Can’t edit text in InCopy

#1 (**permalink**) 10-24-2008, 07:46 AM

A document created in InDesign CS3 on a Mac is supposed to be edited in InCopy CS3 on a PC by a colleague. She can enter the textbox and move the cursor with the arrows in the text, but she can’t change or delete text. Has anyone a clue about why this happens?

Did you export the story as InCopy content?

Hi Bob. How do I do that?

The solution was to install the Cross Talk plug-in:

That plugin could be useful in some situations, but since it's not the normal InCopy/InDesign workflow; you lose a lot of the features.

Nonetheless I'm happy you found a solution!
