Importing graphics
Import graphics
InCopy allows you to import graphics into existing frames. This is especially useful where content is created before the
layout, because you can choose the graphics for your articles as you write.
You can import graphics into existing frames only. Only InDesign users can create graphics frames. In standalone
InCopy documents, you can insert a graphic into the default text frame, making it an inline graphic.
InCopy supports the same wide range of graphics file formats as InDesign, including graphics created using Adobe®
Illustrator® 8.0 and later, bitmap formats such as PDF, PSD, TIFF, GIF, JPEG, and BMP, and vector formats such as EPS.
You can even import InDesign (INDD) pages as images. Other supported formats include DCS, PICT, WMF, EMF,
PCX, PNG, and Scitex CT (.SCT).
Notes on placing graphics in InCopy
When you import graphics into InCopy, keep the following in mind:
For managed content, you must check out a frame before you can import a graphic into it.
Once you import a graphic, you can transform (move, scale, rotate, shear) it inside the frame, fit the graphic to the
frame, and control the graphic’s appearance. You can also tag a selected frame for future XML use by selecting
commands from the context menu.
When InDesign users create a new frame, they specify whether it is a text, graphics, or unassigned frame. InCopy
users cannot change this frame type within InCopy. Therefore, if you try to import a graphic into a text frame, for
example, it may appear as a large inline graphic.
You can select and modify the graphics but not the frames in InCopy, unless they are nested or inline frames. Only
InDesign users can modify graphics frames.
You can place, paste, or drag graphics into an anchored, floating, or inline graphics frame. You can import a graphic
into a text frame only if that frame has an active insertion point or is an inline graphics frame.
If you import a graphic into a nested frame, the graphic is imported into the deepest-level frame under the pointer.
Nested frames that contain graphics, unlike top-level frames, can be selected with the Position tool. (See
Position
tool overview.)
If an effect, such as transparency, drop shadow, or feathering, is applied to a frame in InDesign, it will be visible in
an assignment file or InDesign (.indd) file open in InCopy. It will not be visible in a linked (.icml) file open in
InCopy.
Place a graphic in an InCopy document
1 Do one of the following:
To place a graphic in a standalone InCopy document, place the insertion point in the text frame.
To place a graphic in a linked document, make sure the graphics frame is checked out to you. The Editing icon
appears in the upper left corner of the frame.
2 Choose File > Place and select a graphics file.
3 To set format-specific import options, select Show Import Options to see format-specific settings, and then click
Open.
