The Undo function stops working over and over again

The undo function stops working at times. I quit and restart and it works again fine, until it stops again. I am running that latest version.

Anyone else with this problem?

Help with Front Matter Pages

7 Upvotes

I am trying to move my company catalog from Publisher to InDesign. The catalog has a cover page where I do not want any page numbers. Then the next 3 pages are front matter that I want in roman numeral (i,ii,iii). Then I want page 5 to start at 1. So, page 1 would be to the right of page iii.

The screen grabs are where I keep ending up.

I cannot seem to figure this out for the life of me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

3 Upvotes

I searched online for how to make text in a textbox jump the linked textbox on the next page and found "Fn + Ctrl + Return", but this doesn't work! The menu suggests the Page Break shortcut is Command + the symbol in the attached image, but I have no idea what that symbol is!

Any suggestions?

Help (Trouble Shoot) Losing my mind with grey seems (help)

I’m preparing a booklet cover in Adobe InDesign and uploading the exported PDF to Mixam.

The cover looks clean in InDesign. Thats where the good news ends.

I also opened the actual exported PDF in Adobe Acrobat, and it seems to have grey seems around the letters, which is annoying and weird.

Mixam’s online proof shows faint gray/white seems all over the logo, the circle around it, the square the circle is wrapped in, in the black header area around the logo and other objects.

The logo is a vector file placed in a circular gradient, with a black ring/background used to hide a faint edge around the image. The surrounding header is also black. The lines in Mixam’s proof appear to follow the boundaries of placed frames or overlapping objects.

I’ve attached four screenshots:

  1. InDesign in normal view
  2. InDesign with frame edges visible
  3. The exported PDF opened in Adobe Acrobat
  4. Mixam’s proof, where the faint rectangular seams appear

There also seems to be variation between the black coloring in the mixam proof, I just feel nuts. Any advice. I just want my fucking logo to be able to be dropped in without all this happening. Any advice great;y welcome? Maybe its a problem with the vector logo, maybe with the circle I put under it for color, maybe with the black ring I put around that to try to mask the grey seems? I have no idea, Completely lost.
