*T107 DOCUMENT PARAMETER <=
¶*T107*e[ … ]*$¶
Every export command exports a *T107 object providing information about the QuarkXPress
project (formerly document) from which it has been exported. The object *T107 is always the
first object exported. Your database tests *T for 107 or the DX_Array{5} for "107" and skips
the object or receives the document information.
Demonstration
-
Choose points as the measuring units in the QuarkXPress preferences with all windows
closed; all measurements are exported by DATAform as points and can be compared easily
with this setting.
-
Create this new document:
-
Write “hello” in the created automatic text box and choose the DATAform command
“Export all”. This text with DATAformTags will be exported:

After *e[ – or in the 4D interface with DX_Read(1) in DX_Array {69} – you receive eleven
values, separated by semi-colons (the decimal point may in general be a point or comma in
DATAformTags):
"Document1" Name of the QuarkXPress project; resp. full path if saved already
841.89
Height of the layout in pt
841.89 / 72 = 11.693" see above illustration

595.276
Width of layout in pt
595.276 / 72 = 8.268" see above illustration
595.276 / 2.834646 = 210 mm, i.e. DIN A4 letter width
