I work for a magazine publishing company. I am using InDesign and my Editors use InCopy, both on Mac Platforms. I want to set up a template for the editors to use that has either two columns or three columns, depending on the story. However, when I look up columns in InCopy it always tells me to reference Tables. Well, I read that tables will not let my editors see the copy in galley view or story view (it only shows a table icon), but can only view it in layout view. That is not very effective for us. If the only way they view is a full page, without any breaks for column breaks, then copy fit does not work all that well. It sounds like a logical way to approach copy fit, and I'm sure Adobe didn't miss the boat...please tell me you have a solution.
