Creating a project from a Job Ticket template

When you create a project from a Job Ticket template, QuarkXPress always creates a Job Ticket from that Job Ticket template. You can choose where that Job Ticket is stored: In a shared Job Jackets file, or in an embedded Job Jackets structure in the project file.

To create a project from a Job Ticket template:

  1. Choose File > New > Project from Ticket. The New Project from Ticket dialog box displays.

    Use the New Project from Ticket dialog box to select a Job Ticket template for a new project.

  2. If the Job Jackets structure you want is not displayed, click Browse, navigate to the Job Jackets file, and then click Open.
  3. Select the target Job Ticket template in the list. (Note that you can also select a deferred Job Ticket.)
  4. Check or uncheck the Share Jacket check box, as follows:
    • To store this project’s active Job Ticket in an external Job Jackets file, so the Job Ticket can share Resources with other users of that Job Jackets file, check Share Jacket. (For more information, see “Collaborating with shared Job Jackets.”)
    • To store this project’s Job Ticket in an embedded Job Jackets structure in the project file, uncheck Share Jacket.
  5. Click Select. The new project inherits the Job Ticket template’s project settings, and QuarkXPress automatically creates layouts for any layout definitions in the Job Ticket template.
Note: You cannot store a Job Ticket in the default Job Jackets structure. Consequently, if you create a project from a Job Ticket template that is in the default Job Jackets structure, and you check Share Jacket, you will be prompted to save a new Job Jackets file in the file system.
