The Batch Collect XTensions module allows QuarkXPress users to gather all elements required to produce or archive an entire group of QuarkXPress documents. This XTensions module works like QuarkXPress's built-in collection feature, but allows the user to work with more than a single document at a time. Select the documents to process using the file-selection dialog, check off the elements to be collected, and click the collect button. An option is provided to create a separate folder for each document, holding only those elements required to produce the individual job. In addition to collect-for-output features, Batch Collect XTensions module also includes a comprehensive reporting option. The report will list all pictures, fonts, and colors used throughout the entire group of documents, and will also provide important status information about those items. In addition, the report file can be formatted and sorted.

The Batch Print XTensions module helps to streamline printing operations by allowing groups of QuarkXPress documents to be printed automatically.

The Batch Update XTensions module automatically updates all modified and missing pictures throughout an entire group of QuarkXPress documents, ensuring that the original picture position and parameters are fully retained. There is also an option to save the updated documents under a different file name. Select jobs using the file-selection dialog and click ok. Batch Update XTensions module scans the documents and updates the pictures. For missing pictures, instruct Batch Update XTensions module to prompt the user for their location, skip the picture, or specify up to ten search volumes or folders and let Batch Update XTensions module find them automatically. Enable the search all subfolders option, and Batch Update XTensions module will scan through all subfolders of the specified search path as well. When the XTensions module has finished processing documents, it presents a detailed report outlining picture usage throughout all documents to identify exactly which images were updated.

The BIM Utility Bundle is a suite of XTensions modules for QuarkXPress that provide a number of productivity-enhancing tools.

font collector collects all of the fonts required for any QuarkXPress document. It also embeds font data into the EPS files created.

page printer can output each page or spread of a QuarkXPress document in either PostScript or EPS format and is particularly useful for those working with a third-party imposition application or when publishing PDFs to the web.

picture placer provides an alternative to the QuarkXPress get picture feature, allowing users to import a picture and select from various positioning options. The software can import any image file supported by QuarkXPress, even if the selected image is a different file type than the original. This feature makes the product ideal for swapping out low-resolution images in an OPI workflow.

picture namer identifies each picture that has been placed in a QuarkXPress document, providing a convenient way to catalogue the images. Image names can be toggled on and off through a single menu command.

print selector provides a unique marquee tool to select and print (or save as EPS) any portion of a QuarkXPress page. This unique tool eliminates the need to print complete pages, making it ideal for document design and proofing purposes.

The FlexoPrint XTensions module is designed for use in flexographic printing where it is often necessary to adjust the horizontal and vertical scale of a printed page. This XTensions module allows the user to specify a percentage of horizontal and vertical scale for a document which will be applied at print time. The original QuarkXPress document remains unchanged.

Fonts and problems — these two tend to be synonyms in the publishing world. It is often difficult to track what fonts are needed in order to successfully output a file on an imagesetter, laser printer, or digital proofer. FontIncluder 2/XT ends this nightmare.

FontIncluder 2/XT embeds TrueType, Type 1, and Type 3 fonts into EPS and PostScript files. Drag and drop EPS or DCS files (DCS 1.0 multiple file, and DCS 2.0 single and multiple file) onto the FontIncluder 2/XT icon.

FontIncluder 2/XT not only embeds TrueType and Type 3 fonts but will also embed Windows fonts into a file on the Macintosh. The Windows version will embed Mac fonts into a file on the Windows platform as well.

FontIncluder 2/XT checks any PostScript file (e.g., PostScript output printed to a file as well as EPS files of any nesting level) for needed fonts. If any fonts are not yet included (as is usually the case with standard EPS files), FontIncluder 2/XT scans folders (that are predefined) for the respective font files and includes these into the PostScript or EPS file. Whenever such a PostScript file is output afterward, there will be no missing font, and thus, no substitution with Courier will occur.

Though in some cases it is not absolutely clear what licensing agreements and copyright laws apply for this embedding procedure, most font vendors, such as Adobe, AGFA, and Linotype, explicitly allow for embedding fonts into a PostScript file.

Although FontIncluder 2/XT is a stand-alone application and a QuarkXPress XTensions module, it must be stored in the XTension folder within the QuarkXPress folder when driven by MadeToPrint XT (sold separately).

The Group Picture XTensions module provides the power to create special QuarkXPress library elements which behave just like pictures — they can be archived, stored to a database, and imported. The difference is that when a Group Picture is imported the result is the original, native QuarkXPress elements (boxes, lines, and so on) are perfectly positioned and ready to be edited and styled normally.

To use Group Picture, start by selecting the group of QuarkXPress elements. Select Group Picture Save... from under the Utilities menu, enter a name for the picture, and click Save. A new Group Picture file will be created. To import a Group Picture, click on a picture box and select Get Picture... from under the QuarkXPress File menu. Like magic, the original QuarkXPress elements will appear on the page, using the picture box for positioning.
