Full Resolution Preview XTensions software

With Full Resolution Preview XTensions software, QuarkXPress can display pictures on screen using the picture file’s full resolution. This enables scaling or magnification of the image without pixelation (as long as the source image has a high enough resolution to accommodate the magnification).

Note: Full Resolution Preview XTensions software has no effect on output. It affects only screen previews.

You can apply the Full Resolution Preview feature to individual pictures, one by one. You can also enable and disable Full Resolution Preview for a layout where the feature has been applied to one or more pictures.

To apply the Full Resolution Preview feature to the picture in the active picture boxes, choose Item > Preview Resolution > Full Resolution.

To enable or disable the Full Resolution Preview feature in a layout, choose View > Full Res Previews. When the feature is enabled, pictures that are set to display at full resolution will do so. When the feature is disabled, all pictures show their normal preview resolution, regardless of whether Full Resolution Preview has been applied to them.

If you specify Low Resolution in the Print dialog box (File > Print > Pictures > Output), all pictures in the layout, including any pictures set to display at full resolution, will print at low resolution.

Note: Full Resolution Preview is not designed to work with the BMP, PCX, GIF, PICT, and WMF file formats.
Note: To turn Full Resolution Preview off while you are working in a layout, choose View > Full Res Previews.
