Features: • 119 shortcuts across 13 folders, every one read off Adobe's own InDesign shortcut table — Windows and macOS columns both • The typography keys a typesetter actually reaches for: point size and leading up and down, at 1× and 5×, tracking, baseline shift, and clear-all-kerning • Both directions of every increment. Adobe writes them as one line — "Increase/decrease leading" — and a profile that reads it carelessly ships only the increase • All 13 panels on single keys: Control, Character, Paragraph, Paragraph Styles, Character Styles, Tabs, Layers, Pages, Color, Swatches, Stroke, Drop Shadow • The full tool palette — 25 tools, from the pen and anchor-point pair to the frame, shape, transform and gradient tools • Table navigation as its own folder: next and previous cell, first and last in the column and the row, and the two row-break keys • Find and Change on five keys, including insert-selection-into-Find-What, which is the one nobody remembers
Install: double-click any .streamDeckProfile to import. On Windows the App binding is pre-filled to Adobe InDesign and auto-activates on focus. On macOS, set it once under Stream Deck → Preferences → Profiles → App.
Also included: the 357-icon Adobe InDesign icon pack (119 icons in 3 finishes), as a .streamDeckIconPack you can install with a double-click. Every key in this profile, available to drop on any action you like.
