Project preferences
The Project panes in the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences)
affect all layouts in the active project. However, if you change project preferences with
no projects open, the new preferences become the default settings for all new projects.
Preferences Project General
Use the Project version of the General pane of the Preferences dialog box
(QuarkXPress/Edit menu) to specify default settings for auto picture import, single
layout mode, and OpenType kerning (for OpenType fonts).
Use the Auto Picture Import drop-down menu to control whether the application
automatically updates pictures that have been modified since you last opened a layout.
To enable the Auto Picture Import feature, choose On. When you open a project, the
application automatically re-imports modified pictures.
