Kevin at GraphicPush has abandoned Quark forever. Hallelujah, brother! Welcome to the enlightened brotherhood of InDesigners!

graphicPUSH: Dropping Quark

“

I am shedding the skin of repressive page layout, casting off the yoke of primitive interface design and leaving behind crashes, bugs, low resolution previews and inferior typography control. Today, my friends, I am leaving Quark for good.

”

1. My favorite quote from the posting:

   “… then deleted my installation of Quark on everything except my B&W G3 that still runs OS9. Just in case, you know? I may turn on that computer again one day. Maybe IÕll even launch Quark from its dormant, cold corner of the hard drive. But I doubt it.”

   I mean, c’mon…you expect me to believe someone will eventually turn on his blue’n'white G3 someday?

3. I have been able to open quark express 4 with indesign CS, but newer versiions of quark will not allow this. It sure would be sweet to find a plug-in that would do this for the newer versions. If you have any ideas on this e-mail me. Thank You.

Tip of the Day

Add Your Paragraph and Character Styles to All New InDesign Documents Automatically

Got paragraph and character styles you use frequently? Maybe you took our advice and created basic, global character styles for bold, italic, bold-italic, and regular. Save yourself some serious time loading your commonly used styles into new documents—make them part of the default for all new documents.

Open InDesign (or InCopy) but don’t open a document. From the flyout menu on the Paragraph Styles or Character Styles panel choose the Load All Text Styles command. You’ll be prompted to find a document containing the desired styles. Find and select that, and then pick the styles you want. When they import to the Paragraph Styles and/or Character Styles panels, with no documents opened, those style become available by default for all new documents you create.
