QuarkXPress exports PDF files with weird names. Rather than simply naming the file the same as the document, it adds "_Layout 1" to the name. We're getting tired of renaming those PDFs -- is there any way to change it permanently?

Answer:

Sure. It's a preference setting. Just choose QuarkXPress> Preferences (Windows: File> Preferences) and in the PDF section choose your preferred default naming convention:

   Project_Layout.pdf
   Layout_Project.pdf
   Project.pdf
   Layout.pdf

(Note: in some versions, the dialog box mistakenly shows : instead of _)

To make QuarkXPress behave the way you seem to want it to, choose "Project.pdf". This will name the PDF the same as the document name

Explanation: QuarkXPress lets you have multiple Layouts within one Project (file). Therefore, when exporting to PDF, the name of the Layout AND the Project can be helpful for identification purposes.
