Quark Forums

I have built this document from scratch in Q7. It will be a large annual report so have several master pages but at this point it is mostly a shell. I am in the initial stages of constructing elements, style sheets, graphic elements. I have hardly got any content in it so it makes me leery of constructing the whole thing in Q7. I have had magazine ...

Is it just me or are others finding Quark 7.3 incredibly slow on non Intels (OS 10.4.11)? I have not upgraded yet to Quark 7.31, since play around. Have those been resolved?I can build a document in Quark 6 so much faster using all the same xtensions and yests I do have Q7 upgrades of them all. I don't even have the images in the document yet. It ...

Is anyone else having problems with Xpert Scale and Quark 7.3 Mac?My Quark crashes whenever I try to scale a group of items either by putting an a percentage or unit width. I have relied heavily on this extension for so many years i can't count, any idea what is wrong?I have reduced my extensions down to the bare minimum.

I am looking at Docuslim but haven't decided if i will use it enough. It's the EV I'm looking at but depends on just what your needs are. It gives you the ability to specify a safety area in case you have to make crop adjustments later. Sounds very similliar to the ID one you use. Let me know what you ...

Unless i'm missing something, I just add a text box that overlaps the page in the bleed area and make sure i print with bleed.You have to manually change the number in the text box but that doesn't bother me. I have done very detailed job slugs for some clients this way. I did purchase Job Slug Pro quite some time back but haven't bothered to ...

I knew I had done this before and just had to test it to see how i'd done it.Put a right tab in the subhead line, insert a hanging text box (align with text ascent) with the name in it. Give the hanging text box a left run around (or indent) and pull down to the length of the copy paragraph below. Either add a baseline shift to the name style or ...

It would be very helpful if there was a way to view a document with/without the bleeds. I realize you can print with or without bleed but it is helpful to be able to see it live in the document itself.I have occasionally gotten around it by building a layer with white borders on it to turn the bleed on or off but unfortunately can't do this on the ...

I agree grouping would help, possibly with the option to colourcode them. However I've been getting around this for years by putting a letter at the beginning of my style sheets to help organize them, that way at least they show up in my palette in clusters. I choose a descriptive letter for that section or category, whatever makes sense...It ...

I too really miss the bolding reference!!! It's been causing me enormous grief and I'm a long time user Quark user so know how to confirm my page reference. I hate to think how a new user could keep track of where they are, it could get kind of ugly. I hope it is fixed soon......

I understand you can make a Composition Zone Layout but can you make a zone that contains items spanning a series of pages (several linked text pages), not an entire layout? I must admit i have not explored that CZ layouts yet, only CZ items.I am buildng a fairly complex proposal template for a client and there are several series of pages that ...
