Layout Specification, which includes information such as page size and page count
(note that Layout Specifications must be created at the Job Jackets level).
When you associate a project with a Job Ticket template, QuarkXPress automatically
creates a layout for each layout definition in that Job Ticket template. Such layouts
have the same names as the layout definitions they were based on.
You can apply a layout definition to a project in two ways:
Create a project from the Job Ticket containing the layout definition, as described in
"Creating a project from a Job Ticket template."
Link the Job Ticket to the active project after the project has been created, as described
in "Linking an existing project to a Job Jackets file."
Whichever approach you use, the defined layouts are created automatically.
Exporting and importing Job Tickets
There may be situations in which a job definer needs to copy a Job Ticket template or
Job Ticket from one Job Jackets file to another, or to import all of a Job Jackets
structure's Job Ticket templates and Job Tickets into another Job Jackets structure. You
can do both of these things with the Job Ticket export and import features.
