      I am currently running a project to change a magazine publisher from a Quark platform to an InDesign and InCopy workflow. One problem that keeps occuring is that when an editor manually alters the paragraph style to make the copy fit in InCopy, (ie, altering the tracking and/or leading), this change does not show when the same file is opened in InDesign.

      For example, a heading that an editor has reduced tracking -5% to make fit into one line in the InCopy file, will still look like two lines when the InDesign file is opened. This is particularly dangerous for pages of text, as we keep losing lines from the bottom of the page and this can be easy to miss during output for press.

      Is this happening to anyone else? And is there a fix for it? The only one I can think of is to add more paragraph styles with different trackings etc, but this is not ideal and does not cover all the variables.

      We are using CS4, and the Snow Leopard platform – Please help!
