Click Create. The new book displays as a window in front of all open documents.
When a book is created a Job Jacket XML file with the same name is also created in
the same location. This Job Jacket file is automatically attached to the QuarkXPress
project when it is added to the book. When the book is copied to another location,
this Job Jacket XML file must also be copied to the new location.
If you store book files in a shared location, multiple users can open books and edit
chapters. To use the Book feature in a multi-user environment, all users must have the
same path from their computers to the book; therefore, the book must be stored on a
common network server rather than a user's computer that is also accessing the book.
Legacy books are not supported in 10 and books in QuarkXPress 10 are not compatible
with books from QuarkXPress 3 to 9. To recreate legacy books you must add existing
chapters to a new book after saving them in the QuarkXPress 10 format.
Working with chapters
Books contain individual print layouts from QuarkXPress projects (called chapters).
To create chapters, you add print layouts from a single project or multiple projects to
open books. Chapters are opened through the Book palette rather than the Open
command (File menu). You can rearrange the chapters within a book and you can
remove chapters from a book. The chapters in a book must be stored on the same
volume as the book.
Adding chapters to books
To add chapters to an open book:
1
Click the Add Chapter button in the Book palette.
2
Use the controls in the dialog box to locate the first print layout to add to the book.
The dialog box presents the layouts available in the project to select from. You can
select a single layout or multiple layouts to be added to the book. (By default all layouts
in a project are selected to be added to the book.) Each layout is treated as a separate
chapter. When you add the first chapter to a book, it becomes the master chapter by
default. The master chapter defines the style sheets, colors, hyphenation and
justification specifications, lists, and dashes and stripes that will be used throughout
the book. These attributes are specific to the master chapter: nonmaster chapters have
attributes independent of those in the master chapter.
QuarkXPress only supports adding Print layouts to a book. Ebook and App Studio
layouts are not supported.
3
Select the project and the print layouts in the list and click Add.
When legacy projects are added without saving them in a QuarkXPress 10 format, a
new file with a suffix of _001 (_002, etc) is created and the newly saved project is added
to the book. The legacy project remains untouched.

Repeat steps 1–3 to add additional chapters to the book.
