Highlighting text in rendered output
To apply highlighting to text in rendered output, use XML like the following.
<RICHTEXT BACKGROUNDCOLOR="Yellow">This text is highlighted.</RICHTEXT>
Highlighting is applied only to rendered output. It is not retained in the QuarkXPress
project.
Using XML modify
The modify parameter lets you modify a QuarkXPress project using XML.
This topic covers the modify parameter when it is used without the construct
namespace. You can also use the modify parameter to specify an XML file to use when
constructing a project; for more information, see "Constructing a project".
The xml namespace takes two arguments: the name of the project to be modified, and
a modify parameter with the string or the path of the XML file that describes how to
create the project:
http://QXPServer8:8080/project1.qxp?modify=
file:path to XML file on server http://QXPServer8:8080/
project1.qxp?modify=XML string
You can also modify QuarkCopyDesk articles. To modify a QuarkCopyDesk article:
http://localhost:8080/copydesk/abc.qcd?modify=
file:XMLfile.xml
Modifier DTDDTD
Lets you specify an XML file or string that describes how to create
a project. The path can be absolute or a relative path in the
document pool. Use the file: indicator to specify the path.

If the request succeeds, a transaction success message is written to the QuarkXPress Server
transaction log file. For example:
