Preferences — Application — PDF
Use the PDF pane of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit menu) to set
preferences for PDF export.
Use the options in the PDF Workflow area to determine how PDF files are distilled:
• Click Direct to PDF to have QuarkXPress distill the PDF file.
• Click Create PostScript File for Later Distilling to export a PostScript file with PDF marks.
Using this option, you can later generate the PDF file using a third-party PDF distilling
application. If you check this option, you can also check Use "Watched Folder" and specify
the directory where PostScript files should be placed (presumably for automatic processing
by a PDF distilling tool). If you do not check Use "Watched Folder," you will be prompted
for a location for the PostScript file.
Mac OS X only: To increase the amount of virtual memory available for rendering large
PDF files during a PDF export operation, increase the value in the Virtual Memory field.
Use the Default Name drop-down menu to choose a default name for exported PDF files.
Check Log Errors to create a log of errors (if any) during the creation of PDF files. When
this option is checked, you can check Use Log Folder to specify where to save the log file.
If Use Log Folder is unchecked, the log file is created in the same directory as the exported
PDF file.
Preferences — Application — Redline
Use the Redline pane of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit menu) to specify
the way inserted text and deleted text display.
