InCopy

I'm new to InCopy and I'm considering making it part of our workflow. However, the layout view doesn't seem to work.We would use it for novels, that have trim dimensions of 5.5" x 8.25". However, in the layout view, the dimensions are always standard letter size, 8.5" x 11". Also, recto and versos don't match. I've tried re-saving as IDML and still have the same issue.See below.InDesign view (correct):InCopy view (incorrect):It's really not even close. Any help would be appreciated!

We have a brand new install of InCopy CC2017 which you cannot change the dictionary from the default US english.We change the Dictionary in the Preferences1) Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Dictionary and change language to English:UK2) Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Autocorrect set the Auto correct to English: UK3) Open a new blank document and type in Colour and Color and run the spell check Colour is picked up as the) When you press Ctrl + I to run a manual spell check the Dictionary still shows the language as English: US5) Tried resetting the preferences for InCopy and resetting the spell check settings and still get the same issue.

We are current using InDesign CC and InCopy 13.0.1. We are able to open ICML and Indd files but not ICMA files. When we double click the file, or open through File>Open, InCopy launches but no window opens. I have read many threads and tried everything that I could find, please advise.

We use InCopy in combination with the Plug-In censhare. After we upgraded to InCopy CC 2017 we cannot use InCopy under Windows 10 anymore because it keeps crashing. The company behind the Plug-In censhare says that there ist a developer Version 12.1.1 build 100 which fixes this error.Could you please tell me, when you will release this fix to the users?Best regardsChristoph MäurerInstitut der deutschen Wirtschaft Medien GmbH

Recently we finished a production of a catalogue for a hotel-chain. Till this year we totally made this in Indesign ourselves, but now we worked with the combination Indesign/Incopy. The client put all the texts (body text, adresses, offers etc) in Incopy, we put the images and charts into the pages.(And completley made all advertisement pages and extraordinary pages) We worked via Google Drive. We made a basic template for 3 languages in which the client could put their texts. This worked well but when we synchronized the pages and made a PDF of the entire document some strange things occur. So one hotel had the textes from another hotel (but in in thje Incopy version of the client the correct text was standing)And the pages have a small title at the top of the page (like a header). i.e. Belgium, The Netherlands, Sweden etc. By some pages the wrong 'header' appeared in the PDF (i.e. Belgium instead of Sweden. (again in Incopy it was OK) Any idea how this could happen. In our studio th

Like many, I originally was thrilled to see that Adobe finally implemented endnotes within Indesign. Unfortunately, this has made me jump through hoops in order to work with endnotes since we use Incopy heavily in our workflow. Is there any timeline for endnote support for Incopy? If not, is there anyway I can convert endnotes to plain text in order to export for Incopy? Thanks for any help.

Leider funktioniert das Umfließen von Bildern in InCopy mal wieder nicht. Den Bug gabe es schon mal. Damit macht das Texten in InCopy keinen Sinn mehr.Gibt es eine kurzfristige Lösung, oder kann nur Adobe das lösen?f

I need to create a text macro that includes a hyperlink.Macros with hyperlinks only work the first time you create them, in the original file that you used to create the macro.​ In other words, when I enter the text that I want to be the macro in an InCopy file and place the macro in that file, the hyperlink is embedded correctly. But if you create a new file, and then try to use that macro, the link becomes incorrect. When you insert the macro into a new file, Instead of linked text correctly linking to, for example, http://adobe.com, it will try to link to InCopy TextMacroshttp://adobe.com and the link won’t work. You can see the problem if you hover over the link in the hyperlinks panel.Is there any way around this? I'm using InCopy CC 2015, but I also checked it in InCopy 2017 and it was the same.

Hello there. I just downloaded a trial version and can't seem to edit text. What are the limitations of the trial version? Thanks a bunch for your time!

Trying to diagnose problems with InCopy. Work for small publishing co. with about 6 people in team - proofer, editors, designers. One designer's computer was recently wiped and all Adobe CC 2017 programs were reinstalled. Since that time, had many probs with InCopy files not opening and crashing program. The machine was upgraded to MacOS High Sierra, where the rest of the team is still on the original Sierra. Could this be the culprit? Don't have any other ideas as to why problems keep[ happening.Thanks.

Our organization has adopted Box as it's cloud platform and my design team uses it to share/collaborate on all projects. There seems to be plenty of documentation and tips on integrating Dropbox and InCopy, but no mention of Box. Help!

I'm not exactly familiar with InCopy so here's the thing. I created several Master Pages for a magazine in InDesign and I want to make it a template so for every new issue I can easily create a new document from that template. Now is there a way to do the same thing with InCopy? Can I link InCopy to the Master Pages, for example, on the master page for interviews, and tell InDesign/InCopy to create a new InCopy Document whenever I use the Master Page on a normal page? What is the workflow here?

