As of version 8.0, the QuarkXPress Server XDK is Unicode-compliant.
The QuarkXPress Server XDK lets you create XTensions modules that provide the following
abilities:
• The ability to register request handlers
• The ability to register project providers
• The ability to register new render formats
• The ability to add items to the list of response properties, cookies, and HTTP header items
• The ability to log messages in log files and in the status monitor
• The ability to initiate a new transaction to be processed by the server
• The ability to completely control how projects are processed by the server
In addition, QuarkXPress Server XTensions software can register for the following basic
callbacks:
• Pre-processing
• Content loading
• Layout modification
• Post-processing
• Removing slugs while running the QuarkXPress project renderer
• Analyzing the server after a transaction is complete
• Pre- and post-transaction callback
Launching QuarkXPress Server
QuarkXPress Server consists of a single executable that can be executed in two modes.
Both modes are available on Mac OS and Windows.
• When executed in console mode, QuarkXPress Server displays a limited user interface for
configuring the server. To access QuarkXPress Server in console mode, double-click the
program icon.
• When executed in no-UI mode, QuarkXPress Server displays no visible user interface and
must be controlled (started and stopped) from a command prompt. Running
QuarkXPress Server in no-UI mode will slightly improve its performance.
To control which mode QuarkXPress Server launches in, edit the "QuarkXPress Server.config"
file, which is located at the root level of the QuarkXPress Server application folder. This
file supports the following options:
