InCopy

Dear All,I am a beginner to InCopy application. After I have installed the application, I find everything appearing too big and the zoom option is greyed out at 100%. Can someone please suggest what needs to be done so that it fits my screen? All other applications seem to work fine.Best,Soham

I filed this as a bug report earlier but thought I'd explain it here in case someone was interested. This has probably existed since CS3 when you could first track changes in tables. This can be reproduced in InDesign as well if you're working with ICMLs.If you are using track changes and make a change to multiple cells (by copying and pasting) these will initially be tracked. However if you save the document and then re-open it the tracking for these changes is gone. To reproduce this:1. Create a table in InCopy like this:2. Select two cells:3. Paste the contents of these cells in two other cells:4. Initially these changes will be shown in Galley/Story view as tracked:5. However, as soon as you save and reopen the document they disappear:This basically occurs any time you copy and paste from more than one cell into two or more cells. (It works as expected if you do one cell at a time.) So if you move an entire column or row in this manner, or add rows and columns and move content arou

Hi. How can I view an InCopy document's history to see when changes were made to it and by whom? Thanks for any help.

Hi all,is it possible in inCopy to view a file in single pages instead of in spread?Even if the inDesign file is made in spread?thanks

I haven't run into this before.When I open my Assignments files, created from my InDesign document, in InCopy many but not all text boxes are vertically justified "center" rather than at the top of the text box as they appear in InDesign. The text boxes are threaded several on one page, and then from page to page, where the first text box is bottom justified. That one is behaving correctly in InCopy, however the next text box in the thread is center justified (vertically). Is this a known issue, and has anyone discovered a fix for it. I have many other similarly laid out files that don't behave this way.Thank you for any help you can give.Kraeg

Hey guys,I'm running CS3 (I know, I've tried to get work to update but they refuse). I started noticing an issue where formatting was being stripped from .doc files, so I reinstalled CS3, and have cause myself even more dramas.Now, "InCopy" no longer appears in the Edit menu, and I can't export .incx files anymore. This is a critical part of our workflow and I need to get it back. I also can't update .incx files that have been updated by our writers -- equally as important to our workflow. I get the error message "Cannot place this file. No filter found for requested operation."Any help? As I said, I've just reinstalled, so that shouldn't be the issue.Cheers,Ben

Wenn ich in ein Aufgaben-Paket einen bedingten Text erstellen will, dann graut er mir "neue Bedingung" aus. Wenn ich es bei einem neuen InCopy Dokument mache, dann funktioniert alles wie gehabt.Woran kann das liegen?

Hello,we got a problem managing/editing texts in Incopy over different fileshares on a linux server.We are using Incopy 2017 and Indesign 2017.The Problem:Texts from Volume 1 will be connected to a Incopy file on Volume 3.The text can be displayed, but not managed.If you click on the text, we get the following message: Textfile could not be opened.If the textfile is located on the same Volume the textfile could be managed.Any ideas?

We got the problem that connected texts in indesign documents can be edited by more than one user.Usually you the message "The text is being edited by ****" but here we wont get it.This parallel editing leads to losses of changes in those texts.We use InCopy CC 2017/2015 and InDesign CC 2017/2015.Any ideas?

InCopy is like a subset of InDesign. InDesign has document preferences and application preferences. Would the same be true of InCopy? Are some of its preferences document-centric as opposed to application-centric? I'm trying to compile a list of which is which.Mike Witherell in Maryland

Using latest release of inCopy on macOS 10.12.4. According to the documentation (and as demonstrated in a Lynda.com video), panels can be docked on the top and bottom of the screen in addition to the sides.However, when I try to do this, I do not get the blue line/highlight that indicates a panel will dock when the mouse is released.I have restarted the app, the OS, and have trashed preferences, to no avail.

Hola, he trabajado en InCopy varios archivos. Luego de hacer los cambios los envió al diseñador pero él no los visualiza en InDesing. Qué puede estar pasando?

I have incopy CS6 and am working on a project with a designer who has a current subscription. I haven't used my incopy for three years, but it did open when I tried it.  It seems to be working with her layouts, but when it first opens, I get the message that "Incopy might be damaged. Please re-install." Then it opens, though it's not allowing me to add notes to the file. Any advice? Am I doing some damage to the files that we don't know about? Thank you.