Besides complete CC accounts we have two licenses for only InCopy.The Creative Cloud app (updated) on their Macs (Sierra) does not offer an update for InCopy2017 to InCopy2018.InCopy 2017 does not open an InDesign 2018 file.Our workaround is at the moment that the InCopy users open the .icma file.But this method has some issues.How do these two accounts install InCopy 2018?

Incopy users cannot check out assignment. The assignments appear updated on their screen but there is no little icon on the corner of the text block showing the status and any change they do in the text cannot be checked in either then. We use the last updated version (me on inDesign and them on InCopy).I tried relinking the stories through the assignment panel on their incopy but they are linked properly already.We use Google rive. Everything is save or exported on the drive.Any idea what it could be?Thanks for your help

Does anyone have experience with Type on a Path in InCopy? I am able to add the paths to the InCopy assignment, they are visible in InCopy but then aren't able to be edited. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!Ben

My team recently updated across the board to CC 2018. The designers updated first to InDesign and the editors followed with the update to InCopy. Immediately after installing InCopy CC 2018, I noticed the InDesign files on our server were appearing as CS 5.5 InDesign files. I contacted support about it, and the fix was to install InDesign on my computer and open all the design files and resave them. I didn't need to do that. As soon as InDesign was installed, all the files appeared as the newest versions. However, I immediately uninstalled InDesign because I'm an editor and don't need access to it. After uninstalling, all the files reverted back to CS 5.5 icons. We haven't had any compatibility issues, but it is a future concern because my computer thinks they are CS 5.5 files. I would hate for an update to be made that would cause corruption because the new programs couldn't read the old file types. I saw the InCopy update this morning and hoped the bug would be among the fixes, but i

I'm rather new to InCopy so I'm going to explain this the best I can, but I may not have all the correct terminology here. I'm having the following issue:Our designer took an existing indesign file and packaged the document so we can alter the original product to create another by making minor changes. This is a product that requires the Math editor/reader plugin produced by Movemen. The designer exported the duplicated file to InCopy and I've made changes to the package file using InCopy. On certain files, not all, when I tried to "Save Content" or check in, InCopy would freeze (my cursor would be spinnging/thinking indefinitely) and I would have to force close the program. When I reopened the program and reopened the file I was working in some pages in the file would be blank (content gone) and I'd get this error message "Found corrupted MathZone={732,819} at [-1] for story={UID:178918,"Has anyone encountered this or know how I can resolve this issue?

Editors using Incopy CC 18 get an error if they try to open am .indd file that designers have open in InDesign CC18. The whole point of InCopy for us is so that editors can work on files that designers are using. It only happens on files with .idlk files indicating it is open in InDesign. This did not happen before our upgrade to CC18.Also when designers export multiple stories on one page to Incopy it automatically exports everyting with the file name as the first line, but then asks if we want to replace the .icml file it just auto-saved.

Text wrapping is not working properly when creating a new note in InCopy, nor does it work on an existing note. The text will jump to the next line after 61 characters, unless the window is configured for a larger number of characters. This occurs both with and without spaces. Please advise.

I have all the settings correct, but the Track Changes aren't showing. It hasn't been working correctly since this version was installed, Adobe CC 2017.0 release, 12.0.0.81. Anyone else experience this? - Theresa

Hi,I'm not sure of the correct terminology, so please forgive my explanation.I've been having an ongoing problem with InCopy that is steadily getting worse. It started when I lost the 'Gallery and Story Appearance' bar at the bottom of the screen. Although, 'lost' is the wrong word, it's still there, it's just a blank panel. The same problem has now afflicted the Paragraph Styles and Table Cell Styles panels. They are still there but information is not showing.I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling; uninstalling, rebooting and reinstalling; changing screen resolution, all sorts, but nothing seems to fix it.Has anybody experienced this and if so, what did you do to resolve it?Many thanks,Alex

Is there a way to use InCopy track changes to mark changes in character styles?

I'd like to make my clients use Incopy to collaborate on some documents. The fonts in use are from Typekit.Does a standard sole Incopy license come with Typekit support so my client can see the right fonts while editing the text in my Indesign files?Or would this require an extra subscription or seperate font license?The Incopy page does not give details, other than an asterisk that does not refer to anything on the page.InCopy CC vs. CS6 versions | Adobe InCopy CC history

Hi, I am using the latest version of incopy  / indesign, and for the life of me, I can't work out why the text wrap won't display correctly in incopy. The editorial just sits behind the picture, not giving the editor a true representation of the layout designed in indesign. I have tried uninstalling / re-installing the programme, and still doesn't work. The files are stored on one drive, so editor uses them remotely, but when I open the files up locally, they still are not showing the text wrap. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Many thanksSteve

We work in Incopy CC2015 and Indesign. The editor updated hyperlinks in a recent assignment but all the changes seem to get lost or even worse these hyperlinks are missing. The hyperlinks were not behind urls but just text.
