InCopy

My Incopy and Indesign  Menu for adding Notes is greyed out and I cannot add any notes. I have tried looking for tutorials and cannot work out why. Maybe its something to do with my export settings?  

Hello, I have an InDesign document with assigments for InCopy editing.If I update the assigments in the InDesign, and I save the file, can I delete the assigments from the inDesign? Is it safe? Thank you for your answer.

Hi. I need InCopy for my job, which I desperately do not want to lose.A while back I was having issues syncing it with Universal Type Client, so I uninstalled UTC, WoodWing, and InCopy. Now, when I try to to reinstall InCopy, nothing works. The installer runs for 15 seconds or so, and then terminates. It seems to be the exact same issue this guy is having (I wish he was active on reddit earlier than 2 years ago, but then, nobody helped him either, did they?): https://www.reddit.com/r/illustrator/comments/2a7eax/illustrator_cc_wont_install_right/The version of InCopy in the file is 2014. It absolutely has to be 2014, this is non-negotiable for my job.In the log file, I get several variations of this error:| | | 4360 | DR013: Check for Registry permissions (RegistryDeleteV2 - error: 13)(Seq 351)03/20/20 14:10:01:956 | [WARN] | | OOBE | DE | | | | 4360 | DW063: ARKCmdFS.dll:failed for command RegistryDeleteV2 - error: 0(Seq 351)03/20/20 14:10:01:980 | [ERROR] | | OOBE | DE |I have tr

I have been working with InCopy for a number of years now and we have been having a lot of trouble lately. Usually, issues are something like an image is not updating on one of my editor's computers. But recently we have been having issues with my Indesign edits not registering on my Editor's computer. I Create the document in InDesign and Insert the copy for editing in InCopy. He makes the edits which appear on my document but once I have made adjustments on my end, assignments cease to update for him. We are left in a situation where I am having to strip the whole document down and start again, over and over. This has become much more common over the last few months and people are really starting to get frustrated. I checked his version of InCopy and he was running 2019. I am running the 2020 version. I made sure we updated his version but that did not solve anything. We are running our files off of a network, Windows server 16.  I have gone through the message bo

I normally use InCopy on a large PC desktop monitor. My employer just issued me a much smaller laptop to use if I have to work at home. For some reason, the buttons on the toolbars shift to the right each time I open IC on the laptop. After several close/reopens, several of my toolbars appear to have no buttons. This issues seems to affect all toolbars that can be toggled in the Window menu. A few toolbars will always show up correctly if they are turned into buttons on the left or right side of the window. These also correctly resize if I pull out from immediately under the menu bar and then snap them back. However, certain toolbars don't respond to these fixes. Unresponsive toolbars include: Command Bar, Galley & Story Appearance, and Type & Tables. These all share the common element of not being designed to function as buttons at the sides of the screen. Any ideas as to how to make all the toolbars display correctly?

Hi  We're outsourcing some design work but keeping the copy inhouse. Ordinarially, when we do it all in house its a really easy and seemless process for design and copy to work together as we're on one server.  As far as I can see, if people aren't on the same server, the way around this is to package up articles and email them over, then they edit and email them back? It doesn't seem very efficient - is there a way they can be uploaded to, worked from and then saved all while on the document cloud which would sync back to the InDesign file? Any help would be appreciated 🙂 Thank you 

Hello! I work for an advertising agency and we use InDesign and work together with a client who makes their changes in InCopy.  But it seems like the most essential feature is not working properly. We want to work simultaneous at the project, but the "check out" function is not updating between InDesing and InCopy which leads to the fact that both users can edit the same textframe or pictures and overwrite themself. We are all using the lastest Updates of InDesign/InCopy 2020 and our files are all in a shared Creative Cloud folder. Normally we work on Macs and our Client on Windows. But we tested all combinations (Mac-Mac, Mac-Windows, Windows-Windows) and it seems nothing is working.  We spoke to the support, but they haven't found a solution yet... Thanks in advanceLars 

If InDesign is installed on Windows of layout designer, and InCopy is installed on Mac of editor, will this work?

I have a problem that I can't seem to resolve. We have a publishing team that is using InCopy for editing articles. Each user has their own color so we can see who has done what to the article. All these show up for me, but one. One user who's color is yellow, shows up as my color and it also says I made those changes (which I did not). I've upgraded my InCopy. I've upgraded his InCopy (15.0.2). I changed my color. What am I missing? A related issue is that we change the tracking color for a different user and no mater what color we change it to, it comes up as green. What are we missing? Appreciate any help. This is getting frustrating. 

Hi everyone, I've always associated InCopy with magazine, text book, or newspaper workflows. For book production, since we have longer production deadlines and is more of a linear workflow (my turn, your turn), InCopy has not been appealing. I'm taking another look to see if things have changed and see if InCopy has gotten upgraded enough to make it work in book production. I also see that the last version was in 2018. We are in Adobe InDesign 2019 and soon to be 2020. Are there any concerns there? Also, if someone can share their good or bad experiences using InCopy in book production that would be great. Thank you. Nelson

