2 Edit the cross-reference, and then click OK.
Delete cross-references
When you delete a cross-reference, the source cross-reference is converted to text.
1 In the Cross-References section of the Hyperlinks panel, select the cross-reference or cross-references you want to
delete.
2 Click the Delete icon, or choose Delete Hyperlink/Cross-Reference from the panel menu.
3 Click Yes to confirm.
To completely remove a cross-reference, you can also select the cross-reference source and delete it.
Editing cross-reference source text
You can edit cross-reference source text. The advantage of editing cross-reference text is that you can change tracking
or word spacing as needed for copyfitting, or make other changes. The disadvantage is that if you update or relink the
cross-reference, any local formatting changes are removed.
Copyfitting text
Copyfitting text
InCopy keeps track of several text statistics and makes this data available in the Copyfit Info toolbar. As you write your
story, the Copyfit Info toolbar automatically displays the number of lines, words, and characters, and the vertical depth
at the bottom of the work area for both linked and stand-alone stories in Galley and Layout views.
Note: You can make the Copyfit Info toolbar a floating panel. (See Use toolbars .)
For linked InCopy documents or for stand-alone documents with a Depth setting, the Copyfit Progress Info box
indicates the precise amount by which a story is too long or too short. If the story doesn’t fill the frames assigned to it,
the copyfit box turns blue and displays a count. The length of the blue bar indicates roughly what percentage of the
frame is currently filled with text. The shorter the blue bar, the more text you need to add to fill the space.
If the text overflows the assigned frame space, a copyfit line indicates where overset text begins, and the Copyfit
Progress Info box turns red and displays the amount you need to cut to fit copy into the frame. (See
Editing overset
text .)
Note: The red bar is always the same length. It does not reflect any percentage of the space available.
