You can assign items to a page using the GEOMETRY element, which is a child of the
BOX and TABLE elements. For example:
<BOX BOXTYPE="CT_TEXT" COLOR="White">
<ID NAME="Title Box" />
<GEOMETRY LAYER="Default" PAGE="1" SHAPE="SH_RECT">
<POSITION>
<TOP>90</TOP>
<LEFT>95</LEFT>
<BOTTOM>190</BOTTOM>
<RIGHT>195</RIGHT>
</POSITION>
</GEOMETRY>
</BOX>
Master pages are stored in a deconstructed project’s Job Jackets file. To create a page
from this master page, insert a MASTER attribute into the PAGE element and indicate
the number of the target master page. Master page numbering is as follows:
1 = blank single page
2 = blank facing-page
3 = the first user-defined master page in the Job Jackets file (by default, the master
page named "A-Master A")
For example, to create a master page based on the first user-defined master page in the
Job Jackets file, you could use XML like the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<PROJECT JOBJACKET=" file://brochures/BrochureJJ.xml"
JOBTICKET="Tall US Brochure Ticket"
PROJECTNAME="project1.qxp">
<LAYOUT>
<ID NAME="Layout 1"/>
<SPREAD>
<ID UID="1" />
<PAGE MASTER="3" POSITION="LEFTOFSPINE">
<ID UID="2" />
</PAGE>
...
Note that each page has a POSITION attribute that indicates where that page falls with
regard to the spine.
Working with layouts
QuarkXPress Server lets you create layouts from scratch in several ways:
• You can create a layout using the default layout properties, as specified in the server
Job Jackets file.
• You can create a layout using a layout specification in a template's Job Jackets structure.
• You can create a layout using a specific height and width.
To create a layout using the server Job Jackets file's default settings, use XML like the
following:
<PROJECT>
<LAYOUT OPERATION="CREATE">
<ID NAME="New Layout"/>
<SPREAD>
<ID UID="1"/>
<BOX>
<ID NAME="Box5"/>
<TEXT>
<STORY>
<PARAGRAPH PARASTYLE="Normal">
<RICHTEXT>Scrollable Layout</RICHTEXT>
</PARAGRAPH>
