MemberThank you for your attention Masood.
One more thing. Servers polices and permissions in a Windows server can be applied only for a Mac computer? Because I use a virtual machine with Windows using the same network server and everything works fine with Indesign. The issue is really only on my Mac OS.
MemberLike you said, I tried to open from a different server and got the same error. The spinning ball last forever, I need to Force Quit Indesign and open it again, and the file open.
That issue is not only for me, that’s a lot of people complaining about the same bug:
This is weird.
MemberMy main problem is that I can not open some files on our server with Indesign. When we make the package, one of these steps is “Open document”, and that’s where Indesign stops working. On the desktop I can open any file so it will work.
Now, I’m using a script that renames the Documents fonts folder to xDocuments fonts, overriding it when I open a file, because that’s the only way I can open it on our server and when I make a package I disable the “Copy fonts” option. Because of this I know the problem is when the program will read this folder for some reason.
I already talked to my IT team and everything is set up right and I am the administrator of the machine.
MemberHi!
I’ve updated to Indesign 2019 and Mojave but continued with same problem, can’t package or open a file in my network server.
But with so many tries, I found that I can’t package from server with Indesign 2019 and Mojave because the “Documents fonts” folder is in there! When you uncheck this in the package option works! I even can open files normally when there is not that folder in my Indesign file root folder. It’s a font problem! What can I do now? Theres a way to send this information direct to Adobe?
Thank you.
MemberDavid, with the same user and same access all works fine in a Windows computer.
MemberI thought the error happened only when opening a document (this is my case) and not Indesign itself. Sorry.
I hope someone comes here to help you.
MemberHi Steve.
Download the file from here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fh8e67pzjvixnzm/avoid%20dialog%20box.jsx
You can save the file in the Scripts Panel folder.
After that, just open your Indesign without any document.
Go to Window > Utilities > Scripts
You will find the script in the Application folder (click the little arrow beside the name).
Double-click in the script and the “Open file” dialog box will open, choose your Indesign document.
Try these steps!
MemberYes, David. I even reinstalled Indesign.. the problem get worse with Mojave
MemberI need to force quit Indesign everytime and even restart the computer to open the program again.. I don’t know what do do anymore
MemberI went to try to do the steps to make a list and now the package don’t works by no means… shows only the message to wait the links packing but Indesign freezes… Oh my god..
MemberYes David. All OK. The indesign file opens normally, the links are there, but I can’t export PDF or a new package, shows the error… and I can’t copy, delete and do nothing with the files in the folder “Links” and “Document Fonts”.
This happening only in macOS. The same indesign file, packaging from the same network in Windows PC is normal. :(
MemberCopy the code in a txt file, save in your scripts folder with “.js” extension.
MemberI’m having the same problem too in a VM and like Niels said, the program crashes everytime the Font dialog boxes appears, to solve I use one script that open the file, deactivate dialog box when Indesign opens and activate back after the document is opened.
var file = File.openDialog(“Open InDesign document”, “Documents:*.indd”);
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
var myDoc = app.open(file);
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;MemberMemberApply a character style to all misspelled words in document.
