Check Use OpenType Kerning to activate the default kerning values for OpenType
fonts. When OpenType kerning is active, it overrides any kerning specified through
Kerning Pairs (Edit menu) for OpenType fonts.
Check Allow OpenType Transformations on Mixed Color Text to allow the user
to apply OpenType transformations on mixed color text.
Check Synchronize All Cross References On Output to have QuarkXPress
automatically synchronize all cross references in the project when you output.
Check Retain Local Modifications To Cross References so that any local
modifications made to cross reference text will be maintained during
synchronization at output.
To disable OpenType kerning for full-width characters, check Do Not Kern Full
Width Characters.
This option is only available for East Asian configuration. 
Layout preferences
The Layout panes in the Preferences dialog (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences) box
affect the way certain QuarkXPress features work with documents, including
whether pages are inserted automatically when text overflows and how colors trap.
Preferences — Layout — General
Use the Layout versions of the General pane of the Preferences dialog box
(QuarkXPress/Edit menu) to specify various default settings for page layout, such
as the snap distance for guides and the colors of hyperlinks and anchors.
In the Display area:
When you check Greek Text Below and enter a value in the field, QuarkXPress •
speeds screen redraw by “greeking” — displaying gray bars in place of text
smaller than a specified size. Greeking does not affect printing or export. Text
greeking is affected by the viewing percentage.
Check Greek Pictures to enable QuarkXPress to display imported pictures as •
gray boxes. Selecting a box that contains a greeked picture displays the picture
normally. This option is unchecked by default.
Use the Hyperlinks area to choose the color for anchor icons and hyperlinks. Both
Hyperlink icon color and anchor icon color are available for print and digital
layout.
Use the Master Page Items area to control what happens to master items when
master pages are applied. New master pages are applied to layout pages whenever
you (1) drag and drop a master page icon from the master page area in the Layout
palette onto a layout page icon in the Layout palette (Window > Page Layout); (2)
delete a master page that is applied to layout pages using the Layout palette; or (3)
add, delete, or move an odd number of pages in a facing-page layout.
Click Keep Changes if you intend modified master items on your layout pages •
to remain when a new master page is applied. The items that are kept are no
longer master items.
