My marketing team has been using InDesign and InCopy on our local network for a number of years with great success. Our firm has recently rolled out OneDrive as part of Office365 and we’ve been experimenting with it for remote workers. Of course we’ve been seeing things that we’ve never experienced before:
1. The InDesign lock file doesn’t work meaning 2 people can open and edit the file. We’ve been able to manage this ok with good communication.
2. The InCopy files are not showing as ‘checked out’ so this too can be edited by multiple people. The first time we tried InCopy on ONeDrive, it did seem that the ‘check out’ feature did work. Now it doesn’t. it also doesn’t show that the file is out of date, etc.
Obviously, the 2nd issue is really problematic. Are we missing something?
Does anyone have any experience working similarly with Dropbox or other cloud-based storage?
