!
Yesterday, my workmate and I did a .indb file in Indesign CS6. That .indb (book) is made of several .indd files (documents).
So far so good. Then, after it was ready, we linked all images (using the Links panel) to each .indd and then we saved it.
Today, I've tried to move those documents to my computer.
However, the Links panel now shows many missing links in the images, according to the image below:
I can't understand how Indesign CS6 missed links in this case, because we have already linked all images to each document.
Please, I would like to learn more about this process of linking images to documents in Indesign.

inDesign links documents via a file path.
It doesn't actually add the image itself to the document, but rather relays a link to the where file resides on the hard drive.
It then draws a representation of that image in the layout using a proxy thumbnail.
So when it's linked it is actually looking at a file path, say something like
If I move that file to a computer where the my documents folder has a different name say "C:\MyDocuments\Eugene\Images\Eugene1.png"
"C:\MyDocuments\Marcelo\"
Then when I open the file on Marcelo's computer the link would still be
"C:\MyDocuments\Eugene\Images\Eugene1.png"
I need to redirect the link to go to
"C:\MyDocuments\Marcelo\Images\Eugene1.png"
As stated above you should use
File>Package
Zip the folders the computer generates - and then send them to a new computer.
Unzip and work on the file.

"Missing Plug ins" in InDesign CS6

Hi,
lately, I've got installed CS6 Standard on a Windows XP machine, German version. There were CS2 and CS4 formerly on this workstation. The admin deleted the CS2 before installing cs6.
Now, every part of CS6 is up and running - except for InDesign CS6.
Upon launching InDesign CS6, I keep getting error messages saying, among others:
"Adobe InDesign erkennt [plug-in name here] nicht als gültiges Zusatzmodul. Installieren Sie das Zusatzmodul [plug-in name here] neu, und starten Sie InDesign erneut. Diese Meldung wieder anzeigen? (JA) (NEIN)".
and/or:
"Zum Laden von [another plug-in name here] is JBX erforderlich. Installieren Sie das Zusatzmodul JBX und starten Sie InDesign erneut. Diese Meldung wieder anzeigen? (JA) (NEIN)".
The first message appears several times along with diverse plug-in names ( ssignment UI, InCopy Bridge UI, InCopyExport, InCopyImport…). The other one concerns only this "JBX", if I remember correctly.
After all the message are clicked away (it does not matter if I click on JA or NEIN), InDesign CS6 launches in a crippled form, with no palettes, with reduced menus, and it is crashing upon trying to choose the "Preferences".
The Prefs were already deleted with the appropriate keyboard shortcut.
What's the issue and how do I get InDesign CS6 to work?

First of all you should know which Plugin is missing. Then you have to buy it for CS6 and install it properly with the Extension Manager.
This is not the issue, I think. There was never a 3rd part extension installed along with former ID CS version. So I don't think we'd had to buy any.
I suppose the Adminstrator has copied the plugin from an older version to the newer version and the plugin seems not be compatible.
No, he didn't. AFAIK, he's just installed and registered the CS6 according to Adobe's instructions.
Another thing is obvious that a second plugin is missing which is used by the other plugin. This might be also a third party pi or a default is missing.
Yes, this is all fine, but again: there was never an extra plug in for ID CS 6 installed on the system. Every version was always installed simply "as it is", because we don't need external plug ins to work with.
Another thing: It is good to keep older versions installed on the computer for a while when a new version is installed. When all documents have been migrated you can delete (uninstall) the old version. Not before. So it was not a good idea from the administrator to delete the older version.
You have possibly misunderstood me. Your hint to keep the previous version is highly appreciated; this is, actually, the way we'we been processing with every major software update for years, as well as this time. Only the whole CS2 was deleted, since it was succesfully preventing (on three different Windows workstations) the CS6 installer to do it's job. CS4 is still installed and working.
The missing plug in issue doesn't exist au dem MacBook Pro, by the way, which was also upgraded from CS4 to CS6. Maybe because I am actually the "admin" of it

