Layout preferences
The Layout panes in the Preferences dialog (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences) box
affect the way certain QuarkXPress features work with documents, including whether
pages are inserted automatically when text overflows and how colors trap.
Preferences Layout General
Use the Layout versions of the General pane of the Preferences dialog box
(QuarkXPress/Edit menu) to specify various default settings for page layout, such as
the snap distance for guides and the colors of hyperlinks and anchors.
In the Display area:
When you check Greek Text Below and enter a value in the field, QuarkXPress speeds
screen redraw by "greeking" displaying gray bars in place of text smaller than a
specified size. Greeking does not affect printing or export. Text greeking is affected by
the viewing percentage.
Check Greek Pictures to enable QuarkXPress to display imported pictures as gray
boxes. Selecting a box that contains a greeked picture displays the picture normally.
This option is unchecked by default.
Use the Hyperlinks area to choose the color for anchor icons and hyperlinks. Anchor
icon colors are available for all layouts, whereas hyperlink colors are available for Print
and Interactive layouts only. You might want to choose anchor and hyperlink colors
for a Print layout if you are planning to export that layout as a PDF file.
Use the Master Page Items area to control what happens to master items when master
pages are applied. New master pages are applied to layout pages whenever you (1) drag
and drop a master page icon from the master page area in the Layout palette onto a
layout page icon in the Layout palette (Window > Show Layout); (2) delete a master
page that is applied to layout pages using the Layout palette; or (3) add, delete, or
move an odd number of pages in a facing-page layout.
