Zoom to a specific magnification without the Zoom tool in QuarkXPress

You don’t need to select the Zoom tool to zoom in or out on your layout page. Instead, press [ctrl]V ([Ctrl][Alt]V) in Windows) and type the zoom magnification you want Quark to display. For example, if you want to zoom out to 50 percent magnification, type 50 and press [return] ([Enter] in Windows). If you want to zoom in to 200 percent magnification, type 200 and press return ([Enter] in Windows).

Easy way to import an image into QuarkXPress

To import an image into a QuarkXPress document, you don’t need to first create a picture box. You can easily just choose File > Import, or press [command]E ([Ctrl]E in Windows) to open the Import dialog box. But if you do decide to draw the picture box first, you still have options. Not only can you use the same import commands, but you can also double-click on the picture box to open the Import dialog box. Before you do, however, make sure the Picture Content tool is selected in the Toolbox!