InDesign CS6 + Yosemite + Copy/Paste = Missing font

We use ITC Franklin Gothic throughout all of our pieces; it's installed and it's the default font setup. New and existing files have opened without issue until now. I opened an advertisement that needed to be resized, from our shared server and copied the contents. In a new document, I pasted the contents suddenly the font says it's missing. The images retained their links to the packaged folder on the server, the fonts just stopped working. I closed InDesign, then disconnected from the server in case there was some kind of conflict between the local font and the server font override from the packaged fonts folder (packaged from the local font installed, I made the source ad this same way). Loaded the new file, and got the expected missing links dialogue, but unexpectedly the fonts were still missing. I reviewed the missing fonts, and it was the entire family. I opened Suitcase, verified the fonts are active. Still no fonts in InDesign. Okay, disactivated font in Suitcase (maybe it needs an update), installed the font in Fontbook, need to get the ad done and I don't have time for this. Verified font works by opening a different file, making a new document, but as soon as I opened the ad with the missing the fonts, fonts go missing. I then changed the fonts to a different family, and tried changing them back, but the font doesn't even show in the list of fonts. I can't figure out why this particular method of copy and paste breaks the font. I've opened and created other files with this font family active, while this copy/paste file is open at the same time in another tab while it still says "no". The only work around I could use was to copy the entire packaged folder from the server to my desktop and just change the document properties to the size I need, then adjust the artwork to fit.
I'd like to find a resolution as to why copying and pasting broke this font even though the same missing font works fine simultaneously in a different document. Any suggestions/questions/thoughts/solutions would be very welcome.
System specs:
27" iMac (Mid-2011) 3.1 GHz i5
32 GB RAM
1 GB Video
10.10.2
Adobe InDesign CS6 8.1
Update: Looking through the font list, Franklin is being listed as a different font. Though the character palette, the font selected is ITC Franklin Gothic Std Book; the font listed in the Type drop-down menu is Myriad Pro, and once that was deactivated, Helvetica.

i don't see how that could be the case because I originally installed the font, created and packaged the ad, and the font is available for typesetting in a new document while this problematic document is open without being connected to the server.
I upgraded to creative cloud 2014 and this particular document is still a problem. This font issue is limited to this sole document. I'm guessing it has something to do with the copy and pasting. Tomorrow, I'll try replacing the font to something else and then copy/pasting it in the same way if it recreates the same problem with a different font.

Using InDesign CS6 onWindows PC. Apple icon and traffic lights in L top corner are missing.

Using InDesign CS6 onWindows PC. Apple icon and traffic lights in L top corner are missing and so are some of the editing features. I fixed this once before by accident but can't remember how I did it. All I remember is it had something to do with the veiw % in other applications - I think!

I've been using a tutorial that is obviously been done on a Mac.
I used to have a link somewhere that was basically a list of all of the differences between the two platforms, but I can't lay hands on it. I'm sure if you asked us about the features that were missing or broken, we could answer fairly easily - you know, like "Preferences are under the InDesign menu on a Mac, but in Windows they're under Edit."
The worst of these differences is in keyboard shortcuts - Macs have an extra modifier key, so whenever I switch platforms I always spend twenty minutes flopping my hands around and muttering uncomplimentary things about Cupertino and Redmond, at least until muscle memory takes over.

Indesign CS6 crashed, can't be started again (missing required fonts, cmap files). Reinstalled -- doesnt work. help?

hi,
my indesign CS6 worked perfectly until yesterday afternoon, when it suddenly crashed and wont open again. all it says is "There are required system fonts or cmap files missing. reinstall indesign". Did that, with the cc cleaner, but that doesnt work!
working on windows 7, sp1 -- never had any problems.
all i can find in other forums is about the cs2, which is fairly outdated. why does this happen?! all my other programs from the master collection work fine!

ok, after a quite frustrating weekend the problem seems to have solved itself. what i did (for future requests):
- downloaded cs6 master collection (since i had my cds not with me)
- deinstalled old install
- wiped the system with the adobe cc cleaner tool to get everything off
- restart
- install cs6
- same error. no chance of doing anything.
i then installed a trial version on another computer to at least render my pdf. i then tried something new: i put the cmap & fonts (in C:/Programs/Common Files/Adobe/PDFL) from the working pc on a usb drive. when i "backed up" my PDFL Folder on my main pc into a zip (just in case), i gave indesign another try. it then started up -- since it was the first time a bit slower than usual, but it's back on track.

