XPert Scale lets you quickly scale QuarkXPress documents, items, groups, and contents similar to the way drawing programs scale objects. Now Supports QuarkXPress 6's multiple undo/redo.
You can scale items visually or numerically (by entering percent values or dimensions). With both its precision and interactive scaling methods, XPert Scale can simplify headline creation, logo development, copy fitting, picture and caption adjustments, and many other common tasks.
The XPert Scale Tool added to the QuarkXPress Tool palette lets you drag to resize items and groups visually.
You can scale in terms of percentages of the item's current size, or by entering new dimensions (in current Units of measurement).
The fields and menus are independent, so you can define scaling differently for each direction. The Document check box lets you scale the items and contents in an entire document. Simply check the box and use the Width, Height, and Constrain controls as always.
XPert Scale's preferences also enables you to preserve attributes when scaling such as line width and text insets.
