Open assignment packages
The assignment packages workflow is especially useful when designers and writers are working on the same project but
don’t have access to a local server. In such cases, the InDesign user can create one or more packages and send the
compressed files to the assigned InCopy users via e-mail. InCopy users can open the assignment packages, edit the
contents, and return the packages to the InDesign user, who can then update the document.
Open linked InCopy files exported from InDesign
In certain workflows, InDesign users might export text and graphics as separate files, rather than wrapping them inside
an assignment file. Exporting separate files is useful if you work on unrelated graphics or bodies of text. However,
InCopy users aren’t able to see how the content fits within the InDesign layout.
