Working with Composition Zones
The following topics show how Composition Zones can streamline existing workflows by
allowing team members to work on the same QuarkXPress project at the same time.
Understanding Composition Zones
A Composition Zones item is a layout or user-defined area within a layout that can be shared
with other QuarkXPress users.
To work with Composition Zones in QuarkXPress, you must have Composition Zones
XTensions software loaded.
Imagine a layout artist in charge of the QuarkXPress project files for a magazine. The layout
artist can use Composition Zones to share content with writers, editors, graphic artists,
and remote contributors who also use QuarkXPress.
