CHARACTER AND PARAGRAPH FORMATTING
This feature is an East Asian feature and is only available when you have the East
Asian preference enabled (QuarkXPress/Edit( > Preferences > East Asian). However,
you can import and export text that uses these features in XPress Tags format using
any language edition of QuarkXPress.
OpenType attributes
Turn on/off styling is similar to the current method used for type styles.
Respecifying a tag toggles the current state of the attribute.
An asterisk in the topics below indicates a glyph attribute. The format for
applying glyph attributes is: <DoO,F"zero",I0,f"ACaslonPro-Bold">0<oC>,
where DoO = opening tag, F"zero" = feature, I0 = glyph index (where I0 = the first
glyph), f"AcaslonPro-Bold" = font, 0 = base character, and oC = close tag.
