Enter a name for the library in the Library Name/File name field.

Click Create.

Adding library entries

When you add entries to a library, copies of the items are placed in the library and

displayed as thumbnails. The original items are not removed from the document. To

add entries to an open library:

Select the Item tool .

Select the items or group of items to place in the library. To select multiple items, press

the Shift key while clicking them. However, if you select multiple items, they will be

saved in the library as one entry and not as individual items.

Drag the items or group into the library and release the mouse button when the Library

pointer displays. The library entry is placed between the arrow icons.

Retrieving library entries

To place a library entry into a document, select any tool and click the library entry.

Drag the entry into the document. A copy of the library entry is placed in the

document.

Manipulating library entries

You can rearrange the order of entries within a library, move entries from one library

to another, replace and delete library entries.

• To rearrange an entry within a library, click it and drag it to a new position.

• To copy an entry from one library into another, click it and drag it to the other

open library.

• To replace an entry in a library, select the replacement items in a document; then

choose Edit > Copy. Click the entry in the library to select it and choose Edit >

Paste.

• To remove an entry from a library on Mac OS X, click it and choose Edit > Clear,

Edit > Cut, or press Delete. To remove an entry from a library on Windows, choose

Edit (Library palette menu) > Delete or Edit > Cut.

Windows only: When copying, pasting, or deleting library items on Windows, use the

Edit menu at the top of the Library palette.

If you move a high-resolution picture after importing it into your document, you will

need to update the path to the picture with the Usage command (Utilities menu)

when you move the library entry onto a document.

Working with labels

QuarkXPress lets you manage your library entries by applying labels to them. You can

apply the same label to multiple entries and you can selectively display library entries
