Using drop shadows for text

First, forget ever applying the Shadow style in the Measurements palette to your text. It’s unbearably ugly, and you have no control over its appearance. Instead, use the Drop Shadow feature in QuarkXPress, as described in Chapter 13 — and use it only on large text, because although you may be able to make a drop shadow on small text look okay on your display, it will look terrible when printed.

CREATING CHARACTER-BASED STYLE SHEETS

When you’ve settled on a combination of character attributes that you want to use repeatedly, you can create a Character Style Sheet that combines all those attributes into a named, clickable palette item. When you want to apply all of them simultaneously to some selected text, just click that style sheet in the Style Sheets palette. Furthermore, if you change your mind about those attributes, you can change the style sheet, and all the text that’s tagged with that style sheet will adopt those changes. Both Character and Paragraph style sheets are explained in Chapter 10.
