Working with Job Tickets
A Job Ticket is a set of Resources (specifications and rules) that can be applied
to one or more QuarkXPress projects. Each Job Ticket has a name and is stored
in a particular Job Jackets structure. A Job Ticket contains both project-level
Resources (such as colors, style sheets, and color management settings) and
layout-level Resources (such as Layout Specifications and layout definitions).
There are three kinds of Job Tickets:
A Job Ticket template is a definition for a “master” Job Ticket. In some ways, ●
a Job Ticket template is similar to a master page or a QuarkXPress template
file.
An active Job Ticket is a copy of a Job Ticket template that is associated ●
with a particular project.
A deferred Job Ticket is a copy of a Job Ticket template that has been ●
associated with a project, but is no longer associated with that project (for
example, if the project was closed without being saved).
Creating a Job Ticket template
Here are some guidelines to indicate when you might want to have separate Job
Ticket templates:
If you have a recurring print job, such as a newsletter or magazine, you might ●
want to create a Job Ticket template for that job.
If you plan to create several types of layouts (such as a poster, postcard, and ●
digital medium) that are all based on a single campaign or theme, you might
want to create a Job Ticket template for each layout and store all of the Job
Ticket templates in a single Job Jackets file. That way, all of the layouts can
share the same style sheets, colors, and so forth.
