Layer XTensions software
You can use QuarkXPress Server Layer XTensions software to control the visibility of
specific layers in a rendered QuarkXPress project. You can also add layers, delete layers,
edit layer attributes, and control whether layers are rendered.
When you use the getdocinfo namespace, QuarkXPress Server returns information
about items on all of the layers in the QuarkXPress project, including layers that are
not visible.
Clients can use the layer parameter to specify a layer (even a hidden layer) to be
rendered. For example, the URL http://QXPServer:8080/doc.qxp?layer=layer1
renders only the layer named "layer1" in the project named "doc.qxp."
Clients can specify more than one layer in a single URL. For example, the URL
http://QXPServer:8080/doc.qxp?layer=layer1,layer2 renders the layers
named "layer1" and "layer2."
For information about layer preferences, see "Preferences Layers."
If Suppress Output is selected for a layer, QuarkXPress Server does not render that
layer when producing PDF, EPS, or PostScript files.
InteractiveDesigner Server XTensions software
InteractiveDesigner XTensions software allows QuarkXPress Server to render both Print
and Interactive layouts in QuarkXPress projects as SWF (Flash) files. If you render a
Print layout as an SWF file, you can use the right and left arrow keys to navigate
between pages in the SWF file.
To render an Interactive layout in a QuarkXPress project as a SWF file when SWF is
not the QuarkXPress Server default render type, use the SWF namespace, as follows:
http://[server]:[port]/swf/[projectname]?layout="[layoutname]"
For information about the parameters for exporting in this format, see "Using
QuarkXPress Server."
App Studio XTensions software
The App Studio XTensions modules allow QuarkXPress Server to render Print and App
Studio layouts in QuarkXPress projects as AVE issue files.
In QuarkXPress 9.5.1.1, an option was added to allow the App Studio output to convert
sections to page stacks. A new URL parameter convertsectionstopagestacks has
been added to provide this ability.
