To avoid hierarchy conflicts between the placeholder hierarchy and the paragraph hierarchy,
the paragraph structure is flattened, which means that PARAGRAPH and RICHTEXT
elements become siblings. In this case, the PARACHAR attribute is not applied, and the
Modifier XML should include the &hardReturn; entity to represent paragraph break
characters.
The OWNER attribute of the TEXTPH and TEXTNODEPH elements refers to the ID of the
XTensions software that is responsible for the placeholder. The xml namespace returns all
placeholders from all XTensions software. The default value for placeholders is
“1347639377” (this is the XTension ID of PlaceholderSXT XT). If you want to create
placeholders for your own XTensions software, use that XTensions software ID here.
Working with metadata
You can attach box-level metadata to a QuarkXPress project created from XML using the
Modifier DTD. For example, if you import a picture from a content management system
into a box, you can store the unique ID of that picture (and other information, such as
the last-modified date) with the box containing that picture. When you deconstruct the
project, you can read the metadata (for example, to track the usage of licensed pictures).
You can attach metadata to picture boxes, text boxes, tables, lines, and text paths.
QuarkXPress Server metadata takes the form of key/value pairs. For more information, see
the Modifier DTD.
To create a new box with metadata, use XML like the following. In this example,
QuarkXPress Server creates a box named "box1" and asssociates Asset, Date, and Password
key-value pairs with it.
<BOX OPERATION="CREATE" BOXTYPE="CT_TEXT">
<ID NAME="box1"/>
<METADATA>
<VALUE KEY="Asset" ><![CDATA[1234567890]]>
</VALUE>
<VALUE KEY="Date" ><![CDATA[08.06.07]]>
</VALUE>
<VALUE KEY="Password" ><![CDATA[Hello World]]>
</VALUE>
</METADATA>
<GEOMETRY SHAPE="SH_RECT" PAGE="1">
<POSITION>
<TOP>5</TOP>
<LEFT>5</LEFT>
<BOTTOM>10</BOTTOM>
<RIGHT>10</RIGHT>
</POSITION>
</GEOMETRY>
</BOX>
To delete metadata that is associated with a box, use XML like the following:
<BOX>
<ID NAME="BoxWithMetadata"/>
<METADATA>
<VALUE KEY="Asset"></VALUE>
</METADATA>
</BOX>
