The INCT file extension is associated with Adobe InCopy, a word processor distributed as part of Adobe InDesign desktop publishing software for Windows and Apple macOS.
An INCT file contains an InCopy template. It is used as a basis for new documents so that recurring text, formatting, and document settings do not have to be created from scratch.
Adobe InCopy is a professional writing and editing application for editorial workflows and integration with Adobe InDesign. InCopy templates are intended to be used within InCopy and may also form part of workflows that exchange content with Adobe InDesign.
Open an INCT file with Adobe InCopy on Windows or macOS. InCopy uses the template as the basis for a new document rather than treating it as an ordinary text file.
INCT files are templates, so they are not normally converted to another format. Open the file in Adobe InCopy and create a document from it, then use InCopy's save or export options if the resulting content needs to be published in another supported format.
