Copy the link pathname
You can copy either the full path of the linked image or the platform style path. Copying the full path of the image is
useful for notifying team members where art is located. For example, you can copy the full path and paste it into an
email message. Copying the platform path is useful for scripting or for specifying image fields in a data merge.
1 Select a link in the Links panel.
2 From the Links panel menu, choose Copy Info > Copy Full Path or Copy Platform Style Path.
3 Paste the path.
Edit original artwork
The Edit Original command lets you open most graphics in the application in which you created them so that you can
modify them as necessary. Once you save the original file, the document in which you linked it is updated with the new
version.
Note: In InDesign, if you check out and select a managed graphics frame (one that has been exported to InCopy), rather
than the graphic itself, the graphic opens in InCopy.
Edit original artwork using the default application
By default, InCopy relies on the operating system to determine which application is used when opening the original.
1 Select one or more images on the page or in the Links panel.
2 Do any of the following:
• In the Links panel, click the Edit Original button .
• Choose Edit > Edit Original.
3 After making changes in the original application, save the file.
Edit original artwork using a different application
1 Select the image.
2 Choose Edit > Edit With, and then specify the application you want to use to open the file. If the application does
not appear, choose Other, and browse to locate the application.
