With a text loaded cursor, want to hold down shift and you will notice your cursor changes to the autoflow icon.
Be careful not to confuse this with holding down opt or alt which is semi autoflow, which is different cause you have to click on each page until the cursor is unloaded.
Another interesting topic for you to review is text threading in Adobe’s Help.

Try to reset your InDesign preferences
In Windows, start InDesign, and then press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete your preference files.
In Mac OS, while pressing Shift+Option+Command+Control, start InDesign. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete your preference file
Is the letter that gets swapped consistent or random (EG: “w” always type in as an “e”). When thsi start try to see if this happens in photoshop or even just renaming a folder in windows or mac os.
Immediately after this begins to happen look at your undo to see what it woudl undo (incase it is a keyboard command inadvertedly being hit). Also try to see if ti is related to a font you are using, and if this happens in another font.
Lastly do a Ctrl Y to see if this happens in the story editor.
Interesting problem, especially since it is intermitient, never heard of this one, do u think it could be a virus, I know there are a small few that affect InDesign only.

The answer to your question is within Phothoshop not InDesign. Save a copy of the file as either photoshop PDF or EPS. Both of those formats RIP vector data to postscript printers.
Any smart graphics, shapes layers will reproduce with vector quality. Remember in InDsign to do a option command H to change to high quality view, and your vector items will look SHARP and crisp.

Easiest way might be to open the InDesign file on a PC and make a PDF from a PC.
Try also opening the InDesign PDf in Acrobat Pro and doing a save as.
Also try to print to the pdf printer form InDesign to generate a PDF that way, rather than using the InDesign export command.
Does the file open on the PC, but all the characters substitued to bullets.

In the Paragraph palette, click the Align to Baseline Grid button (the icon which looks like 2 groups of 5 lines aligned).

With no document open change your settings for your line tool in InDesign.
You can change the defaults of many InDesign tools by configuring them with no document open.

From the swatches flyout menu do a select all unused, and then delete these for now.
You may notice some swatches were not selected, that is because they might be used by a placed graphic, or in a style sheet.
People often in adobe illustrator may leave a stray point that is specified in a color. I would do a save as on your document, then begin deleting graphics till you find the culprit.
InDesign will allow you to delete swatches taht are utilized within InDesign and replace them, but is not able to tell other programs to trade swatches.

I never did 40,000, but can you try to divide and conquer and maybe do this in 4 documents of 10,000 each.
You could stitch the 4 documents together in a book if you wanted to print them all at once.
Sorry I am not familiar with the other apps, direct mail is the one thing I do not do.

I believe that you have a master page text box that is linked to you next page. Within the text box on page 1 you have a table, and when adding tables within that text box you found that they get split when flowing from page 1 to 2.
You can easily solve this by placing a forced page breakn [Enter on your keyboard] as a charcater in between your tables.
