Xtags provides an enhanced version of the XPress Tags language supported by QuarkXPress. Both XPress Tags and Xtags import plain text files into QuarkXPress as fully formatted text, using special formatting codes embedded in the text file; and you can also export formatted text within a QuarkXPress document via both XPress Tags and Xtags. Except as noted in the manual, all XPress Tags constructs are supported by Xtags.Xtags adds several major features to the basic XPress Tags language, including the ability to:• create and fill both inline anchored and unanchored (out-of-line) text and picture boxes;• shrinking boxes to fit their content;• group created text and/or picture boxes;• apply master pages to the current page or spread;• translate user-defined tags into standard Xtags constructs (or into anything else); and• use macros to express complex, parameterized tag sequences as shorthand (for example, fractions).Xtags is an XTensions module to QuarkXPress, automatically becoming part of the QuarkXPress publishing system once it is installed. Xtags is invoked via the file and edit menus, and imports tagged text into normal QuarkXPress documents, as well as exports tagged text.Manufacturer: Em Software Inc.
