New Feature

InDesign CC 2019 support

For more information about our end of support policies, see Typefi Product Support Lifecycle.

Other changes

• Cleaned up the display names for Typefi panel and context menus (for example, if customising your workspace; for more information, see Workspace and Workflow → Customize menus and keyboard shortcuts)
• Started work on supporting IDML-based roundtrip of Typefi markup additions (Fields, Frames, Elements, and Sections; see Known issues below)

Known issues

• Font Style Linking warnings and errors have not yet been localised for Spanish
• It's not easy to locate Typefi Field instances within a document via scripting (other than looking for text wrapped in U+FEFF characters, but this is not reliable as it is also used for other purposes by InDesign)
• Exporting a Typefi-enabled document to IDML removes most Typefi additions (except for AutoFit parent-child relationships, auto-sizing behaviors, and frame size constraints)

Notices

Every product has a lifecycle. The lifecycle begins when a product is released and ends when it is no longer supported.

Adobe Creative Cloud

Adobe updates and adds new features to Creative Cloud on an ongoing basis. InDesign CC updates are optional and must first be certified for compatibility by Typefi before installing.

NOTE By default, all previous versions of Creative Cloud apps are uninstalled when you update to the latest version. If you want to retain previously installed versions, remember to change the default settings before you start the update process. For more information, see Update Creative Cloud Apps → Advanced options.
