Track changes
A valuable feature is the ability to track changes made to a story by each contributor in the writing and editing process. Whenever anyone adds,
deletes, or moves text within an existing story, the change is marked in the Story Editor in InDesign or the Galley and Story views in InCopy. You
can then accept or reject the changes.
Use the Track Changes panel in InDesign or the Track Changes toolbar in InCopy to turn Track Changes on or off and to show, hide, accept, or
reject changes made by contributors.
