Lists for books
In QuarkXPress, a list is a compilation of text that is styled with specific paragraph
style sheets. For example, you can take all the text in your “Chapter Name” style
sheet and all the text in your “Section Head” style sheet and compile a table of
contents with two levels. Lists are not limited to tables of contents — for example,
you can create a list of illustrations from the style sheets used on captions.
Generating lists involves the Lists dialog box (Edit menu) and the Lists palette
(View menu).
Working with libraries
Libraries are convenient for storing frequently used page items such as logos,
publication mastheads, legal text, and photographs. You can store up to 2,000
entries in an individual library. A library entry can be a text box, text path, picture
box, line, multiple-selected items, or a group. To move entries in and out of
libraries, you simply drag them or cut/copy and paste them.
Libraries are good for storing items that may be needed at any time in a layout. For
example, corporate logos, legal information, commonly used pictures and text,
chart formats, and clip art are all good candidates for library entries. Items with
hard-to-remember formatting can also be saved in a library.
Use the Library palette’s scroll bar to scroll vertically through library entries. Drag
the resize box in the lower-right corner of a Library palette to resize it. You can
expand a Library palette by clicking its zoom box. Click the zoom box again to
return to the previous display.
A Library palette
QuarkXPress libraries are not cross-platform, so libraries must be opened using the 
platform on which they were created.