Indesign CS6 " The program can't start because Core Foundation_v11.dll is missing from your computer. Try re-installing the program to fix the problem"

Hi all
I'm running Indesign CS6 in Windows 7. Lately, when the program is opening, I'm getting the error pop-up: " The program can't start because Core Foundation_v11.dll is missing from your computer. Try re-installing the program to fix the problem" When I click OK the program continues to load as normal, with nothing abnormal going on that I can see. I'd like to get rid of the error message though. I've tried re-installing, and scanning for problems with several anti-virus and anti-malware programs, all to no avail (no sign of any virus or malware). Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to restore the missing file? Many thanks for any help.
Wayne

With a bit more searching I found the source of the problem. For anyone interested it's explained here
Missing file: CoreFoundation_v11x64.dll
I tried to install a trial of Extensis Suitcase last week but for some reason it failed to install. It was after that I started noticing the error message, but because Suitcase had failed to load I didn't connect the two events! After reading the above thread implicating Suitcase, I looked in the InDesign plugins folder and, lo and behold, a folder called Font Activation that contained Extensis files! I moved them out and the error message is gone!
Thanks again to P Spier and thanks to Adobe for these forums.

InDesign CS6 - missing menus

I've uninstalled InDesign CS6 (cloud membership)... downloaded reinstalled through the cloud app, installed without errors, but i'm missing menu items/windows and its driving me crazy.... do i need to reinstall again?
missing stroke, but it can get to the weight by the contextual menu
missing the object text box menu item (forget what its actually caused)
little things like that
please help

Thanks Peter... i'm working again
     created a new user account everything was there...
     logged back in as my own account manually removed Adobe folders (and files) in Application Support, Saved Application State, & Prefs for the User...
     restarted and launched, everything is back
     I tried ditching each one at a time and that didn't work, had to trash everything at once, so somewhere it was picking up somethat that wasn't right.
p.s. Edit>Menus where all turned on, resetting the workspaces didn't make a difference either... weird
Thanks Again! I'm a happy camper now

InDesign CS6 for Windows: Type tool crashes program and am getting missing plug-in msgs.

Just installed InDesign CS6 for Windows. When I open the program, I receive three messages:
(1) Paragraph Panel.APLN needs Justification Panel plugin;
(2) Runin Styles Panell.APLN needs Find and Change Panel plug-in;
(3) Objectstylesui.APLN needs Graphics Panel plug-in.
To top it off, the type tool crashes the program.
I couldn't locate any current forum postings that appeared to help. I have uninstalled and re-installed the software. I have done an update from Adobe.
Advice? This is an educator's addition if that matters.
Thanks,
Julie

Thank for your help Peter. My software is working just fine now.
For others who might encounter these issues, here is how - with Peter Spier's help - I solved my problems. I uninstalled the previous CS6 version and re-booted. I disconnected from the Internet and then disabled my antivirus protection, antispyware and firewall. I had to do this in Norton as well as Windows (Windows Defender and Windows Firewall). Then I re-loaded the entire CS6 and re-booted. I opened InDesign. I no longer got the msgs about plug-ins missing. I then opened a new file and checked the Type tool. It worked fine. I opened an InDesign CS3 file, saved it as a new file in ID CS6. I was able to successfully edit text using the Type Tool.
Thank you to Peter for your help!

InDesign CS6 Middle East : default font substituted for missing font

Hello,
Message error from Indesign : Default font substituted for missing font
I am currently using version "InDesign CS6 Middle East," which normally supports the Arabic language ...
The problem is that the characters display correctly and others not! Especially this "font" called "MunaPlain", this version was created in 1996. (on the Internet, I could not find a new version!)
According to research, test... i have found that Mac OS X Lion that causes this error!
My question is:
Can I uninstall Mac OS X Lion and install an old OS version in my computer, for example MAC OS X Leopard ? Any solution please ?
Is there an update or plugin indesign for Arabic? (except ScribDoor, because in this case, it is useless)
Thank you!

