Work with InDesign and InCopy

I'm a copyeditor work remotely with a designer on a small magazine. I receive and edit copy in Word format, then send the link edited to the designer, always in Word format. It is using InDesign CS5. The problem is that when he sends me proof in pdf format and I make final corrections the pdf, I don't always get the result I was expecting: sometimes he lacks corrections or enters their wrong.

In order to give me more control over the text, we consider becomes InDesign CC for me, so that I can send properly formatted copy. I know that I could create an exit in InDesign CC that he could use in CS5.

I hadn't known about before InCopy, but obviously, it would be the ideal solution. Looking at other issues, I believe that it does not need to use InCopy CC out in InDesign CS5. Assuming that I can't convince the boss to get InDesign CC for the designer and InCopy CC for me, what is my best alternative?

Is InCopy only a subset of InDesign? Can I use as easily as InCopy, without taking into account the aspect of InDesign layout? Or InCopy is a far superior product for a publisher who do not conceive? Any ideas would be very appreciated.

Peter

InCopy would be the best solution for you. InCopy is the little brother of InDesign, but both must be in the same version to work together flawlessly.

InCopy is a lot cheaper and easier than InDesign as it is lack of capacity of layout, but the two of you need to understand both applications.

As a general rule, if 2 people work on the same document, they should have the same versions between 2 InDesigns or InDesign and InCopy, any workflow that requires IDML should be avoided.

Why are there so many corrections in your current workflow? If you do your Word Document correctly and put in place with the styles without any manual format overrides, no hyphenation, no continuous return several it should reduce the number of corrections in the first place.

    That all depends on what you want to share

    The data files that are "industry standard" such as the JPG images are the same on both platforms

    Files that are specific to the platform, such as video files on a Mac or Windows, AVI video files MOV will either require conversion or additional software (to open a MOV file with a Windows program, you must have installed Apple Quicktime for Windows)

    In addition to this, the files that are specific to Adobe... such as the InDesign files... are not always compatible because of new features in newer versions, like a Premiere Pro video project file created in the 2015 version cannot open in 2014 version

    If you have problems with files and specific programs, you should ask for help in the forums for these programs

    I get the following error messages

    I can't hit or not, because the same error guard jumping until I have to force quit.

    I'm on a MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. I have 10.3 free 120 GB.

    The installation program was on an external drive and I installed from there (it is always plugged). Could it be the problem?

    I uninstalled all CC and reinstalled and get the same problem.

    I seem to have answered my own question and I wanted to share the answer in case anyone else had the same problem. Less than a response and more than a work-around (and Peter Spier above answer is probably the best bet) but I did delete the folder of plugins for both InDesign and InCopy, then using a flash drive, copied my files of Plugins of co-workers and that did the trick!

  • Linotype Decoration Pi will not work with InDesign CS6

    Linotype Decoration Pi fonts will not work with InDesign CS6. If I buy a new version of the Sdobr store, will it work?

    Thanks to each of you respond to my concern. I used the glyphs Palettes before but did not expect way bulky to handle the task. With my old Linotype Decoration Pi police, press and it's there.

    I spent several hours before to buy trying to get answers before buying but the support has been no help. I have not sucked into the monthly Plan of the clouds.

    Not a good solution, but a solution.

    Thanks again.

  • I used to work with Interbase and Firebird and used databases the keyword "domain". I am now switchig to Oracle as a primary database and would like to find an alternative appropriate "domain" in Oracle, as it appears he does ' t taken in charge the stand

    I used to work with Interbase and Firebird and used databases the keyword "domain".

    I am now switchig to Oracle as a primary database and would like to find a suitable

    Variant of 'area' in Oracle such that it appears he does ' t support the standard SQL syntax.

    for example:

    Create the int2 smallint field;

    create domain id2 int2 default 0 not NULL; / * for the primary key * /.

    create domain rel2 int2 default 0 not NULL; / * foreign key * /.

    I tried a couple of approaches to achieve this "area" is:

    1. create synonym - cannot be used with the basic types;

    2. create the type - type of work, but the implementation is rather clumsy

    and can be costly in terms of performance.

    Is there something else to Oracle that can emulate the feature "domain"?

    Thanks in advence, I got really approciate any help on this.

    Alex.

    Your best approximation is CREATE TYPE, but their is nothing of what is a 100% adjustment.

    For example, if you create a domain with a check constraint you need to implement than separately on each table.

  • Working with date and time of the request for help from acrobat JavaScript...

    This coming from

    Working with date and time in Acrobat JavaScript (part 1 of 3)

    The following code adds five days to the current date, and then prints the new date in the console window.

    Get the date and time

    var rightNow = new Date();

    Get the value of millisecond

    Article date

    var msRightNow = rightNow.getTime ();

    Calculate in milliseconds, of 5 days

    5 days x 24 hours/day x 60 min / h x 60 s / min x 1000 ms/s

    Challenge of var = 5 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;

    Do the calculation of var CFAbsoluteTime = msRightNow + challenge;

    Create a new Date from the calculated value

    var theNewDate = new Date (finalTime);

    In the actual work on a form code, you'll want to place the

    the object of a field value. But since this is test code, we will

    Print the result to the Console window (great for debugging)

    Console.println ("5 days from now is:" + theNewDate.toString ());

    The foregoing is the exact code (cut and paste)

    The error I get here is;

    ReferenceError: theNewDate is not defined

    1:Console:exec

    undefined

    To get the "undefined" question a lot... it seems to me, learn to distinguish the undefined 'of type' undefined 'variable' and undefined 'value '.

    in this case 'theNewDate' seems to be defined as a variable equal to the current date plus 5 days... BUT I am now "educated" enough to 'see' Why am I getting the error...


    Any thoughts... Any who...

    You need to highlight all the text that you want to run.

    You have not set the rightNow variable before you can apply a method to the variable.

    You can just add a new variable as msRightNow name. Why not use rightNow.

    Executes the code that you provided with a new departure of Acrobat, I get the following error messages:

    rightNow.getTime is not a function

    1:Console:exec

    TypeError: rightNow.getTime is not a function

    1:Console:exec

    undefined

    What you are showing probably works because your previous attempts have left behind them a variable "rightNow" and as long as you do not have the object of time date change too much, you will not notice the error.

    Cleaning of your code:

    get the number of milliseconds of the date object.

    rightNow var = (new Date()) .getTime ();

    define 5 days in milliseconds;
    Challenge of var = 5 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;

    Add 5 days to the value of this moment and assign the result to the last time;
    var CFAbsoluteTime = rightNow + challenge;

    convert finalTime value in a date object.
    var theNewDate = new Date (finalTime);

    display the result;
    Console.println ("5 days from now is:" + theNewDate.toString ());

    Have you tried the code that I provided, it is another way to add days to the date object.

  • Working with XML and button

    Hello

    How are you all. Well, I'm new to Flex. But I started to build simple applications. One of the best most problem I face in working with XML and the button. Can you please help me in this. I explain my problem:

    I have an external XML file like this:
    < menu >
    < button >
    < idnt > 0 < / idnt >
    General Health < label > < / label >
    pages of < text > general health is currently under construction < / text >
    < / button >
    < button >
    < idnt > 1 < / idnt >
    < label > mental health < / label >
    pages of < text > mental health is currently under construction < / text >
    < / button >
    < / menu >

    Now, I want to generate dynamically buttons from this XML file. And the second thing that is the most problematic is that how I code so that when I press the button marked 'General health', it will display the same text as in the XML corresponding to the tag tag "< label > General Health < / label >?
    I seriously need it. I'm really confused on this. Kindly help me.
