I've been working with XPress since version 1, and if you think their sales and support are bad now, you should have seen it way back then. They would never have become the standard if it wasn't for their features. Anyone remember the alternate apps of the time? Ventura Publisher for PCs, Pagemaker 1.0, etc. They were horrible, and XPress was the only real game in town for serious publishing. Quark seems to think they still own the market. They still might, but they have serious competition for the first time.

Quark is the Microsoft of the design world.

Does anyone out there know the key command to have that little guy walk onto the screen and erase everything?

You select an object and press SHIFT+CONTROL+OPTION+APPLE and DELETE ....that should do it.

I would agree force quit - 10 years ago. But we don't live in the 90's anymore.

Better than once
You select an object and If you press five or six times SHIFT+CTRL+OPTION+COMMAND and DELETE, youwill have a big surprise !

Is there a way in Quark 5.0 to create two separate indexes using the index feature?

Can't find a search button on this site...so if this has been covered, forgive me.
In Quark 6 for Windows I get a blank picture box when I try to import a jpeg image--sometimes (jpeg saved in Photoshop 7). It's possible that the picture will print (haven't tried) but the picture box preview appears white which is no good for designing anything. Anyone with advice?

I get the same in 4 when using JPEGs saved in Photoshop 7. They actually come out as PICT files and I can't work out why. Whatever, they don't show up on a Quark page.

Quark 6 for Mac. What a joke. Too many bugs. Betaware.

I'm having problems when I open files from version 5 some type faces will not display or print. Files are just fine in version 5. Try to superscript a registered trademark and the display is incorrect, but prints correctly. Tech support for Quark is now in India not the US. They are getting cheap and the poor programming is showing. It might be time to switch to Indesign.

How to import the HTML file into Quark Xpresss layout?

Is it possible to export hyphenation exceptions to different documents?

I just upgraded my Mac to OS 10.3 and QuarkXPress to 6.1

I have a font that I use frequently. I'm trying to print to an HP LaserJet 4200, but it keeps substituting Courier. Quark is the ONLY program that will not send the correct information to the printer. Photoshop, Illustrator, and all of the MS Office applications will print it correctly.

Anyone know how to fix this?

I have been working in a Quark 6 file on my Macintosh for several months now. Suddenly the other day the file says that it cannot be opened by this version of Quark. It's strange because the other files I've created in this version of Quark are fine. Does anyone know how to fix this? More importantly how I can resurrect this important file? Thanks for any help!

I just got a job as a graphic artist for a community paper, and I'm having trouble with the justification of my columns. Sometimes it spreads words out, and obviously looks bad. I'm been playing with the kearning, but there must be another way. somebody please help! Thanks.

I'm using Quark Express 4.0. Whenever I use photos in my document, the file becomes huge, much greater than the sum of its parts. This makes it difficult, sometimes, impossible to send over my dial up. Even when I use collect for output, which finds and collects all the photos for one folder, the quark document, that is the .qxd is still huge. Why does this happen?