We discovered an issue after updating inDesign to 2020. When a templated word file (from an editor who is working on PC) is brought into inDesign 2020 (on Mac Catalina and Mojave iOS, we tried both) we are unable to export out the inCopy assignments properly. It takes an unusually long time to export and then the editor is getting errors like “Unclosed Token” or when we try to open it just spins until the application stops responding. The incopy files that are being exported are 10x as large as they normally are. When we try to save the indesign files as idmls to open in older versions of inDesign the export gets stuck at 33% and cannot finish. Therefore work that was done in 2020 must be redone in 2019 in order for the editors work with us.This issue is not occurring when we get icml files directly, only files from Word. We have figured out that a workaround for now is to use Indesign 2019 from the beginning of the workflow when we have to use Word documents. Is this a known issue? Is

Windows 10 64 bit InCopy and InDesign 15.0.1I work on creating product manuals in InDesign. I then have to export the text frames and graphics into InCopy assignment files. These get zipped up and sent out to a few translation companies. After a company translates these, they zip them back up and send them back to me where I link them back up to a copy of the InDesign file, which has the language name appended into the file name to distiunguish it from the orginal English version. I recently got a Japanese translation back, but the InCopy file names have been altered. Here's an example of how a file name reads when I generate the InC: itm_ref1_Japanese-初級４フルプログ When I get it back, the same file looks like this: itm_ref1_Japanese-τ▓╛τ┤ó.icml This happens whether the translator is on Windows or a Mac. They are on the same version of InCopy as I am. I'm using the Noto Sans CJK jp regular for the typeface. The translator uses Kozuka Mincho PR6N.Anyone know what's c

Hello, I work with the latest 2019 version of InCopy and I would like to know if I can send my text correction work to customers who instead paginate with the version of Indesign 2018. Is there compatibility or the two different versions of InCopy and InDesign could they create problems?

InCopy CC 2019, Windows 10 64 bitI recently received InCopy assignment files that I need to "reverse engineer" into InDesign. The InCopy files consists of a single .icma assignment file and approximately 1,100 .icml files - text and graphics. How can I output these from InCopy so that InDesign can open it with the layout preserved? I thought the File > Package > Return for InDesign feature would sort this out, but it's greyed out.  

Hello, dear Adobe InCopy users, what location do you recommend for Adobe InCopy files?Do the files need to be on a server (local or cloud?) so that they can be automatically synchronized by the Adobe Creative Cloud - which we use as a license? Sincerely, your Ingo H. KlettHead of Corporate CommunicationsWEBER Packaging GmbH  

Recently upgraded to cc2018. We are using anchored objects (icons- AI files) within text boxes. They are losing their fill after Incopy closes file.  Work flow goes from designer(Indesign) to editor (Incopy). Icons are fine when designer closes file and sends to editor. Editor works file and closes. Designer opens file and Icons have either lost thier fill or have strokes applied. Has anyone experienced this? All of employees are on macs but versions vary. Please help. 

My artist sends me InCopy files, I edit them and return them as InDesign (IDAP) files. I use the "return for InDesign and email" function. All of a sudden, I started receiving an InCopy error box with a red X and a bar that says OK. When I click on the bar, it takes me out of the file. I hadn't done anything to my computer in terms of updates. So I decided to update InCopy to see if that fixed the problem. It still gave me the error box. I tried different files, thinking one was corrupt. Same result. I did find I can package the file as IDAP, save it to my hard drive, then go into my email, attach the IDAP file and email it to her. Not nearly as efficient but it allows us to limp along. We're using Apple mail built around Gmail.

How can I select all articles in the Assignments list so that I can check all in and check out? Thanks

Good evening. I noticed when downloading the creative cloud package that it came with many applications. And many of these applications were new to me. Therefore, I want to study all of them. However, I noticed that two of the applications never displayed or offered a reference guidebook (pdf) to download as you can do for Illustrator, Photoshop, etc. Can you please provide a time and date when the reference guidebooks will be available for the Adobe InCopy and Adobe Bridge applications? 

Hello,My team and I work using Incopy for our editors and Indesign for deigners. Currently we use a inhouse server for the workflow but soon maybe be working fully remote so we need to switch to a cloud server for our workflow. I use BOX and BoxSync for other projects but not with Incopy I worry about people working in documents at the smae time and cuaing issues. Does anyone else use a cloud server for the workflow and if so how and what? thank you for any help, I am trying to avoid havign the editors working directly in indesign if I can.  

When viewing (scrolling) or trying to copy XMP data in InCopy CC2019 the data is greyed out. The scroll bars in the XMP info window do not work and you cannot highlight the text to copy it to a text editor.  This issue seems to have been fixed in InDesign CC2019 (14.0.3), but InCopy is still at release version 14.0.2 and still has this bug.

I use the Adobe Arabic bunch of fonts in one of my websites, currently on Adobe XD. These fonts: https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/adobe-arabic Can you confirm if I swap my Adobe XD  to InCopy I would still be able to use the web fonts on my website? I have tried on multiple occasions to get Adobe helpers to confirm this so far failed and no luck. Kind regards Layik

Hi,I created assignments from my indesign master on Mac and emailed the .icap files to my client working on a PC. He then downloaded them onto a server he shares with a colleague. They are both using the same InCopy licence (as it can be used on two computers).  The first person opens the file, Checks out one of the copy boxes, makes a change, saves the change, checks in the file and closes it... When the second person opens the file, the change is not visible.  When they open the file again they each see their own change but not the other persons change.... How can we solve this issue? 

Explain the question is a rather difficult process so please understand the question carefully, before starting the question, you should know that I have searched for an answer everywhere and for many months.
