David BlatnerKeymasterWow! Nope. I assume it goes away if you restart InDesign?
David BlatnerKeymasterWow, that is a lot of layers! You might want to request this feature at indesign.uservoice.com
Also, you might want to look at using DTP Tool Cloud, which includes Layer Groups: https://www.dtptools.com/help.asp?id=14
David BlatnerKeymasterWhile you can’t upload images here, you can put them on image sharing sizes, such as imgur and then include the link here.
However, your description makes me think this could be a tricky problem to figure out. There’s no good reason why it should delete a frame like that.
David BlatnerKeymasterTry setting up the document as a “facing pages” document. When that feature is on, the other pages should stay attached.
If you have a Lynda.com subscription, you can see my video on this here: https://creativepro.com/indesign-secrets-video-laying-book-cover.php
David BlatnerKeymasterIn the original InDesign file, does it help if you choose Edit > Transparency Blend Mode > RGB (instead of CMYK)? My guess is that some of the transparency blend modes applied in the original AI file don’t work well in CMYK mode. That can happen… some of the coolest effects only work in RGB mode.
David BlatnerKeymasterIt sounds like a bug in the PDF reader on those machines. In my opinion, PDF should not be viewed inside a web browser. There are always too many problems! PDFs should be viewed in Acrobat.
David BlatnerKeymasterHere’s a different way to accomplish this… two grep styles, one for each “M”

David BlatnerKeymasterPierre: Yes, 72 ppi = 1:1

David BlatnerKeymasterUsually, if you move an InDesign file from Mac to Windows (or Windows to Mac), the linked images update automatically (if the images are in the Links folder of the Package). Perhaps the person creating the Package is not doing it right?
The fonts problem could be 2 things: If the fonts are Typekit fonts, then you may have to install them (Sync them) with Typekit when you open the document.
But if the fonts are not OpenType fonts, then sometimes they will be Mac-only fonts. This is a problem people have had for 25+ years! However, if you use OpenType fonts, then this should not be a problem, because those work on Mac and Windows.
David BlatnerKeymasterYou could make a new character style that removes the small caps style (turns it off) and then apply that to the “i” with my code.
David BlatnerKeymasterThere should NOT be a space between < and = in that code… sorry… our forum snuck that in.
David BlatnerKeymasterHow are you applying the small caps? Is it with a grep style? Or are you using Find/Chang to apply it?
One idea might be to apply a 2nd style just to
(?<=m|M)i(?=m|M)
(which is "the letter i between two m characters, either upper or lowercase")
David BlatnerKeymasterThat sounds very strange. I cannot think of what would be causing that!
Have you rebuilt your preferences? See: https://creativepro.com/resources/faq
David BlatnerKeymasterYou can change the columns of more than one page or spread at the same time by selecting them in the Pages panel first, or by changing the master pages that the pages are based on.
David BlatnerKeymasterDoes it have to be for CC 2014? That is a pretty old version of InDesign CC!
I believe the newest SDK stuff is here: https://www.adobe.io
We don’t have too many plug-in devs on this forum, though. You might consider looking at the Adobe Dev forums.
