New Project dialog box for Print layout type
Every QuarkXPress project contains at least one layout. Therefore, when you create a
project, you must specify a default layout for the file. You can use the default layout name
or enter a new name for the layout in the Layout Name field. To indicate the type of the
default layout, choose Print, Web, Interactive, App Studio, or ePub from the Layout
Type drop-down menu.
For more information about Web layouts, see "Web layouts."
For more information about Interactive layouts, see "Interactive layouts."
For more information about App Studio layouts, see A Guide to App Studio.
For more information about creating layouts for ePub export, see "eBooks."
By default, tabs display at the top of the project window for each of the layouts in a project.
To prevent these tabs from displaying, check Single Layout Mode. (You can still add
layouts to a project, but this will turn off the Single Layout mode.)
A project created in any language edition of QuarkXPress can be edited, printed, and saved
in any other language edition of QuarkXPress. All available spellchecking dictionaries and
hyphenation rules are supported by every language edition. However, text that uses East
Asian specific features (such as rubi text, font sets, and group characters) cannot be edited
in a non-East Asian language edition of QuarkXPress.
Options for Print layouts
The controls in the Page area let you set the page size and orientation for the default
layout.
Use the Default Story Direction controls to specify horizontal or vertical direction for
the layout.
The Facing Pages check box lets you create spreads. In a project with a horizontal default
story direction, the Allow Odd Pages On Left check box lets you control whether you
can have odd pages on the left. In a project with a vertical default story direction, the
Allow Odd Pages On Right check box lets you control whether you can have odd pages
on the right.
The Automatic Text Box check box lets you add a text box to the default master page for
the layout.
The Margin Guides controls let you set default margins for the layout, and the controls
in the Column Guides area lets you create a multi-column page by default.
Options for Web layouts
The controls in the Colors area let you set the default colors for the page background and
for hyperlinks. The controls in the Layout area let you set a default page width and
determine whether the page width is variable. You can use the Background Image controls
to import a picture file as the page background.
