Unlinking Text Boxes in Quark XPress

In Quark XPress, to unlink a chain of text boxes and retain the text within each box, you can duplicate each text box individually and then delete the original chain of linked boxes.

Kerning Tables Are a QuarkXPress feature

I, for one, am not so puzzled by the reader's reference to kerning tables. Are you not familiar with the ability to edit a font's kerning table in QuarkXPress?

Kerning tables in QuarkXPress is a puzzlement

The author does not seem to be oblivious to QuarkXPress' capabilities. The kerning table puzzlement may be due to why folks foolishly rely so heavily on kerning tables in QuarkXPress. It is possible (and often preferable) to modify the kerning table in the font itself if it was poorly designed.

Typophiles recognize that kerning pairs for fonts should be defined by the font designer, not the page layout artist. If you want to become a font designer, download FontForge for free.
