Scripting in InCopy

Scripting is a great tool for performing a variety of tasks. A script can be as simple as an automated common task or as
complex as an entire new feature. You can create your own scripts, and you can run scripts that other people have
created. Use the Scripts panel (Window > Utilities > Scripts) to run scripts within InCopy.

For more information about scripting, see the InCopy Scripting Guide on the Adobe website.

Save documents

Do one of the following:

• To save an existing document under the same name, choose File > Save Content.

• To save a document under a new name, choose File > Save Content As, specify a location and filename, and click

Save. The newly named document becomes the active document.

• To save a copy of a story or graphic under a new document name, choose File > Save Content Copy, specify a

location and filename, and click Save. The saved copy does not become the active document.

• To save a copy of a document as a template, choose File > Save Content As, specify a location and filename, and

then choose InCopy Template from Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Mac OS).

• To save all stories in the document, choose File > Save All Content.

• To save a copy of a document in a text format, choose File > Save Content As, specify a location and filename,

and then choose Text Only or Rich Text Format from Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Mac OS).

Note: Saving a managed (linked) document does not update the link in the InDesign file. To update the story on the file
system, follow the process described in your workflow system documentation or ask your system administrator for
information.

Include previews in saved documents

Thumbnail previews of documents and templates provide easy identification of those files in Adobe Bridge and Adobe
Mini Bridge. A preview is created when you save a document or template. A document preview includes a JPEG image
of only the first spread; a template preview includes a JPEG image of each page in the template. You can control the size
of the preview and the number of pages to suit your needs. For example, Extra Large 1024x1024 enables you to quickly
scan the contents of a page at high-resolution before you open the file.
