Hi,

We currently use InDesign and are evaluating InCopy for post-design proofing by the editors. But have a a practical problem with this process:

A two-page article, for example, will have 6 elements (heading, main text, tables, box stories, captions, etc). Longer features will have considerably more.

But when we export the article from InDesign it creates a file for each element. So when it comes to the editor proofing the article he has to check out each element in turn, before turning tracking changes on for all elements and then making changes.

Is there a way to check out all elements in an article in one click and then turn on track changes for all elements?

I appreciate any help as this significantly erodes any productivity saving that InCopy offers to us.

Many thanks,
Peter Watkinson
