I'm 50 and have been using Quark since it debuted. Meantime jonjo1978, please don't assume anything about my software versions or experience with this software. Then with Yosemite, Quark dropped support for Quark 9 with NO appreciable dependability with Q10 and THEN they wanted me to by Quark 2015. I run a busy studio, I have no time for nonsense. Quark 10 was/is so full of bugs I regularly had to save back to quark 9 to get output without errors in shadows, colours, lines I did not create appearing.no support for MM fonts.SO MANY THINGS I was in constant contact with Matthias Guenther.Quark's top guy.sending files to troubleshoot with no fixes, just tedious work arounds with days of waiting in between. Finalise your software releases and provide final versions for people like extensis to develop for at least a month prior to release NOT THE SAME DAY!!! COME ON ADOBE, GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER AND GIVE PEOPLE A CHANCE. Not even superman can write plugins for software they receive on day of release (more worryingly, adobe felt the need to recode software at the point of release). As to extensis being in constant contact with adobe, they were, just even on the day of release adobe were STILL supplying them with new versions of the software to develop for.

Don't slam software if you are not using the latest versions - Adobe are going the same way Quark did, getting too big for their boots with the subscription only route, poor customer support and needless updates (all things that caused Quark to lose clients). Whilst I prefer indesign on the whole QuarkXpress has led the way in digital publishing and is easier to use many ways. Funny, I could of sworn Quark got the latest version out in April this year (some 2 months before Adobe)?īeing in pre-press my studio has to deal with both Indesign and QuarkXpress.
