InDesign and InCopy Workflow

[Joby0D4D]

Hi,

I request some information on InDesign & InCopy workflow. I work with InDesign CC layout and typesetting. Now one of my client (an editor) would like to make text edits by himself in an InCopy file from my typeset InDesign document. How can I create/share my InDesign typeset document to my client as an InCopy file for making text edits only (not any layout changes). Also once editor made text changes into the shared InCopy file, how can I integrate/embedd those updated InCopy within my InDesign document. I am new to this workflow. Can anyone help me into this workflow?

Thanks

JA

I work with editors also. and they also like to edit their own files.

we ended up having an adobe certified instruction come teach indesign for editors. took one day to teach what would apply to them. 

I know incopy is available for this. However, we went with indesign for everybody approach and it has worked out for us.