How do I stop a reflow of text that has been edited in InCopy when I update the assignment in InDesign?I need to select all the copy and reapply the Optical spacing option to get it to fit my layout again.In this example, the end of the story is not even visible until I do this step.

I'm about to setup a workflow with an editor for new project, which involves her to sign up for a sole InCopy CC monthly subscription. I wonder: does this license also incorporate the use of Adobe Bridge?

Hi Adobe Staff,This message is especially for you. I already wrote to the german chat support. Very horrible and incompetent. Sorry. We and the editorial office of monthly magazine and organized a new workflow with InDesign and InCopy. Yesterday we finished the project, but it was a bit horrible. The magazine has roundabout 124 pages or 180 pages. Lot of information and roundabout 300 / 400 pictures. I am the designer and i organized the workflow in different categories. These categories are also the tasks for InCopy / InDesign. There are roundabout 3-5 editors which work with InCopy. Two or three editors in the office, two editors outside the office. That's the reason because we had organized all files in a dropbox account and every worker has access to this central cloud server.The workflow is good, but the problem is, that InDesign or InCopy crashes constantly if we refresh one or more tasks, boom. Its very horrible, and we made every 1 or 2 hours a backup from the indesign file. i

Hi All,We are using InCopy workflow for InDesign XML files. When I try to create the assignment for all stories from InDesign file, the stories was created only for XML tagged child text frames. Stories not created for main text continue text frames.When I delete the tag for tagged child text frames, stories created for all main text frames.Anyone suggest me how to create the assignments for all frame include child and root element tagged text frames. I have attached screen shot for your easy reference.InDesign File:     

Does InCopy CC 2016 have a libraries panel as in InDesign?

Want to create a multiple column layout for incopy users for sizing and visualization of copy, as this application is new for the editorial department who have been using word in the past. Have made template in indesign but have to export selection and that links to incopy file and can't be resaved as new content. Any help would be great. Thanks

Hello, Anchored text frames from InDesign do not show in Story or Galley view inside of InCopy. You only see the anchor icon, and not the text to edit. In order to edit that anchored text, the editor seems to need to know to go into Layout view. Is this correct behavior or is there a setting where a user can see and edit anchored text inside of Story or Galley views?

I'm trying to place and link an Excel spreadsheet to an InCopy table. Adobe Support available at the following link ...InCopy Help | Creating tables states..."If you want to maintain a link to the spreadsheet, select the Create Links When Placing Text And Spreadsheet Files option in File Handling preference settings."Although this Create Links option is available within the InDesign edit preferences dialog box, it is not available in the InCopy dialog box.I'm using InCopy 2017.0 release on a Windows machine.

Hi there,I have formatted a 224 page catalog using master pages for each section and it includes multiple InCopy Stories. The file is 224 page not broken out into chapters. I have linked boxes, one image that is anchored to every text box and repeated on every page and I have created a generated index which pulls the titles from each page to create the index. This mean that every title on almost every page includes a “tag” so that it can be included in the generated list.I have tried splitting up the stories so each section has 20 stories or so, and I have also tried making one “long” story that includes 20 pages. Either way, InDesign stops responding.I do not send stories out as packages. They are accessed on one central drive and the InDesign files are also on the same drive. There are only two editors that access these stories, besides myself. I don't think it's an InCopy issue but it might be. I have tried for several months to figure out this issue but have not been successful. Du

For a extensive project I'm trying to come up with a smart workflow. There'll  be a short moment of time where I have to weave in the content with the design in an effcient way. One strategy I'm looking into now is starting with a very basic 'catalogue' layout I make in Indesign for the image/ text editors to fill in with Incopy. My plan was then to link that same content to the actual layout in a different Indesign document.A first issue I bump into: when increasing the image in the real layout to e.g. a full page image, in the catalogue design that image also becomes large within it's image frame. Question: is there a way to disconnect this layout information from the incopy file?I reckon it's a handy feature, also if you'd like for instance to make both a horizontal and vertical layout based on same Incopy input.

Hey,I'm running the latest Indesign CC 2017 and Incopy CC 2077. When I export an incopy file all text default to "Ignore Text Wrap"Please Help.
