Smart File Name
Composition
Because Exportools creates dozens or even
hundreds of files, it's essential that a proper file naming scheme
is available to guarantee that each file has a different name, and
that it can easily be recognized. That's why Exportools comes with
a smart name composition engine that allows you to specify variable
placeholders, such as page or serial numbers, that change
automatically to uniquely name each exported file.
Post-Processing of Exported
Files
Exportools can also be configured to open each of the exported
files with a post-processing application you choose. For example,
select Adobe Photoshop to open the saved EPS files; or have
Microsoft Word open the pages you just exported as text. Exportools
also keeps track of up to 50 recent post-processing applications
you've used.
Export Selections
New
to Exportools 2.5 is the ability to export selections of items.
Simply select the items in your QuarkXPress document, and
Exportools will save that portion of the document to the desired
format. You can optionally specify a margin bleed, and whether to
include or not the area enclosed by the selection.
New Export
Log
Exportools 2.5 for QuarkXPress makes it easy to
keep track of the exported files with the new Export Log window.
This window reports in real time which files are being exported,
their exact name and location, plus any errors that may occur
during the output process.
