InCopy CS6 Compatibility

Will our editors InCopy CS6 work with my InDesign CS5.5?

Designers are working in InDesign 5.5 and would be making assignments for the editors. The editors are working in InCopy 6. Just wanted to make sure we didn't need to upgrade to InDesign 6 to be to be able to work together properly.

Indesign cc and incopy cs6 - compatibility

if i update to indesign cc, will i still have full compatibility with existing incopy cs6 editors/users?

Ah right, yes, good point. We never use that method, only assignments. I Guess an INDD file would be another story indeed! Will test. But hey, never open an INDD, to big, use assigments always! ;-)

Can my users continue editing in InCopy CS6 while I move to InDesign CC?

My company has moved to CC but the marketing team is sorely behind the curve and out of my jurisdiction and budget. My group is in CC, but the marketing coming late to the table has now requested to edit all the files in InCopy. That is great, but they only have CS6. I have tried this experiment on my system and it works, they claim it does not, I would love some proof from the community of which is right, is it that in my unique space-time continuum that assignments created in CC and opened in CS6 work, or is it really that there is some majore OE happening in the marketing dept. ?

See some prior threads:
Would InCopy CC work with InDesign CS6?
indesign cc and incopy cs6 - compatibility
I think the general conclusion is it probably works if BOTH (a) your workflow does not involve opening .INDD layouts in InCopy and (b) you don't make use of any CC features. But no one's going to offer you a guarantee.

InCopy CS6 "Cannot Open File" from InDesign CC

I'm trying to review copy recently posted by my designer. I'm using InCopy CS6 and she recently upgraded to InDesign CC. We never had a problem before, but now I'm getting the following error:
I'm running Windows 8 and she's on a Mac (not sure which OS).
Any thoughts?

For real? I can't believe that the latest version of the standalone InCopy can't play with InDesign CC. My designer is a contractor and just spent a lot of money to upgrade to CC, and my employer didn't want to pay for all of CC, so they just got me Incopy CS6.

Packaging files in InCopy CS6

I have just installed InCopy CS6, and received an assignment from our designer, who created the document in InDesign CS5. I have successfully opened and edited the document, but the option to package (in any format - to Return for InDesign or Forward for InCopy) cannot be selected (greyed out). Any suggestions as to why this might be?
Thanks in advance!

Here’s how it works.
The only way you can package for InDesign is if you are working on a package you received from an InDesign user. Likewise, the only way to forward a package to an InCopy user if you received an InDesign or InCopy package.
InCopy cannot be the beginning the step for a remote workflow.
The package (INCP) is the assignment but in it’s own wrapper.

Will InDesign CC be compatible with InCopy CS6

Will it be possible to combining InDesign CC and InCopy CS6 in a workgroup?

Not really. Different version of ID and IC have never been 100% compatible and this is no exception.
But keep in mind that InCopy CC will be a part of Creative Cloud also and will be available as a single app subscription as well.

InDesign CS5 and inCopy CS6 workflow problem

I've looked at other discussions and haven't found any to answer the question to our problem.
We are a small publishing company and we have license for roughly 7 inDesign CS5 copies that we purchased a year ago. We contract with outside editors to edit content for us using inCopy. For a year there hasn't been any problems. But any new contracted editor we now sign, which in turn purchases inCopy, we are having trouble with our files talking to one another. Any new contracted editors are only able to purchase CS6 inCopy. This leaves us with the problem of having inDesign CS5 on about 7 or so of our employees machines and 6-8 CS 5.5 InCopy on outside contracted editors and an additional 3-4 contracted editors with CS6 inCopy. When the editors with CS6 inCopy try to open files from our InDesign CS5, either they won’t open at all, or they will open, the editor works on the project for awhile, their program crashes and they are not able to recover (re-open) the files again. Which results in hours of lost work.
Has anyone else come across this problem? Is there a work around or a quick fix. We would hate to have to upgrade to CS6 for all of our in house copies of InDesign and then ask our outside editors what do have inCopy cs5.5 to upgrade to CS6.
If this is the case, when CS7 comes out, and we hire additional outside editors, will we continuously have to go through the process of upgrades again? This is too costly for use and our existing contracted editors.
Any thoughts are assistance would be appreciated.
This is one of the error messages received from an outside contracted editor using inCopy CS6. The file crashed after several hours of work, when the editor went to reopen the file, they received this error. Which looks to be a generic error code that doesn't tell us anything.

