The GroupPicture XTensions module for QuarkXPress provides a unique way to work with catalogs and other publications that utilize QuarkXPress "groups". One example of this would be to archive and re-use catalog "product blocks", which are groupings of items (picture box, descriptive copy, price chart, etc.) that are related to one or more product SKU's. GroupPicture converts the concept of a "product block" into a tangible QuarkXPress element that can be saved, placed, databased, and archived just like an image file.
The GroupPicture XTensions module gives you the power to save complete "groups" of QuarkXPress elements (text boxes, picture boxes, lines, etc.) in special files which behave just like pictures. They can be archived, databased, and imported just like any other supported graphic format. The difference is that when you import a GroupPicture file, you get the original, native QuarkXPress elements perfectly positioned on your page and ready to be edited and styled.
GroupPicture is the perfect complement to practically any image database program. Each GroupPicture holds a color thumbnail and full-size preview image making them ideal for cataloging purposes. In addition, you may attach keyword and description information to each GroupPicture at the time of the save. This information will be picked up automatically when the image is cataloged, allowing you to perform keyword or even full text searches for GroupPictures in your favorite image database. GroupPicture also provides a number of options for automatic keywording, and can report additional information relating to fonts, colors and graphics used within the group.
