Now in CS4 assuming I can use native Cross References Panel and preparing myself to relax and enjoy, I can’t even Copy-Paste the names of the References: I have to choose them from the long list of paragraphs of certain style. Anyway, the plug-in did its job, although for this huge book it often was a narrow squeak (InD worked too slowly. Every single reference has to be entered and managed manually. It worked, but I couldn’t do the x-referencing automatically.

I have the similar book of about 1200 pages (a telephone directory), and it is full of cross references like “See section BOOKSTORES at page 963”.įor CS3 version I have purchased the plug-in InXRef (Virginia Systems). )Ĭross-references cannot be transformed into XML in InDesign. When that same IC story is viewed in each ID file (or exported/output to PDF), the first paragraph takes on the formatting of how Headline is defined in its parent ID file, since the ID file calls the shots where style definitions are concerned.ĭoes that get you any closer? You might want to come up with a specific naming convention for these sorts of “shared” styles to help people understand what’s going on. It could even be a standalone IC file that someone has created a Headline style in. It makes no difference which of the 3 ID files it’s checked out from to apply the style.
Someone selects the first paragraph in the IC story and applies the Headline style to it. in the second ID file, Headline is italic green 12 pt., and in the third, Headline looks exactly the same as Subhead. In the first ID file, Headline is defined as bold red 24 pt. To have the same IC story appear with different formatting in 3 ID files, you use same-named styles in the “parent” ID file.įor example, each ID file has a paragraph style called Headline.
I do have some clients who are using InCopy just as you describe though. (You could synch just the raw text but not its formatting, for example.) QuarkXPress’s synchronized text feature does, though.
Bridget, unfortunately InCopy doesn’t allow for that level of granularity.
