MARKZTOOLS PREFERENCES
Verify Layout Before Saving
Select the checkbox to instruct MarkzTools to verify the integrity of the current Layout of
your Document Project just prior to it being Saved. If a problem is discovered then your orig-
inal document file on disk will not be updated, thus serving as a type of “document insur-
ance.” Note that you can turn this function on or off by selecting it directly from the
MarkzTools menu.
When the Verification process begins, MarkzTools will always first Save your Layout to a
temporary file in which case MarkzTools can then Verify the temporary file and, if successful,
replace your important original file with this new one, which is to say allow the original file
to become over-written. For example, if document data had somehow become scrambled in
memory and was saved to disk you’d end up, of course, with a bad document. By Verifying the
data before updating your master file, MarkzTools can therefore prevent unwanted disasters
Important Note - The temporary file’s name will use the document’s name plus “_q1”
tagged on at the end. The temporary files that MarkzTools creates are not meant to be available
to the user. These files are strictly for the “behind-the-scenes” use of MarkzTools and will be
deleted after a successful Verification. However, if a problem is discovered during the Document
Save process, the valid temporary file will be automatically opened for you. Additionally, as a
special feature, you can hold down the control key while Saving your document to instruct
MarkzTools to not delete the temporary file, in which case you can manually locate and open
the temp file from the designated folder. See also “Verify Document File” in a later section of
this manual.
Project Folder
Select the checkbox to instruct MarkzTools to create the temporary file in the same folder
as the source document.
Other Folder
Select the “Other Folder” checkbox and click the “Browse...” button to choose a dif-
ferent location for the temporary file.
Verification Sounds
Select the checkbox if you want a special sound to be heard upon Verification.
Always Force “Save As...”
Select the checkbox to instruct QuarkXPress to always put up a Save As window whenever
you Save your document. This allows you to create a brand new, fresh file by giving your doc-
ument a new name. Note that performing a Save As from time-to-time can often compact or
optimize a document file.
