ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS2
User Guide
In Version Cue CS2, if you intend to work on a file offline, you can manually mark the file In Use before you take
your work offline. When you mark a file In Use, Version Cue creates a working copy of the file for you. (You can mark
a file In Use even if you don’t intend to work offline.) Typically, when you’re editing a file, In Use appears when other
users access a file. When a file’s status is In Use, Version Cue protects the file. When you synchronize your file, the
status of the file returns to Synchronized. Mark In Use is not available in Acrobat 7.
If you have edited an offline file recently, you can open it from the File > Open Recent menu.
