Group A

Group A contains the following information:

• Kerning tables (Utilities > Kerning Table Edit)
• Tracking tables (Utilities > Tracking Edit)
• Hyphenation exceptions (Utilities > Hyphenation Exceptions)

Any changes you make to the settings in Group A while no projects are open are stored in the preferences files and are used for all subsequently created projects.

If the Nonmatching Preferences alert displays when you open a project and you click Use XPress Preferences, subsequent changes you make to the settings in Group A are saved to both the project and the preferences files. (The project’s original Group A settings are discarded when you click Use XPress Preferences.)

If the Nonmatching Preferences alert displays when you open a project, and you click Keep Document Settings, subsequent changes you make to the settings in Group A are saved only with the project.

• Default style sheets, colors, dashes and frames, lists, and hyphenation and justification specifications (Edit menu)
• Settings in the Project panes of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit > Preferences)

Any changes you make to the settings in Group B while no projects are open are stored in the preferences files and are used for all subsequently created projects. Any changes you make to the settings in Group B while a project is open are saved with that project only.
