• To let InCopy attempt to resolve missing links, choose Utilities > Search For Missing Links from the Links panel

Specify a default Relink folder
1 In the Preferences dialog box, select File Handling.
2 From the Default Relink Folder menu, choose either of the following options, and then click OK:
Most Recent Relink Folder This option displays the most recently used folder you selected when relinking,
matching InCopy CS3 behavior.
Original Link Folder This option displays the original location of the linked file, matching the behavior of InCopy
CS2 and earlier.
Copy links to a different folder
Use the Copy Link(s) To command to copy graphics files to a different folder and redirect the links to the copied files.
This command is especially useful for moving files to a different drive, such as moving files from a DVD to a hard drive.
1 Select the links to the files you want to copy, and choose Utilities > Copy Link(s) To from the Links panel menu.
2 Specify the folder where the linked files will be copied and choose Select (Windows) or Choose (Mac OS).
Relink to a different folder
When you use the Relink To Folder command, you can point to a folder that contains files with the same names as your
out-of-date links. For example, if your current links point to low-resolution images, you can specify a different folder
that contains high-resolution images. You can specify a different extension for the files, allowing you to change links
from .jpg to .tiff, for example.
The Relink To Folder command is dimmed in a managed InCopy story unless the story is checked out.
1 Select one or more links in the Links panel.
2 Choose Relink To Folder from the Links panel menu.
3 Specify the location of the new folder.
4 To use a different extension, select Match Same Filename But This Extension, and specify the new extension (such
as AI, TIFF, or PSD).
5 Click Select (Windows) or Choose (Mac OS).
Relink files with different file extensions
The Relink File Extension command lets you replace images based on file extensions. For example, if you have several
JPEG images in your document, you can replace them with PSD files. The files with different extensions must be in the
same folder as the linked files being replaced.
1 Make sure the files with different file extensions appear in the same folder as the original files.
2 Select one or more links in the Links panel.
3 Choose Relink File Extensions from the Links panel menu.
4 Specify the file extension to replace the selected files, and click Relink.