Hi Ruffus,
Unfortunately different versions of InDesign and InCopy do not work well with each other. Newer versions of the program should be able to open older files, but they cannot save backwards. I am not sure what is causing the errors with the newer versions of InCopy however.
Are you able to open the CS6 InCopy files on your computers?

InCopy CS6 and InDesign CS6 workflow

Hi there, I just started a 3 day per week job at an architecture firm. They have about 35 staff, and use Word to format some pretty hefty reports. They are in one column, rather ugly and doesn’t reflect at all the professionalism of the firm.
I’m looking at trying to integrate the workflow, so that they can maybe use InCopy and InDesign together, effectively replacing Word for report use. I’m only in 3 days so it’s impossible for me to use a Word > InDesign workflow with the amount of changes (mostly last minute and to tight deadlines). It just takes too long. The architects and historians need to be able to write these reports themselves, with my skills coming in when it's the final format ready to send to the client.
We have licences for about 5 copies of InDesign CS5 at the moment, and 35 licenses for Word, so we’re looking at the costings and if the InCopy to InDesign workflow would work well for much of the communication here. The report writers use hundreds of images/diagrams in each document, and all these have captions, so I guess it’s important to use an inline compatible design where the users can add images in InCopy and these are brought over to InDesign without too much fiddling around at the end.
The aim is to have the report writers use a collaborative system, but using corporate open type fonts that display well on screen. We are using Trade Gothic, and it doesn't represent on screen very well at all. The report writers hate using it, especially as their zoom size in Word is normally around 90%.. The other problem is the lack of layout optiions with Word. The reports could save hundreds of pages just by using a 2 column system which can save rivers of blank white space within text.
Also we need the ability for the writers to be able to add images and resize/rotate landscape portait format etc.
I’ve downloaded a trial version of InDesign CS6 and InCopy CS6 so am just checking things out and testing it at the moment.

Using Dropbox for InCopy/InDesign workflows works really well. You keep all your projects in Dropbox as though it was a networked, local server.
I will be doing an hour-long session at PePcon (the Print + ePublishing Conference) on "The state of the state" of open source or low cost editorial workflows, covering InCopy, Word, GoogleDocs, and InDesign plug-ins. Really great conference to go to if you're using InDesign for publishing. (note: I'm a co-host, too.)

Is InCopy CS6 compatible with InDesign CS5.5?

Hello,
We recently upgraded our production team to CS Design Standard 5.5, however, we now need a handful of copies of InCopy for our editors...
Just wanted to make sure that InCopy CS6 and InDesign CS5.5 were playing nice with each other before making the purchase.
Thanks in advance.

I would test it very thoroughly by downloading the trial versions. I would imagine text flow will be a bit different and packaging certainly won’t work.
BTW, what does recently mean? Any purchase of 5.5 after March 26 would entitle you to a free upgrade to CS6.

Download Assistant does NOT have InCopy CS6 Trial

I want to download the trial for InCopy CS6. I went to the free 30-day trial page FOR InCopyCS6, and clicked download. The download assistant downloaded onto my computer, I set up a login, and the download assistant gives me options of things to download, but InCopy is not one of them.

Hi LynnBBlack,
After Adobe Download Assistant is installed, you can start it at any time and select a product to download at the bottom of the window. The list updates as new products become available to download with the Adobe Download Assistant.
Please refer : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/download-assistant-faq.html#main_How_do_ I_download_a_trial_version_of_Creative_Suite_or_Elements_software_
Alternatively you can try downloading it from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

How can I download InCopy CS6 trial version in the Adobe Download Assistant?

There's no selection of the application for InCopy CS6 trial version in the Adobe Download Assistant.

That is correct. Once the Adobe Download Assistant is installed you will need to initiate the download from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=incopy&loc=en_us. If this is not working for you then please utilize a different web browser.

Will InCopy CS6 work with InDesign CS5.5?

Hi folks - I need to use InDesign CS5.5 due to a customer's requirement. I need to use InCopy to delegate copy editing. Looks like the lowest version of InCopy I can get is InCopy CS6. Will InCopy CS6 play nice with InDesign CS5.5?
Thanks in advance.

bahhh
Cheers for your reply though. Is there any way of getting InCopy CS5.5 these days?
