About InCopy workflows
Tight integration between InCopy and InDesign enables a workflow that lets writers, editors, and designers work
simultaneously on the same InDesign document, without overwriting each other’s work. The workflow system allows
users to check files out and in, thereby preserving file integrity.
InCopy users can view their content contributions within the context of layouts without installing InDesign. Using
InCopy, writers and editors can take full control of text, including typesetting functions such as applying formatting
styles (usually imported from InDesign), copyfitting, adjusting line and page breaks, setting hyphenation, kerning, and
so on. InCopy users can import graphics to enhance their stories, and make limited transformations on those graphics,
such as scaling and cropping. After the content is saved in InCopy, the document can be updated in InDesign. In
addition, InDesign users can share design updates with InCopy users, ensuring they are working with the latest layouts.
Typically, a system integrator customizes the interaction between InCopy and InDesign, setting up and defining the
workflow system for the group. The workflow system controls file creation, synchronization (with the master server),
and viewing. InCopy and InDesign work with several different workflow systems, including the built-in system enabled
by the InCopy® LiveEdit Workflow plug-ins for small workgroups. For specific details about your workflow system, talk
to the system integrator.
About linked (managed) documents
A linked InCopy document is a content file (either text or graphics) that is placed in an open InDesign document or
assignment file. The content is associated with an InDesign layout, and therefore managed by the InDesign document.
The InDesign user makes this connection from within InDesign; you cannot create or manage the link from InCopy.
The InDesign connection can be made before the InCopy user starts writing and editing text, while the writing is in
progress, or after the text work is finished. Once the content is linked, the InCopy user can see (but not change) the
page layouts, styles, and so on, as they appear in the InDesign document.
Linked documents have the following additional characteristics:
With a linked InCopy file, you can do just about anything that concerns the text itself. For example, you can specify
text-formatting options, change fonts, and carry out other editing and copyfitting functions within the design and
formatting limits of the InDesign layout and your workflow system. You cannot, however, change the text or
graphics frames, column layout, threading sequence, or any other design elements; these are set up in InDesign.
Linked content is managed by your workflow system, where it is locked for access control. Your system might offer
several options for opening a linked story, such as checking out each InCopy file so that you alone can work on it.
For instructions, see your workflow system documentation or ask your system administrator, or check out content
using InCopy if your workflow uses the InCopy LiveEdit Workflow plug-ins.
Working with multistory files
When you work with linked documents, you can have more than one InCopy story in an InDesign file, depending on
your workflow system. A file with multiple stories must be created in InDesign as either an assignment file or an
InDesign file with linked InCopy content. You cannot use InCopy to create a multistory document. See your workflow
system documentation for details.
Multiple stories are shown and separated in Galley and Story views with a story separator bar. The story separator bar
provides easy access to each story created within an InDesign document.
The story separator bar contains the story title and an expand and collapse button which enables you to show or hide
each story. When a story is collapsed, the text is hidden and the story separator bar remains visible within the edit pane.