For questions regarding Adobe apps, it is probably really best to ask Adobe or use their forums:
http://forums.adobe.com/index.jspa
I am amazed that an arabic font from 1996 would work correct anywhere today given the changes in technology that have occurred. Is it really not possible for you to use a modern Unicode Arabic font for your work? There are lots of them -- Apple gives you a half-dozen or so. And there is a list at
http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Arabic.html
Whether you can downgrade your os depends on your hardware. If it came new with 10.7 installed, then it is not possible.

Missing standard plugins at InDesign CS6 startup

We recently updated from CS5 to CS6 and since then everytime I try to use InDesign CS6 I get errors telling me it cannot load plugins for some of the standard panels, for example:
Gradient Panel.InDesignPlugin
OutputMiscUI.InDesignPlugin
Swatch Library Panel.InDesignPlugin
Transparency UI.InDesignPlugin
Text Color Panel.InDesignPlugin
Then it gives an error that says "Cannot open resource file"
The application will go ahead and open, but most of the standard panels are missing. This isn't an issue of trying to open a newer version with an older version, because I am just trying to open the application to create a new document.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail.
Help?

Uninstall again, run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall. If you're on a mak, hold down the Shift key when booting to start up in safe made before you reinstall, for Windows, see How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista
Return to normal startup after the install.

I am working on a PC. My InDesign CS6 was working but is now missing its amtlib.dll file. To fix it it says to reinstall program but I was am idiot and didn't make a copy. Is there any way to reinstall this missing file?

I am working on a PC. My InDesign CS6 was working but is now missing its amtlib.dll file. To fix it it says to reinstall program but I was am idiot and didn't make a copy. Is there any way to reinstall this missing file?

It was bought for my son and he never registered it.
I still don't understand why Neema was trying to reinstall it when she didn't have the serial number but after she uninstalled it, said she couldn't reinstall it because I didn't have the serial number. I never had it yet she didn't have a problem with trying to install it originally.
Still won't buy another Adobe product again. I've talked to a lot of people who can't stand Adobe and I now know why. I can't even update Flash without my whole system crashing or getting a virus.
I won't re-purchase InDesign either. I realize it should have been registered and I explained that my email had been hacked and my proof of purchase was deleted with ALL of my emails and I also had a major virus after updating Flash.
I can't afford to buy the same product twice.
I will find out what other formats my book distributor (Ingram Books) accepts and purchase that program.
Not impressed with Adobe and will share my experience with others so they can be sure to register their product and make a copy of the program BEFORE allowing an Adobe employee to take control of their computers.
If you knew the answer to my question, customer support should have too.
Thanks for your help.

Image Placed into InDesign CS6 appears reversed/missing

I am using InDesign CS6 on Windows 7, 64-bit.
I have worked in InDesign off and on for the past three years and have never experienced this problem before. I have always placed images into InDesign with no problem and now I have this *one* image that won't place correctly, after placing two images in the same fashion.
The original image (JPEG) was opened in Photoshop CS6. I removed the background. Changed to CMYK. Saved as .TIFF, preserved as transparency. Then placed in InDesign.
It either shows up "Reversed", like this (no transparency when saving as a TIFF in Photoshop first):
Or just kinda outlined, like this (saving as a TIFF with a transparency in Photoshop first):
I can't see the image. It prints this way, too.
I've tried other images, they are all fine. I always place TIFFs with no problem, so I'm really stumped here.
I've tried placing as a .PSD, .EPS and .TIFF and nothing works. The two other images to the left of the weird one were placed in the same way with no problems.
Any ideas?

OMG. THAT WORKED. I have lost two hours of my life trying to figure that out. I am forever thankful to you!!!
Here's the settings that WORKED:
