About this guide
You do not need to read the QuarkXPress® documentation from beginning to end. Instead,
use this guide to quickly look up information, find out what you need to know, and get
on with your work.

• Open, save, and close files
• Use menus, dialog boxes, and palettes
• Work within a networked computing environment
• Use the mouse, keyboard commands, and modifier keys
Consult the documentation provided with your computer or other resources if you need
