Hi, Kevin.

I’m afraid that, in this case, your source is in error.

I Personally think this was the survey from Quark behalf as my friends name was there in the quark list. I think it is quite not fair on behalf of Quark to share his email address with a third party vendor. Also the way the survey was made about the features of theQuarkexp 7 shows that info may most proabably would have com from quark.

“indika”:

please send me quark 7

Well, no can do there. But Quark has a public beta program currently underway that allows you to download a practially fully functional beta to do whatever you want to it. It’s a free download, but expires at the end of March.

You can find it here:

Good luck!

Quark vs Indesign

Auf QuarkvsIndesign sind die jeweils zukünftigen Features der beiden Layoutprogramme Quark XPress 7.0 und Adobe Indesign CS3 aufgelistet bzw. gegenübergestellt. Es ist allerdings fraglich inwieweit alle aufgelisteten Fakten stimmen. Eine Prognose g…

Dean and Lee:

Admittedly, I’m still working on my first cup of coffee, but… What—or who—are you talking about?

Maybe he should spend more time at his desk learning the art of coding instead of treating the office as a youth club.

It seems to me that the whole coding process has been done in a very haphazard and lazy fashion. I can only assume that it was coded by a hack who seems to have jumped on the whole flash bandwagon. Or maybe someone who really isn’t very focused and passionate about the industry we work in.

I forgot about flashpaper, I can see the use for web abilities in there.

I’d agree with you on the coding portion — my experience with dreamweaver is it takes me just as much time to fix what it outputs as it would to code it right in the first place.

Should it handle Flash…? Yes and no. I can see a real need for exporting FlashPaper from XPress—FlashPaper is becoming another form of output—but not for Flash animations et al for Web use.

GoLive and DreamWeaver… I’ve played with both, but have never been able to get into any WYSIWYG HTML editor. I began designing and deploying professional Websites back in late ‘94 when WYSIWYGs were useless. Now, ten years later, I just can’t break the habit of writing code by hand. I comp and layout site templates in Illustrator, slice and export, then immediately rewrite the XHTML and CSS code in TopStyle, HomeSite, or BBEdit.

Should they really handle flash anyhow, though? GoLive is junk, but Dreamweaver is a lesser evil in the end — neither application is made for high end web development. They bundle it with BBEdit capabilities, we may talk further…

I think everyone should probably know that QuarkXpress 7 will NOT have any flash import functionality. I would be surprised if it even manages flash output in version 7.

Very interesting, Brian.

What’s even more interesting is that another person whom I trust told me that the e-mail address at which he received the survey invitation is used solely for correspondence with Quark, that he has never given it to anyone else.

I really wish Quark would return my calls or e-mails about this. Adobe says they aren’t behind it, but Quark has yet to comment.

If you look at Absolut Data’s clients, neither Quark nor Adobe is listed… But another industry player is.

If you take the survey, it is very much about QuarkXPress and various add-on modules for XPress. Of course, no one will own up to paying for the survey.

I asked the company “Absolute Data Research & Analytics” where they got my email address from . They responded saying they recieved it from Adobe.

If there is a Premium Edition of the CS3 Suite that includes Dreamweaver, that’s for me. As a user of both, and as an author of GoLive tutorials and a Dreamweaver course, I prefer Dreamweaver. I have had numerous crashes with GoLive and find Dreeamweaver more intuitive. I was hoping that Dreaweaver would get the PDF capabilities of GoLive..maybe that will happen anyway. At any rate this was a very intruguing article and it will be very interesting to see what comes to fruition!
