Importing Text
1. Draw a tall text box that extends from the
left margin to the right margin of the page. Use the Item tool to move
the text box to the desired position.
2. With the insertion point blinking in the text box (switch to the Content
tool), choose Get text from the File menu. The Get Text dialog box appears.
3. Use the dialog box to find the file with the text you wish to use.
4. Click OK to import the text
Linking Text Box
The text you have imported is too much to fit the title
text box youve made. You can always tell when theres more
text than can fit in a box by the red x mark box at the lower right corner
of the text box.
1. Draw a second text box.
2. Choose the link tool from Tool palette (the one at the bottom of the
palette that looks like a chain). Click and select the first box on the
page (the wide one at the top) with the Link tool. The outside edge of
the box begins to have running ants, to tell you that its selected.
3. Then click on the empty text box. An arrow flashes momentarily between
the two boxes, and the continuation of the text appears in the second
box.
Importing Graphics
In QuarkXpress once you have created a picture
box, you are able to bring a graphic into it. The graphic can be from
Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, Adobe Photoshop, and others. The
graphic should be in EPS or Tif format.
1. With the picture box selected, choose > file > get picture, a
dialog box appears, find your picture and click open to import your image.
2. If your picture box is small or big you can adjust it by dragging out
the sides of the picture box until the box is big or small enough for
the graphic.
3. You can position your graphics in the middle of the box by using shift-M
or control-shift-M.
