BoxParam XTensions software lets you import only files in the document pool. Modifier XTensions
software, however, lets you import files located anywhere on the server computer or any accessible
network location.
Notes
Exporting Job Jackets files during deconstruction
While using the xml namespace to deconstruct a QuarkXPress project, you can specify the
jjname parameter in the same request to output the Job Jackets file to the document pool.
For example:
http://localhost:8080/xml/project.qxp?jjname=jjfilename.xml
You can then use the construct namespace to create new QuarkXPress projects that are
based on that Job Jackets file's resources and layout specifications.
The jjname parameter exports QuarkXPress project resources and layout specifications to
a Job Ticket. Resources defined at the Job Jackets level are not exported to the Job Ticket.
Using XML deconstruct and construct
The xml namespace deconstructs a project according to the Modifier DTD. The construct
namespace lets you turn an XML representation of a QuarkXPress project back into a
QuarkXPress project.
This means you can deconstruct a project into an XML representation, change the XML
in accordance with the Modifier DTD, and then have the server generate an updated
version of the QuarkXPress project. You can even create new QuarkXPress projects from
scratch using XML.
In addition, you can use the construct namespace to:
• Create a page based on a master page
• Create a project from XML, using a Job Jackets file as the basis for the project
• Modify text font and style, including OpenType styles
• Apply style sheets and local formatting to text
• Create and populate tables
• Import pictures into picture boxes and specify picture attributes
The DTD used for XML construction and deconstruction is completely Unicode-compliant,
making it ideal for use in international publishing. Furthermore, the use of this DTD
ensures that the schema of XML output created by Constructor does not change when
server preferences change. For more information, see "Modifier DTD (annotated)."
