What's new in InDesign CS5.5 (7.5.1)?

Per the Adobe InDesign CS5.5 7.5.1 Release Notes, the following issues are resolved in today's CS5.5 update:
For a Swedish installation on Mac OS you are unable to insert a line break with Return key on the keyboard. [2884727]
Background PDF export fails for certain files if preflight is enabled. [2824068]
You are unable to change the location of the XSLT file during relinking of XML [2823961]
Excel-specific import prefs are not retained when placing Excel file into a graphic frame [2808639]
Problem accessing shared linked file from multiple InDesign instances running on different machines [2851854]
CS5 plug-ins can be loaded in CS5.5, leading to code conflicts and instability  [2867833]
Any thoughts? Of course we're aware that the plugins one has tripped up some folks.

I wonder if Adobe has looked at how popular the use of plugins is.
It would be interesting to know.
Beyond surveys and market information, at least on the Mac, they have
crash report data (which is skewed!). Each crash report includes
information about version of each loaded plugin. So while they
may not be able to measure the absolute number of users with plugins
installed, they can measure the fraction of users-who-submit-crash-reports
who have plugins installed, as well as the that fraction for any particular
plugin.
Of course, one can only assume those numbers would be representative
of non-crashing installations, too. At least theoreticaly, most crashes
should be clear about whether a plugin was directly or indirectly
responsible for the crash...
I guess such things have the danger of running afoul of the privacy
policy...

  • What is it about InDesign CS5 that someone would get this error message?

    Hi,
    What is is about the .swf file that is generated from the InDesign CS5 interactive workspace that someone would get the following error message when they go to view the site I created?
    "This file may contain newer information that this viewer can support. It may not open or display correctly. Adobe suggests that you upgrade to the latest versions of our Acrobat products blah blah blah."
    The site doesn't seem to work for four Mac users, but works fine for at least one PC user.
    I'm trying to figure out how to save the .swf file down to Flash Player 9, which I've done by exporting a .fla file, then adjusting the Publish setting in Flash CS5. But that throws a wrench into the works...all the animations go haywire by continuously looping and the scale of all the text elements on the first page is much larger than it should be.
    Thanks, Steve

    Many of my songs in my iTunes Library no longer play.  I get this error message: "The song xxx could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?
    this usually happens when a user moves or deletes files in the finder - a sure way to upset iTunes.
    did you move or delete files in the finder ?
    I cannot locate the song.
    if you let iTunes manage your library, all your content will be in <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)/music. did you look there ? tried a spotlight search ?
    if the files are really gone, and have been purchased from the iTunes store, see Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

  • What's new in the CS5.5 SDK?

    OK, well, not a whole lot. But since I went through and diffed it against CS5, I though I'd share. This is from the Mac perspective.
    Some documentation reorganization -- getting-started.pdf moved into docs/guides and whats-new.pdf disappeared and we saw:
    ./docs/guides:

    We lost some build frameworks and gained an overview of the idmltools:

    -adobe_epic.framework
    -adobe_eula.framework
    ./devtools/sdktools/idmltools:

    It would appear there was a progress bar helper file tossed in with the InCopy applescript scripts for fun:
    ./scripting/incopy/scriptingguide/scripts/AppleScript/userinterfaces:

    We lost the components that are were rewritten from JavaScript to C++:
    ./source/public/components:
    -epubexport
    -xhtmlexport
    And we gained a whole bunch of header files for bosses associated with CS5.5 features, and similar:

    That's about it. A bunch of internal resources in the build frameworks changed, some filenames changed to CS5.5 versions and versionless things, a few PNGs were added:

  • New to InDesign CS5

    Can you assist me how do you import
    Fonts into Indesign

    You don't import fonts into InDesign. InDesign will recognize all the fonts installed on your computer (Mac or Windows). To add new fonts, you would install them on your computer.
    To select a font which you've installed, you would select it from the Font menu found on the Control panel at the top of the page. You'll see the option to select a font when you have the Type tool selected in a text frame.
    It sounds like you need a good introduction to the basics. I recommend Sandee Cohen's excellent InDesign CS5 QuickStart, available from Peachpit Press and Amazon.com. It's less than $20 and would save you a lot of time learning. You can also look at videos on www.lynda.com.

  • InDesign CS5 exports PDFs where EPS elements have low resolution

    I am rather new to InDesign CS5. I am currently working on a magazine, where I use graphics in TIFF and EPS. The exported PDF shows graphics in correct quality (300 dpi - TIFF) and graphics with poor resolution -> EPS. How is that even possible? The problem disappears when I use .AI, but it should work with EPS to, shouldn't it?
    I figured that it might have something to do with the Transparency Flattener Presets, am I right? My presets are set to "low resolution" and it is not possible to set them to "hight resolution", as InDesign refuses to remember those settings.
    Please help!

    Well, I was just trying to figure out why it's happening and thought that it might have something to do with the transparency flattening.
    My colleagues, who also work with InDesign (althought with older versions), always use EPS and they never have problems. But your advice is not to use EPS format, am I right?

  • Install my inDesign cs5.5 on new PC

    After the 2nd failed attempt to move my inDesign cs5.5 to my new computer, I am completely lost. I downloaded the first of 2 files (5.1Gb) and when I attempt to download the 2nd, I get this error message: The file archive part of Adobe cs5.5 Master Collection is missing. You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract.  What should I do now?

    You aren't just lost. You are so lost you posted the question in the Adobe Captivate forum!
    Not to worry. I've moved your thread over to the InDesign forums.
    Good luck! Rick

  • Unable to Save new documents in InDesign CS5

    I just upgraded from CS3 toCS5. I'm able to open old InDesign files and save but am not able to save a new document in CS5. I'm also not able to Undo. Any suggestions? Hoping this is an easy fix.

    Hi,
    Try re-creating the preferences.
    For windows Xp:
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\ to the desktop.
    Drag  the "Caches" folder from C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Local  Settings\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version 6.0 to the desktop.
    For Windows Vista:
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\ to the desktop.
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\InDesign\.
    For MAC:
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from Users/[user name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/ to the desktop.
    Drag the "Version 6.0" folder from Users/[user name]/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign/ to the desktop.
    If this dosen't work tried creating new user account with Admin rights.

  • InDesign CC 2014 freezes on "What's New" window

    Dear All,
    InDesign CC 2014 is freezing up everything when it hangs on the "What's New" window which is completely a blank white.  I can't close the application or force quit or do anything else…I have to shut down the computer in order to quit the application or do anything else on the computer -- it is completely frozen.  When the computer restarts, InDesign CC 2014 automatically tries to start up again and freezes the computer unless I get to it before it launches and force quit before it gets a chance to freeze again. 
    InDesign CC is working normally, but I notice that when CC 2014 launches, it also launches InDesign CC with it and both seem to run at the same time.  This does not happen when I start from InDesign CC -- only that application is then active.
    "I'm also getting an Adobe warning that has begun to appear stating:  "Administrator rights are required to complete Adobe add-ons installation or removal" and I'm not sure which application this is referring to or how to log in for these "rights", 
    Anyone else having these issues?  I'm working on a Mac pro.
    Small Town Gal

    Sorry for not being clear. I did the fix in CC2014 and worked great.

    Dear Alberto,
    I'm not sure what vernon you're now running?  Did the above fix work on the new InDesign 2014? or are you saying that InDesign CC is now working?  The suggested "fix" says to open the InDesign CC folder, so I'm wondering if deleting the "What's New" folder from InDesign CC actually also removes it from InDesign 2014?  and is a temporary fix for InDesign 2014, allowing it to finally launch?  Thanks.

  • InDesign CS5 crashes on opening new or existing file

    I am getting error message 'embedded profile mismatch' on opening existing files (CS5 and CS3) created by myself and other people.  The error message appears and InDesign crashes - I have to do a forced quit. On opening a new file InDesign crashes before the file is opened. I haven't yet managed to open any file in CS5. It is an update from CS3.

    The profile mismatch warning probably has nothing to do with the crash problem. That simply means that your color settings are different in the new installation.
    The continuing crash may be caused by a corrupt recovery file. If there is a file in the recovery folder, remove it and ID should start.
    Try exporting the CS3 files to .inx from CS3 and see if those will open succesfully in CS5.
