This is a list of tags used for importing files into !QuarkXpress. <\/p>\n
There is an official PDF on lala in pages\/specs called !XPressTagsList.pdf<\/p>\n
Requires examples, and bringing up to date, but should cover most of the things that are generated by dataformat output …<\/p>\n
Note that all codes that are set in angle brackets can be combined within one set of angle brackets. For example, These codes act as toggle switches; the first time they’re encountered, the format is activated.The second time, the format is deactivated.<\/p>\n In these codes # should be replaced with a number. This number can be set to the same precision as Quark XPress’s measurements (tenths,hundredths,or thousandths of a unit). The measurement units used are shown.If you replace # \u00eeor any other code value with a dollar sign ($), QuarkXPress uses the formatting of the current style sheet. For Kern,Track, and Baseline Shift,the numbers can be either positive (no sign) or negative (use hyphen for negative sign). <\/p>\n Left-align\t\t\t\t\t<*L> Drop cap <*d(chars,lines)> \t\tCharacter Count and Line Count <\/p>\n Keep With Next para\t\t\t\t<*kn1> or<*kn0> 1=keep with next, 0=don’t keep with next <\/p>\n Keep Lines Together\t\t\t\t<*kt(A)> or \u00ecA\u00ee=all; start and end <*kt(start,end)> are number of lines<\/p>\n Set Tab Stops\t\t\t\t\t<*t(#,#,\"character\")> Position, Alignment (0=left, 1=center, 2=right, 4=decimal, 5= comma), Fill character or characters4 <\/p>\n H&J\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<*h\"name\"> Name of H&J specification<\/p>\n Rules ….<\/strong> Rule Below\t\t\t\t\t\t<*rb(#,#,\"name\",#,#,#,#)> Width, Style (from 1\u00f111), Name of color, Shade (percent), From Left, From Right, Offset (if you specify Offset as a percentage, place a percent sign after the number) (enter T in front of Left Indent value to base rule length on length of text rather than indents) <\/p>\n In these codes,# should be replaced with a measurement in points. If you replace # \u00eeor any other code value with a dollar sign ($), XPress uses the formatting of the current style sheet.If the code requires multiple values,every value must be present and delineated by a comma up until the last code you wish to specify (i.e.,if you only wanted to specify Left Indent,you could just type (More documentation needed for these two sections – perhaps some examples, as it is not at all clear)<\/p>\n Define style sheet @name= Name of style sheet; follow the equal sign with definition, just as if you were inserting \u00ecmanual\u00ee or \u00eclocal\u00ee formatting in the text stream <\/p>\n Based on\/next style @name=[S”based-on_name”,”next style name”] Name of based-on style sheet, followed by definition <\/p>\n Apply style sheet @name: Name of style sheet<\/p>\n Apply \u00ecNormal\u00ee @$: <\/p>\n Apply \u00ecNo Style\u00ee @: <\/p>\n Define style sheet @name= Just like defining a paragraph style sheet, except (of course) don’t specify any paragraph attributes Apply style sheet <\/p>\n This is a list of tags used for importing files into !QuarkXpress.
