Check in versions

Note: You can perform this task only if you have access to the full Version Cue feature set. See Accessing Version Cue features.

To check in a new version of a file, use the Check In or Save A Version (Acrobat) command, which saves your changes to the Version Cue Server and removes the Checked Out or In Use By (Acrobat) status from the file.

When you check in a version, Version Cue transfers and saves only the changes you’ve made to the file.

You can check in versions of non-Adobe files only if the files are in a Version Cue project and the files have been opened through Bridge. After you check in versions of non-Adobe files, you can access them from the Versions dialog box in Version Cue-enabled Creative Suite components and from the Inspector or Content panel in Bridge.

Note: You can save versions of nonembedded graphics, image, and text files in InCopy, InDesign, and Illustrator by using the Edit Original command in the Links panel. After editing the file, save it in its native application. Then, in the Links panel, select the file and use the Save Link Version command to check in a version in the Version Cue project. For more information, see InCopy Help, InDesign Help, or Illustrator Help.
