QUARK XPRESS

Quark XPress 7 is one of two heavyweights in the desktop publishing software arena; the other is Adobe InDesign. Both programs have diehard fans. And both offer many powerful design and publishing tools, as well as a quirk or two.

Both XPress and InDesign were created for graphic design professionals. InDesign has a less steep learning curve than XPress, but neither program is a good choice for novices. If your publishing needs are routine, or you only occasionally produce publications, then XPress is not likely to be worth the expense or the learning challenge. If you fit the target audience, then XPress offers a number of powerful tools that will give you near-complete control over the final look of your publications.

An improved interface offers a number of customization options. You can group and dock palettes to suit your preferred working style, save palette groupings for specific types of projects and show or hide palette groups with a keyboard command.

In addition to supporting native Adobe Photoshop files, Quark XPress 7 offers a number of new tools, including transparency, drop shadows and other special effects that allow you to manipulate graphics directly within the program.

New typography features provide more precise control over type, including better hyphenation and justification controls.

The new Quark Job Jackets feature ensures that everyone who is working on the same project is using the same specifications, from start to finish. If you create publications for clients, such as a magazine or book publisher, this feature ensures that you work to your client's established specifications.

Improved output options make it easier to output a project in a variety of formats (print, PDF, XML, HTML) and maintain consistency.

Quark XPress 7 offers powerful desktop publishing tools for graphics professionals and aspiring graphics professionals.

Pros: A powerful collection of design and publishing tools, offers many improvements over previous versions, including an improved interface, better color management, improved PDF handling, and better integration with Adobe Photoshop

Cons: Expensive, although several hundred dollars less expensive than it used to be, steep learning curve, demo requires registration

Sayangnya QuarkXpress versi 7 tidak support untuk Windows Vista dan Seven, namun yang baru Quark Xpress Versi 8 sudah suport untuk Windows Seven.
