Font Scaling: Choose Horizontal or Vertical and enter a percentage of the ●
font size in the field. If you choose Horizontal, this value determines the full
cell width. If you choose Vertical, this value determines the full cell height.
Line Spacing and Leading: The Line Spacing and Leading values determine ●
grid spacing. Line spacing is based on the following formula: Font Size
multiplied by Vertical Scaling plus Line Spacing equals Leading. For example,
if Font Size is 12 pt, Vertical Scaling is 100%, and Line Spacing is 2 pt, then
Leading is 14 pt.
Line Spacing and Leading: The Line Spacing and Leading values determine ●
grid spacing and cell spacing. Line spacing is based on the following
formula: Font Size multiplied by Vertical font scaling or Horizontal font
scaling plus Line Spacing equals Leading. For example, if Font Size is 12 pt,
Vertical Scaling is 100%, and Line Spacing is 2 pt, then Leading is 14 pt.
When a design grid is based on a paragraph style sheet, the Leading value is ●
defined in the style sheet. The Leading value can be a specific number or, if
the value is auto, it is derived from the Auto Leading value in the Paragraph
tab of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences). See
“Loading grid settings” for information about linking style sheets to grid
styles.
Character Spacing and Sending: The Character Spacing and Sending ●
values determine the horizontal Full Cell spacing in horizontal story direction
and the vertical Full Cell spacing in vertical story direction.
Baseline Position: Choose an option in this area to specify positioning for the ●
baseline in the design grid.
To specify the offset origin, click Place at, choose Topline, Center (Up), Center
(Down), or Bottomline in the from the drop-down menu, and then enter a
percentage value in the field to specify the baseline position relative to the
topline, centerline, or bottomline.
To read the offset origin from a font, click Read From Font and then select a font
from the drop-down menu. The baseline defined for the selected font
determines the baseline position for each line in the grid. The percentage value
displayed below the font list indicates the relationship between the baseline and
the bottomline in the font’s design.
Offset: To control where the first line of the design grid is placed on the page ●
or in the box, choose Topline, Centerline, Baseline, or Bottomline and enter a
measurement value in the field.
Adjust: Click to display the Adjust Lines Within Margins dialog box for ●
master page grids. For more information, see “Adjust Lines Within Margins
dialog box.”
