You can export InCopy documents directly to Adobe PDF. You can export in the Galley, Story, or Layout view. If you export in Layout view, the result is a PDF document with layout and design elements intact. In contrast, a document exported in Galley or Story view resembles the text-only look that you see in Galley or Story view within InCopy. You might want to export the Galley or Story view of an InCopy story to PDF for writers, editors, and others in a document-review cycle who may not have InCopy on their computers. The PDF document has the same advantages that an InCopy Galley and Story view offers, including maximum text readability and annotation features.

Adobe PDF files exported from Adobe InDesign® documents that contain overprints or transparency effects are best viewed in Acrobat 6.0 and later with the Overprint Preview option selected.
Piezīme.
When exporting to PDF, InCopy preserves links from Open Prepress Interface (OPI) comments for images in the InDesign document. OPI links let the InDesign user include fast, low-resolution versions (proxies) of images for positioning on a page. For final output, either InDesign or a prepress service provider can automatically replace the proxies with high-resolution versions.
There are several options that are common to the Galley, Story, and Layout views when exporting a document to PDF.
Compatibility
Sets the compatibility level of the Adobe PDF file. For documents that will be distributed widely, consider choosing Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4) to ensure that all users can view and print the document. If you create files with Acrobat 8/9 (PDF 1.7) compatibility, the resulting PDF files may not be compatible with earlier versions of Acrobat.
Subset Fonts When Percent Of Characters Used Is Less Than
Sets the threshold for embedding complete fonts based on how many of the fonts’ characters are used in the document. If the percentage of characters used in the document for any given font is exceeded, then that specific font is completely embedded. Otherwise, the font is subsetted. Embedding complete fonts increases PDF file size, but if you want to make sure you completely embed all fonts, enter 0 (zero).
Include Page Information
Includes the document name, page number, and date and time the file was exported.
View PDF After Exporting
Opens the PDF file in the latest version of Acrobat currently installed on your computer. For accurate results, make sure that the compatibility option matches the latest version of Acrobat installed.
Fonts
Includes settings for font family and style, type size, and leading for the exported file. These settings do not change the screen view settings in the Galley & Story Display preferences.
Include Story Information
The document title, author, and description appear in the exported PDF file.
Include Paragraph Styles
Paragraph style information from the information column shown in Galley and Story views appears in the exported PDF file.
Include Inline Notes
Exports all (or only visible) inline notes contained in the document. To include the note colors assigned to individuals on the project, select Show Notes Backgrounds In Color.
Include Tracked Changes
Exports all (or only visible) tracked changes contained in the document. To include the editing colors assigned to individuals on the project, select Show Tracked Changes Backgrounds In Color.
Include Accurate Line Endings
Exports line endings as they appear in the story. If unchecked, the lines of text wrap according to the width and orientation of the widest story window.
Include Line Numbers
Exports with line numbers displayed in the information column. This option is available only if Include Accurate Line Endings is selected.
Fill Page (Use Multiple Columns)
Exports the story using the number and width of columns you specify. This option is available only if Include Accurate Line Endings is selected.
Piezīme.
Selecting a small column width and a large font size (in the Fonts section of this section) can cause text to overlap in the exported output.
Range
Specifies the range of pages to export in the current document. You can type a range by using a hyphen, and separate multiple pages or ranges by using commas. This option is unavailable when you’re exporting books.
Piezīme.
Do not select Spreads for commercial printing; if you do, the service provider cannot impose the pages.
Interactive Elements
Choose Include Appearance to include items such as buttons and movie posters in the PDF.
Optimize For Fast Web View
Reduces PDF file size, and optimizes the PDF file for faster viewing in a web browser by restructuring the file for page-at-a-time downloading (byte serving).
You can restrict access to an Adobe PDF file when you export it. When files use security restrictions, any tools and menu items related to those features are dimmed.
You can secure a PDF file so that a user password is required to open it and a master password is required to change security settings. If you set any security restrictions in your file, you should also specify a master password; otherwise, anyone who opens the file could remove the restrictions. If a file is opened with a master password, the security restrictions are temporarily disabled. If the file has both passwords, you can open it with either one.

The Compatibility setting determines the encryption level. The Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3) option uses a low encryption level (40-bit RC4), while the other options use a high encryption level (128-bit RC4 or AES).
