By default, InCopy
checks for missing links and tries to resolve them when you open a document. Two preference
options let InCopy
check for and find missing links automatically when you open a document.
Check Links Before Opening Document

opens the document immediately, and the
link statuses remain pending until links are determined to be up-to-date, missing, or modified. If you turn on this
option, InCopy
checks for modified or missing links.
Find Missing Links Before Opening Document
If you turn off this option, InCopy
does not attempt to resolve the
missing links. You may want to turn off this option if links slow performance to a server or if unexpected linkings
occur. This option is dimmed if Check Links Before Opening Document is turned off.
Search For Missing Links
Use the Search For Missing Links command to search for and resolve missing links in your
document. This command is useful if you turned off the preferences option that checks for missing links when you
open a document, and now you have missing links. This command is also useful if you mount a server where images
are stored after opening a document.
To change link settings, open the File Handling section of the Preferences dialog box, and determine whether the
Check Links Before Opening Document and Find Missing Links Before Opening Document options are selected.
To let InCopy
attempt to resolve missing links, choose Utilities
> Search For Missing Links from the Links panel menu.
This command is dimmed if the document contains no missing links.
