InDesign 4.04 Update Released by Adobe

2

While it doesn’t appear that my particular gripe-of-the-moment was solved, Adobe has just released a free update to 4.04 that does squash a large number of bugs and problems that people have been experiencing. In particular, it appears that the behavior around images that have had their canvas size changed in Photoshop has been resolved. That is, Adobe “fixed” a problem in 4.03, many customers complained about the “fix,” and Adobe has quickly responded by removing the “fix” and returning to how InDesign worked in 4.02.

As I read through the 4.04 notes, I see that dozens of other issues have been resolved, too. Note that you should be able to update InDesign from within the program by choosing Help > Update. However, as I type this, that doesn’t appear to be working yet. Alternately, you can visit the 4.04 update page Mac OS X or Windows.

David Blatner is the co-founder of the Creative Publishing Network, InDesign Magazine, CreativePro Magazine, and the author or co-author of 15 books, including Real World InDesign. His InDesign videos at LinkedIn Learning (Lynda.com) are among the most watched InDesign training in the world.

    Hi David, very nice website, incredible resouce thank you.
    Quick question:
    Did they change some shortcuts in indesign CS2?
    My old Ctrl-D for “place” is now “do-again” (same as illustrator) and ctrl-E is now “place”. But I can’t find anything about this online, and do you have any details of other changes to shortcuts that might have sneaked in?
    Thanks.
