Table Of Contents
Any changes you make to the settings in Group A while no projects are open are stored
in the preferences files and are used for all subsequently created projects.
If the Nonmatching Preferences alert displays when you open a project and you click
Use XPress Preferences, subsequent changes you make to the settings in Group A are
saved to both the project and the preferences files. (The project's original Group A settings
are discarded when you click Use XPress Preferences.)
If the Nonmatching Preferences alert displays when you open a project, and you click
Keep Document Settings, subsequent changes you make to the settings in Group A are
saved only with the project.

specifications (Edit menu)

Any changes you make to the settings in Group B while no projects are open are stored
