Creating XML for Modifier XTensions software

All XML used with Modifier XTensions software uses the Modifier DTD. This DTD is

documented in full in the QuarkXPress Server Web Integration Guide.

In general, the structure for addressing items in a particular layout is as follows:

<[Item being addressed]>

<[Parameters of item]>

</[Item being addressed]>

</LAYOUT>

</PROJECT>

For more information, see the QuarkXPress Server Web Integration Guide.

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." For information about

the parameters for this feature, see the QuarkXPress Server Web Integration Guide.

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]"
