When you check Show Full Cell in the Display Settings tab (see “Design Grids —
Display Settings tab”) for a grid style or master page grid, you can designate one
of the cells in the sequence to be filled with the color that outlines other cells in
the grid. To designate the cell number and positioning in the sequence, use the
controls in the Grid Cell Fill pane in the Preferences dialog box
(QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences):
To specify which cells will be filled, check Increment Fill and enter a value in ●
the field. For example, to fill cells four, eight, and twelve, enter 4.
To restart cell counting at the beginning of each line in a text box, click Start ●
of Line. To start cell counting from the beginning of the story and continue
counting regardless of line breaks, click Start of Story.

Use the Color Manager panes of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit
menu) to define colors so they display or output consistently across all devices.

Use the Source Setup drop-down menu to specify the source color space of ●
pictures and colors used in QuarkXPress.
