Reporter Functions

Reporter is used to give you a printable form of important information about your documents such as what style sheets are used and what parameters those syles use and picture locations, resolutions etc. This is often something which might be generated upon collecting for output for service bureaus and internal records.

THE REPORTER DIALOG

Use this dialog to select which reports you want to generate and how you want them to be made. Future versions will give much more control over content and formatting of reports. Also, future versions will allow you to generate limited page- based and selection-based reports.

Version 1 only reports on the entire document.

The Only if Used checkboxes will allow you to exclude certain items that are suppressed or on the paste- board from your reports.

Styles

Generates a report about styles sheets including important parameters such as fonts, sizes, colors. etc. First listed are paragraph styles and secondly, character styles.

Colors

Generates a report about colors in your document.

Pictures

Generates a report about pictures in your document. It includes important info such as the path to the picture, the resolution, color model and date modified.

Stories

Generates a report about each story in your document. A story is any discrete chunk of text which follows all links till the end of the text flow. Each story is labeld with the first few words from the story. Reports include word counts, paragraph counts and some other statistics.

Document Specs

Generates a report about the document such as where it’s saved, file size, date modified, etc.

Fonts

Lists all fonts used in the document and offers a few details regarding those fonts.

Combine reports

When checked on, this will cause Reporter to create one report that contains each of the separate reports, one after the other. When checked off, each report will spawn its own new document.

More Details

Each item listed in each report can include further details when this is on. Keep in mind that this can make the report considerably longer.

Reporter INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT:

FIRST REMOVE ANY OLD VERSIONS OF THE REPORTER AS THIS WILL CAUSE CONFLICTS IN QUARK!

Installation—READ THIS BEFORE USING!!!

Unless it’s a demo, Activate any GLUON by launching the GLUON Activator, provided. Place all GLUON XTensions in the XTension folder inside the Quark folder or in the Quark folder itself. This process must be repeated for each machine upon which you want to use GLUONS. Once you have activated a machine for one GLUON, this machine will run all GLUONS so you do not need to repeat the process when you get new GLUONS.

IMPORTANT: GLUONS will not operate if the above activation procedure is not followed! Please keep the GLUON Activator in a safe place off the network as you may need it again if the System or Quark is reinstalled.
