This is the most recent version of Pasteboard XT, a free QuarkXpress
XTension from Markzware, a developer of custom XTension tools for
QuarkXpress from Quark, Inc. Among other things, this version fixes a
problem where the PasteBoard XT was necessary to be present in order for
the files edited with it to be opened in QuarkXpress.

I'm not affiliated with either Quark, Inc. or with Markzware; I'm uploading
this because some people in usenet newsgroups have asked for this.

Pasteboard XT 1.4 Release Notes:
A problem with the ruler orgin in Quark 3.3 was discovered and
corrected.

Pasteboard XT 1.3 Release Notes:
1. The default settings feature added in the previous version has been
removed as it was found to be causing some trouble.
2. A problem related to libraries was discoverd and corrected.
3. The "requirement" for having the Pasteboard XT present when reopening a
document that was altered by Pasteboard XT has been eliminated. (See the
warning at the bottom of this page). Documents saved with previous versions
of Pasteboard XT can have the "requirement" removed by simply resaving the
document with this new version.
4. When a document's pasteboard does not equal Quark's defaults, then
"Pasteboard XT" will be checked under the Utilities menu.

Pasteboard XT is a free XTension courtesy of Markzware which has been
extracted from the more advanced XTension SuperXState=81 as a means of
advertising some of its features. A full working demo of SuperXState=81 is
available upon request.

Pasteboard XT allows you to change the width and height of the pasteboard.
This is similar to changing the pasteboard width percentage using the
QuarkXPress application Preferences. Select "Pasteboard XT..." from the
Utilities menu and enter a percentage of a document page's width and height
to adjust the pasteboard. Note that resulting height will be applied to all
sides of the document page and will in fact widen a smaller pasteboard if
the height is greater than the width. Of course, the pasteboard plus the
spread dimensions are always limited to a maximum of 48".

Pasteboard XT will then automatically adjust the spread and page guidelines
according to the new dimensions so that they remain relative to the page.

WARNING: If you make a change to a document's pasteboard and run
QuarkXPress without Pasteboard XT (by removing it from the Quark folder
upon startup), the guidelines may not appear in their correct positions
when you reopen the document (because the dimensions will revert to Quark's
defaults). Also, if you are sending your document to someone else, you
should also send them a copy of Pasteboard XT.
