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.
