Check out content
When you check out an item, a hidden lock file (.idlk) is placed on the file system. Once the content is checked out,
you have exclusive control over its content, and others are locked out from making changes. You can check out InCopy
content only; you cannot check out InDesign documents with layout information.
If you attempt to close an InDesign document containing one or more InCopy content files that are checked out to
you, an alert message appears, prompting you to check in all content. If you close the document without checking in
the content files, they will still be checked out to you the next time you open the InDesign document. Saving the
InDesign document automatically saves every editable InCopy content file.
