To create a font mapping rule, first open a project that uses a missing (inactive)
font. Click List Fonts to display the Missing Fonts alert. Use the Replace button to
choose replacement fonts for any missing fonts, then click Save As Rule. All the
replacements listed in the Missing Fonts alert are saved as rules, even if only some
replacements are selected. If you change your mind about a replacement, select its
line and click Reset. You can also choose File > Revert to Saved after you open the
article. This will display the Missing Fonts alert again and allow you to make
changes. (Note that the changes apply only to that article — not to any rules you
j
ust saved.)
Once you create a font mapping rule by clicking Save As Rule in the Missing Fonts
alert, the rule is saved in preferences for your copy of the application and applied to
all articles. If you need to change, delete, or share font mapping rules, choose
Utilities > Font Mapping.
You can use the Fonts pane (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences) to specify a default
replacement font and to control whether the Missing Fonts alert displays when you
open a project with missing fonts. For more information, see “
Preferences —
Application — Fonts

Working with design grids
The design grid feature is an extension of the baseline grid feature in versions 7 and
earlier of QuarkXPress and QuarkCopyDesk. Design grids make it even easier for you
to define grids, allowing you to align text and objects precisely on both the page
and text box levels.
For information on preferences related to design grids, see “
Preferences — Layout —
Guides and Grids.”
For information on preferences related to design grids, see “
Preferences — Layout —

Understanding design grids
A design grid is a sequence of nonprinting guidelines for aligning text and items.
Grid lines
Each design grid includes the following grid lines: bottomline, baseline, centerline,
and topline. In addition, design grids include a full cell box, which makes it easy for
you to align characters vertically or horizontally. You can align text and items to
any of these grid lines.
