What gets converted from QuarkXPress
When you open a QuarkXPress file, InDesign converts the original file information to native InDesign information:
• Text boxes are converted to InDesign text frames.
To accurately convert text wrap applied in QuarkXPress, select Text Wrap Only Affects Text Beneath in the Compo-
sition area of the Preferences dialog box.
• Styles are converted to InDesign styles.
• Because QuarkXPress uses different color profiles, they are ignored in InDesign.
• Text and graphics links are preserved and appear in the Links panel.
Note: Embedded graphics—those added to the original document using the Paste command—are not converted. For
more information on embedded graphics, see “About links and embedded graphics” on page 349.
InDesign does not support OLE or Quark XTensions. Consequently, when you open files that contain OLE or Quark
XTensions graphics, those graphics will not appear in the InDesign document. If your QuarkXPress document does
not convert, check the original and remove any objects that were created by an XTension; then save, and try to convert
again.
• All master pages and layers are converted to InDesign masters and layers.
• All master-page objects, as well as QuarkXPress guides, are placed on the corresponding InDesign master pages.
• Grouped objects remain grouped except where nonprinting items are included in a group.
• All strokes and lines (including paragraph rules) are converted to the stroke styles they most closely resemble.
Custom strokes and dashes are converted to custom strokes and dashes in InDesign.
Colors are converted exactly to InDesign colors, except in the following situations:
• Multi-ink colors from QuarkXPress are mapped to mixed inks in InDesign, unless the multi-ink color does not
contain at least one spot color. In this case, the multi-ink color is converted to a process color instead.
• QuarkXPress 4.1 colors from the color library are converted based on their CMYK values.
• QuarkXPress 3.3 HSB colors are converted to RGB, and colors from the color library are converted based on their
CMYK values.
• QuarkXPress 4.1 HSB and LAB colors are converted to RGB, and colors from the color library are converted based
on their RGB/CMYK values.
