User Guide

The link between InCopy files and InDesign layouts is made in InDesign, by placing an InCopy (.incx) file into an

InDesign layout. For information about how this process works in your workgroup, talk to your system adminis-

trator. If your workflow uses the Assignments feature or the InCopy LiveEdit Workflow plug-ins, see “About

managed files” on page 124.
