Adobe InCopy CS3 software is a professional writing and editing program that tightly integrates with Adobe InDesignÆ CS3 software to enable collaborative editorial workflows.
When contemplating an InCopy workflow, there are two primary areas of concern...
From editors: "Will I now be doing more styling than writing?"
From designers: "Will I be opening up my layouts to the graphically impaired?"
Though they are too polite to say this out loud, the worries are well founded.
In our meeting we plan to address three areas:
FIELD TESTED INDESIGN TIPS FOR AN INCOPY WORKFLOW
Both editors and designers will benefit from these rapid styling and layout tips. This includes suggestions for re-engineering documents to make them even more InCopy-compatible.
INCOPY FEATURES & CS3 ENHANCEMENTS
Editors will get an effective tour of the InCopy workspace and see functionality available only in InCopy.
By the end of this segment, authors/editors will have the foundation to create high-powered InDesign-compatible documents, as well as edit existing ones.
DEVELOPING AN INCOPY WORKFLOW
Tips for examining your editorial and design needs, then blending a solution that can be flavored to your taste.
There are several ways for Editors and Designers to "connect" using InCopy/InDesign.
We will give you a way to gain experience with the tools, then "migrate" to more involved methods for connection and collaboration.
