I work for a marketing agency and was looking to implement InCopy into our workflow as the thought of creating a single copy doc to share between not only copywriter, designer and proofing but also the multiple layout interations we create (posters, shelf talks, flyers, etc.) is incredibly alluring. It's as close to "smart copy" that I've seen to date and would save designers hours of work over the length of a job's life.
However, while I have learned how to edit type styles to allow the type to change on the fly the one thing that's preventing me from implementing InCopy's addition is how it doesn't allow custom paragraph rags between shared documents. If there was a way to allow InDesign to track uniqe paragraph breaks per document I think that'd do the trick—but obviously I'm not a software engineer.
If someone's thought of a workaround for this issue, I'd love to hear about it! Have a great day.
