I don't think it's possible to create Assignment files (.inca) with low res previews of placed images ... at least that's what an IC engineer told me a couple months ago. I would *love* to learn differently.

Here's what he said ... unlike ID files, Assignments are xml files and don't contain binary image data. If the Assignment file can't find the links to the images originally placed in the layout ... iow if the Links palette in IC shows "missing images" stop signs .. then all you see is a gray box instead of a low res preview.

In contrast, an IC user can open up an .indd InDesign layout file, and if links are broken, they'll still see low-res proxies of the images.

I submitted "include binary image data in Assignments" as a feature request for IC 4. ;-)
