Managed-file workflow examples
When you establish workflow management between InCopy and InDesign, writers and editors can compose, rewrite,
expand, and edit documents at the same time that designers prepare the layout. Common workflows include managing
files on a local server, sharing files via e-mail packages, or using some combination of the two methods.
These workflows assume that you have a basic InDesign template with layout geometries, styles, and placeholder text.
Layout geometries include page dimensions as well as text and graphics frames. InCopy uses these items to show proper
copyfit information.
Local server workflow
1.In InDesign, create assignments and add content to them.
This step incorporates exported text and graphics frames into the managed process, where they become available to
InCopy users for writing and editing.
2.Make the assignment files available to InCopy users.
Save the files to a server that all workflow users have access to.
3.In InCopy, open the assignment file, and check out and edit a story or graphic.
In InCopy, the files containing content assigned to you appear in the Assignments panel. Whenever you save the file on
a local server, the changes are saved on the file system and anyone working on that document (the InDesign layout or
another managed content file in the document) receives notification of the changes. Those users can update the content
to view the latest changes. The content remains checked out to you until you check it in.
4.In InDesign, work on the layout.
Regardless of whether the content files are being edited in InCopy, InDesign users can work on the document layout;
they don’t have to check out the document. Whenever the InCopy user saves the checked-out content, the InDesign
user can update that content within the layout to see the latest revisions.
5.In InCopy, continue working.
When finished with your edits, check in the content. Other users are then able to check out the content and work on it.
If a user is modifying the layout in InDesign simultaneously, you can update and view the layout geometry as you work.
6.In InDesign, make sure that all the content is checked in.
The managed workflow makes it possible to know who has checked out files. After content files are checked in,
InDesign users can check out the files to finalize the layout as necessary.
E-mail package workflow
1.In InDesign, create and send assignment packages.
Create assignment packages and assign contents to the appropriate InCopy users, and then send the packages to the
InCopy users. The packaged files are automatically checked out to help avoid editing conflicts.
2.In InCopy, open the assignment package, and check out and edit a story or graphic.
If you receive an assignment package in e-mail, double-click the package to open it in InCopy. Changes you make to
the file are saved only locally. Other users are not notified when you make changes.
3.In InDesign, work on the layout.
