Is there a way to make text wrap around an anchored object in Incopy? Our Incopy users need to be able to place anchored objects (icons in this case), but those icons need text to wrap around them. I was hoping Incopy users could set up "custom" positions using the "Anchored Object Options" but apparently that's not available to Incopy users.

Hi Judy, you can't do this on your own in InCopy, but if you start with an (InDesign-generated) story that has an anchored object that's already wrapping, then in IC you can copy and paste it elsewhere in the story, and use the Position tool to replace its image. The wrap will still hold.

So perhaps your designers could set up a placeholder image frame anchored inside some FPO text? The frame doesn't need to have an image. After the designer exports the story to INCX, an IC user could open it and save it as a template (INCT).

Great idea. I'll try this. Thanks, Anne-Marie.
