I added a couple of new topics to InDesign Help.
What to do if InDesign freezes
Common InDesign error messages
At Adobe, I'm responsible for documenting features in various products. Other people at Adobe write tech notes for error messages and installation problems. However, I've noticed that several people search Help to find installation and error message solutions.
So I thought I might help those people by directing them to the appropriate tech note that addresses the issue.
If you're aware of an error message that's not in that topic and should be, please leave a comment either here or in the error messages topic. I'll add the error message to the list and link to the relevant tech note. And if no tech note exists for the error, I'll contact Matt to see if he can create one.
I'm trying to open files that were previously created on another machine. when I try to open them on my work machine they crash Indesign and give this error message.
AppName: indesign.exe AppVer: 5.0.4.682 ModName: optical kerning.apln
ModVer: 5.0.0.458 Offset: 00028112
I can open them on my MAC at home and other machines. How can I resolve this for my work PC?
I had the same issue come up on my system. I would look into whether there is an update for the graphics card. It solved my problem.
