• Modified indicates that the chapter has been opened and edited independently
of the book. To update the status to Available, reopen the chapter through the
Book palette, and then close the chapter.
• Missing indicates that the chapter's file has been moved since it was added to the
book. Double-click the chapter name to display a dialog box; then locate the file.
Opening chapters in books
Although multiple users can open the same book, only one user at a time can open a
chapter. To open a chapter, the Status column must show that the chapter is Available
or Modified. Double-click the name of an available chapter to open it.
Opening chapters independently of books
If you need to work on a computer that is not part of the network where the book
resides (for example, if you need to edit a chapter at home), you can work on a copy
of a chapter independently of its book. When you are finished with the chapter, copy
it back to its original location on the network; it will display in the Book palette as
Modified.
To ensure that other users do not edit the original chapter while you are editing a
copy, you can place the original chapter file in another folder so its status will display
in the Book palette as Missing.
Reordering chapters in books
You can reorder chapters in a book at any time, regardless of their status. When you
reorder chapters, automatic page numbers are updated. Click the chapter name to
select it; then click a Move Chapter button in the Book palette. The selected
chapter will move up or down one row.
Removing chapters from books
You can remove a chapter from a book at any time. Click the chapter name to select
it; then click the Remove Chapter button . The chapter name is removed from the
Book palette and the links to the chapter are broken. The chapter becomes a standard
QuarkXPress document.
Controlling page numbers
If your chapters have sections (Page > Section) when you add them to a book, the
sections and page numbers are maintained. For example, each chapter in a book might
be a new section. If your chapters do not have sections, QuarkXPress assigns sequential
page numbers to the chapters in a book. For example, if the first chapter in a book is
10 pages long, the second chapter starts on page 11.
You can add and remove sections to change the page numbering of a book. If a
document page has an automatic page number character on it, that page will display
the appropriate page number.
