To update the story on the file system, follow the process described in your workflow system documentation or ask your system administrator for information. InCopy file types You can work with several different file types in InCopy. InCopy content files (.icml) This is the default file type when exporting stories or graphics from InDesign, and when saving or creating new documents using InCopy. This file type appears as InCopy Document in the Export or Save As dialog box. InCopy CS3 Interchange files (.incx) This is the file type when saving or exporting stories that can be opened using InCopy CS3. Assignment files (.icma) These files are a subset of an InDesign document. They display content and styles, as well as page geometry from the parent InDesign file. Assignment files can display different levels of visual fidelity (wireframe, assigned spreads, or all spreads). The InDesign user sets these options while creating the assignment file. Only InDesign users can create assignment files; only InCopy users can open assignment files. If you create CS3-compatible assignment files, the .inca extension is used. Assignment package files (.icap) These files are assignment files that have been compressed in InDesign for distribution. Assignment packages include the assignment file, the assigned story files, and any linked images. If you create a package with a CS3-compatible assignment, the .incp extension is used. Template files (.icmt) Templates are useful starting points for stand-alone documents, because you can preset them with page size dimensions, text area dimensions, styles (paragraph and character), XML tags, swatches, pretagged sample content, and so on. Template files open as "Untitled" documents and display content and styles, but no page geometry (layout information from an InDesign document). This file type appears as InCopy Template in the Save As dialog box. InDesign files (.indd) When viewed in InCopy, these files provide full fidelity with the InDesign document, including content, styles, and layout of all page items. InCopy users can edit only those content items made available to them by InDesign users. Other items can be viewed but not edited. You can open several different types of text files, including Microsoft Word, RTF, and TXT files, directly in InCopy. When you do so, the import options for that file type appear.

USING INCOPY CS4
Working with InCopy documents
To save a copy of a story or graphic under a new document name, choose File
> Save Content Copy, specify a
location and filename, and click Save. The saved copy does not become the active document.
To save a copy of a document as a template, choose File
> Save Content As, specify a location and filename, and
then choose InCopy Template from Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Mac
OS).
To save a copy of a document in a format compatible with InCopy CS3, choose File
> Save Content As, specify a
location and filename, and then choose InCopy CS3 Interchange from Save As Type (Windows) or Format
(Mac
OS).
To save a copy of a document in a text format, choose File
> Save Content As, specify a location and filename, and
then choose Text Only or Rich Text Format from Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Mac
OS).
Note:
Saving a managed (linked) document does not update the link in the InDesign file. To update the story on the file
system, follow the process described in your workflow system documentation or ask your system administrator for
information.
InCopy file types
You can work with several different file types in InCopy.
InCopy content files (.icml)
This is the default file type when exporting stories or graphics from InDesign, and when
saving or creating new documents using InCopy. This file type appears as InCopy Document in the Export or Save As
dialog box.
InCopy CS3 Interchange files (.incx)
This is the file type when saving or exporting stories that can be opened using
InCopy CS3.
Assignment files (.icma)
These files are a subset of an InDesign document. They display content and styles, as well as
page geometry from the parent InDesign file. Assignment files can display different levels of visual fidelity (wireframe,
assigned spreads, or all spreads). The InDesign user sets these options while creating the assignment file. Only
InDesign users can
create
assignment files; only InCopy users can
open
assignment files.
If you create CS3-compatible assignment files, the .inca extension is used.
Assignment package files (.icap)
These files are assignment files that have been compressed in InDesign for
distribution. Assignment packages include the assignment file, the assigned story files, and any linked images.
If you create a package with a CS3-compatible assignment, the .incp extension is used.
Template files (.icmt)
Templates are useful starting points for stand-alone documents, because you can preset them
with page size dimensions, text area dimensions, styles (paragraph and character), XML tags, swatches, pretagged
sample content, and so on. Template files open as “Untitled” documents and display content and styles, but no page
geometry (layout information from an InDesign document). This file type appears as InCopy Template in the Save As
dialog box.
InDesign files (.indd)
When viewed in InCopy, these files provide full fidelity with the InDesign document, including
content, styles, and layout of all page items. InCopy users can edit only those content items made available to them by
InDesign users. Other items can be viewed but not edited.
You can open several different types of text files, including Microsoft Word, RTF, and TXT files, directly in InCopy.
When you do so, the import options for that file type appear.
