Script Preview: Formatted Text Preview

Scroll Prev Up Next More
The Formatted Text Preview dialog lets you preview the appearance of a token's conversion within the script preview window.

 

Preview

 

This is a better preview of the token's converted value that the one found in the list of token values:

 

The default font size is 12 points instead of 8 points, showing more detail.

The full text is displayed, including tabulations and carriage returns.

 

Full Formatted Text

 

Shows the entire format string that is sent to QuarkXPress, including attributes which cannot be previewed, such as:

 

Outline, Kerning, ...: which cannot be rendered by the standard Windows Rich-Text control used to preview.

Attributes removal: which depend on the attributes of the text in the QuarkXPress file itself.

 

Note that this dialog is re-sizeable, and that the relative space occupied by each of the 2 elements above can also be changed using the horizontal splitter.
