USING INCOPY CS4 270 XML Icon Name Root element Story element Text element Unplaced text element Unplaced graphic element Table element Header cell element Body cell element Footer cell element Empty element Attribute Comment Processing instruction DOCTYPE element Use Each document includes one root element at the top, which can be renamed but cannot be moved or deleted. Represents tagged stories (one or more linked frames). Represents tagged text within a frame. Unplaced text element not yet associated with a page item. Unplaced graphic element not yet associated with a page item. Represents a table. Represents a cell in the header row of a table. Represents a cell within the body of a table. Represents a cell in the footer row of a table. An empty frame is associated with this element. Includes metadata, such as keywords or location of a linked image (HREF attribute). Includes comments that appear in the XML file, but not the InDesign document. Includes an instruction that triggers an action in applications that can read processing instructions. Tells InDesign which DTD file to use when validating the XML file. Rearrange structured elements You can change the order and hierarchical rank of elements in the Structure pane. However, observe these rules: • Changes to the XML hierarchy structure may affect the appearance of tagged items on InCopy pages. For example, making a text element the child of an element elsewhere in the structure also moves the text in the layout. • You cannot drag a table cell element into a table element or move elements into a table element. ❖ In the Structure pane, do one of the following: • To move an element, drag it to a new location within the structure. A line appears when you drag to indicate where you are inserting the element. The width of the line marks the level within the hierarchy. • To make an element a child of another element, either position it over the parent element to highlight it or place it amongst the parent's other child elements, and then release the mouse button. • To demote an element by one level in the hierarchy, drag it just above another parent element and move it to the left slightly until the line indicating its placement spans the width of the parent element. • To copy or cut an element, select the element or elements in the Structure pane, and then choose Edit > Copy or Edit > Cut. Select the element directly above where you want to insert the element, and choose Edit > Paste. Note: When you cut an element, the element and contents are cut to the clipboard, but the frame remains intact. Updated 29 April 2009

USING INCOPY CS4
XML
Rearrange structured elements
You can change the order and hierarchical rank of elements in the Structure pane. However, observe these rules:
Changes to the XML hierarchy structure may affect the appearance of tagged items on InCopy
pages. For example,
making a text element the child of an element elsewhere in the structure also moves the text in the layout.
You cannot drag a table cell element into a table element or move elements into a table element.
In the Structure pane, do one of the following:
To move an element, drag it to a new location within the structure. A line appears when you drag to indicate where
you are inserting the element. The width of the line marks the level within the hierarchy.
To make an element a child of another element, either position it over the parent element to highlight it or place it
amongst the parent’s other child elements, and then release the mouse button.
To demote an element by one level in the hierarchy, drag it just above another parent element and move it to the
left slightly until the line indicating its placement spans the width of the parent element.
To copy or cut an element, select the element or elements in the Structure pane, and then choose Edit
> Copy or
Edit
> Cut. Select the element directly above where you want to insert the element, and choose Edit
> Paste.
Note:
When you cut an element, the element and contents are cut to the clipboard, but the frame remains intact.
