Viewing and managing file versions

After opening a file from a Version Cue workspace, you can quickly access the file's
previous version thumbnails, version comments, and version dates using the Versions
dialog box. You can work with an earlier version by making a copy of it to become your
current version. You can also delete earlier versions to recover hard-disk space or simplify
your workflows.

The Versions dialog box displays a thumbnail, comments, and a date for each file version.

Note: When you open a file version that is earlier than the current version, the document
that opens is a temporary file. If desired, you can save the open document to a new file, a
different Version Cue project, or a different folder in the Version Cue project, or you can
use the Versions dialog box to add a new file version based upon the earlier version.

To view a file's versions:

1. In Acrobat Professional 7.0, Illustrator CS, InCopy CS, InDesign CS, or Photoshop CS,

choose File > Open.

2. Click the Version Cue button
