Layout estimates while you edit
Page previews show how each chapter is likely to fall on the page, labelled as fit estimates with their calibration date. Overflow is raised as an issue against the block that causes it.
Page proofs and InDesign export
From manuscript to InDesign without retyping a page
CoPressAI keeps layout in view while you write, then hands your designer a clean InDesign file. The final proof is produced and checked by your designer in InDesign.
A layout library for textbooks and workbooks
Choose from reusable layouts for each segment type, such as chapter openers, worked examples, practice pages and reviews. Start with the platform’s default layouts or add your own InDesign templates.
IDML export to your templates
Approved chapters export as IDML with styles mapped to your templates, so your designer opens a structured InDesign document rather than pasting text from a word processor.
- Paragraph and character styles mapped to your template
- Linked images and diagrams packaged with the export
- Proof PDF and preflight report returned and attached to the release
Locked, versioned releases
When the chief editor approves, the release is locked with a manifest of the exact revisions and proofs it contains. Any later edit starts a new edition rather than changing an approved book.
CoPressAI is in its pilot phase with selected publishers. Features are released to pilot workspaces in stages; your demo shows exactly what is available today.
Questions
Questions about page proofs and indesign export
Do we need InDesign Server?
No. During the pilot, final proofs are made on your designer’s normal licensed copy of InDesign. Server automation can come later.
Can we use our existing InDesign templates?
Yes. Publisher templates are added to the layout library through an onboarding step, and the platform’s default layouts are available from day one.
