PROJECTS AND LAYOUTS
by choosing Digital or Print as the layout type. (For more information, see Digital
Publishing with QuarkXPress.)
To change a layout’s properties, display the layout, then choose Layout > Layout
Properties or choose Layout Properties from the Layout tab context menu. The
Layout Properties dialog box displays. You can use this dialog box to change
limited layout properties based on the layout type, but you cannot change a layout
to or from a Digital layout type. (For more information, see Digital Publishing with
QuarkXPress.)
To delete a layout, display the layout, then choose Layout > Delete or choose
Delete from the Layout tab context menu.
When you use the following commands, only the active layout is included in the
resulting output:
File > Export As > PDF •
File > Export As > EPS •
File > Export As > JPEG/PNG/TIFF •
File > Export As > HTML5 Publications •
File > Export As > iOS App •
File > Export As > Android App •
File > Export As > ePub •

Layers apply to the layout that is active when you create and edit them.

When you perform a project-level action (Edit > Undo), the action is added to the 
Undo History in all layouts.
When you check spelling (Utilities menu), QuarkXPress checks only the active

layout.
The Find/Change feature (Edit menu) can search only the active layout.

Project-level and layout-level resources
Some resources are defined at the project level, and others are defined at the layout
level.
Project-level resources
Project-level resources can be used by every layout in the project, and they are the
same in every layout where they are used. Project-level resources include application
preferences, style sheets, colors, H&Js, lists, and dashes and stripes.
Although every list definition you create can be used in any layout in the project, a

list only draws from the active layout when you build it.
