InCopy is professional writing and copy-editing software for writers, editors, designers, publishers and editorial teams. InCopy writers can create and format text, track changes, add editorial notes and even make basic changes to the layout while the designer is continuing to work on the design in InDesign.
Adobe InCopy is ideal for managing the writing and editing of magazines, books, newspapers, reports and catalogs. It allows the text to be written and edited whilst the design is being created in InDesign. It is a managed workflow which allows users to track changes, add editorial notes and even make simple changes to the layout of the publication. Other page design software is available on GetintoWAY, including Adobe InDesign.
