Adding chapters to books
To add chapters to an open book:
1
Click the Add Chapter button in the Book palette.
2
Use the controls in the dialog box to locate the first print layout to add to the book. The
dialog box presents the layouts available in the project to select from. You can select a
single layout or multiple layouts to be added to the book. (By default all layouts in a project
are selected to be added to the book.) Each layout is treated as a separate chapter. When
you add the first chapter to a book, it becomes the master chapter by default. The master
chapter defines the style sheets, colors, hyphenation and justification specifications, lists,
and dashes and stripes that will be used throughout the book. These attributes are specific
to the master chapter: nonmaster chapters have attributes independent of those in the
master chapter.
QuarkXPress only supports adding Print layouts to a book. Ebook and App Studio layouts
are not supported.
3
Select the project and the print layouts in the list and click Add.
When legacy projects are added without saving them in a QuarkXPress 10 format, a new
file with a suffix of _001 (_002, etc) is created and the newly saved project is added to the
book. The legacy project remains untouched.
4
Repeat steps 1–3 to add additional chapters to the book.
As you add chapters, they are listed in the Book palette. If a chapter is selected in the Book
palette when you click the Add Chapter button , the next chapter is added immediately
after that chapter. If no chapter is selected, the next chapter is added to the end of the list.
A chapter can belong to only one book. If you also want to use a chapter in another book,
use the Save As command (File menu) to create a copy of the document. Add the copy of
the document to the other book. Placing a chapter in another book may change the book's
page numbering.
Chapter status
Once you have chapters in a book, you and other users can begin to open, close, and track
chapters using the Book palette. The Status column in the Book palette shows the current
state of each chapter:
• Available indicates that you can open the chapter.
• Open indicates that you already have the chapter open on your computer.
• Modified indicates that the chapter has been opened and edited independently of the
book. To update the status to Available, reopen the chapter through the Book palette,
and then close the chapter.
• Missing indicates that the chapter's file has been moved since it was added to the book.
Double-click the chapter name to display a dialog box; then locate the file.
