Export InCopy documents
You can save all or part of an InCopy document in a different file format. In most cases, each component (for example,
text frames and graphics) in an InCopy document is exported to a separate file. The exception is exporting an InCopy
document to Adobe PDF, which copies all of the text and graphics in a document to a single PDF file.
1
Do one of the following:
•
To export text, click in the text with the Type tool
• To export a graphic, click the graphic with the Position tool
2
Choose File > Export.
3
Specify a name and location for the exported content, and then select a format under Save As Type.
The XML format appears in the list only if XML tags have been added to the document. If you are exporting text and
don't see a listing for your word-processing application, you might need to export the text in a format that the
application can import, such as Rich Text Format. If your word-processing application doesn't support any of the
InCopy export formats, use the Text Only (ASCII) format.
Note: Exporting in ASCII format removes all character attributes from the text. To retain all formatting, use the InCopy
Tagged Text export filter.
4
Click Save to export the content in the format you've selected.

Rename InCopy stories
When a story is exported from InDesign, it is given a document filename with a .icml extension (or .incx for CS3
compatible stories). InCopy automatically uses this filename as the story name that appears in the Assignments panel
and story separator bar. Unlike the filename, the story name is embedded in the file.
1
To change a story name manually, open a story file in InCopy.
2
Choose File > Content File Info.
3
Make sure that the Description tab is selected, and then type a new name for Document Title.
Note: Depending on the workflow processes of your system, an administrator might have to change the story name for
you. If you are unable to rename the story by following the steps above, talk to your workflow administrator.
You can also change the story name in the Assignments panel when the story is checked out. However, the filename is
not changed on disk.
Adobe Version Cue
Adobe Version Cue® CS4 is an asset management system that lets designers work collaboratively on a set of common
files without having to change their workflow significantly. Designers can easily track and manipulate multiple
versions of files.
Version Cue handles the following tasks:
•
Creating versions of your files
•
Enabling workgroup collaboration (file sharing, version control, the ability to check files in and out)
