Table Of Contents
You can add, change, and delete sections in book chapters at any time (Page > Section).
If you remove all the sections from all the chapters in a book, the book will revert to
sequential page numbering.
To view chapter page numbers in the Book palette, you must use automatic page
numbering.
Working with nonsectioned chapters
If chapters do not have sections, QuarkXPress creates a "book chapter start" for the first
page of each chapter. A book chapter start tells a chapter to begin its page numbering after
the last page of the previous chapter. To override a book chapter start and create a section,
open the chapter and choose Page > Section. Check Section Start; this unchecks Book
Chapter Start. When you add pages to a chapter, reorder chapters, or remove chapters,
subsequent pages and chapters will be numbered according to this section start.
For output chapter pages to accurately reflect the page numbering of the book, page
numbers should be placed using the Current Page Number character.
Any user who opens a book can add, reorder, and delete chapters. The user can also add
sections to chapters to override the sequential page numbering or synchronize chapters.
You may want to assign these tasks to one user (such as the editor) and ask other users to
simply open and close chapters through the palette.
If you open a chapter outside of its associated QuarkXPress book (meaning that you didn't
use the Book palette to open it), the page numbers may temporarily change. If the chapter
contains book chapter starts, which automatically update page numbers across chapters,
then the chapter will begin on page number 1 while you are editing outside the book.
When you reopen the chapter using the Book palette, the page numbers will automatically
update. If the chapter contains regular section starts, then the page numbers will not be
affected when editing outside the book.
Synchronizing chapters
To ensure that all the style sheets, colors, hyphenation and justification specifications,
lists, and dashes and stripes used in book chapters are the same, you can synchronize these
specifications to match those in a master chapter. By default, the first chapter in the book
is the master chapter, but you can change the master chapter at any time.
When you synchronize chapters, all the specifications in each chapter are compared to
the master chapter and modified as necessary. After you synchronize chapters, each chapter
in the book will have the same style sheets, colors, hyphenation and justification
specifications, lists, and dashes and stripes as the master chapter.
Specifying the master chapter
By default, the first chapter you add to a book is the master chapter. The master chapter
is indicated by an M to the left of the chapter name in the Book palette. To change the
