Global publishing software giant Quark has appointed a new executive to lead its Australia and New Zealand operation after its previous country manager left for Epson.
Adobe and Quark both recently released new versions of their page layout applications: InDesign 2.0 And QuarkXPress 5. Both programs push design software to new levels of functionality, but the question is, will the market care?
Why don't young designers know QuarkXPress? Because the company ignored and failed to invest in Australia, according to Quark's CEO, Ray Schiavone.
On Tuesday, Quark announced that QuarkXPress 7 will be the first major publishing application to run natively on both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macs.
The publishing-software giant may be gaining ground on its main rival in the page-layout realm as long-time market leader Quark continues to delay support for Apple Computer's OS X.
Upgrade if you're a legacy QuarkXPress user and you want Mac OS X support; otherwise, try Adobe's InDesign.
Software maker Quark has announced details of the next version of its QuarkXPress publishing program, a key holdout in supporting Apple's Mac OS X operating system.
Apple Computer has pulled back from a plan that would have made Mac OS X the primary operating system on all new Macs starting in January.
Even as QuarkXPress implodes, InDesign CS gains features and capabilities that make it the layout application of choice.
The new InDesign CS will hold its own as the document-layout anchor of Creative Suite and as a standalone DTP package, but as a product update, there's little to write home about.
