Hi all,

here are the supported operating systems for QuarkXPress:

Supported Operating Systems by QuarkXPress version

QuarkXPress 2018
QuarkXPress 2018 is officially supported on

MacOS 10.13 (High Sierra),
MacOS 10.12 (Sierra),
Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan),
Windows 10 (64 bit),
Windows 8.1 (64-bit) and
Windows 7 (64-bit).

Please note that QuarkXPress 2018 – being a pure 64 Bit application – will not run under a 32-bit flavor of Windows.
Also note, that QuarkXPress 2018 is the last version to support Windows 7.

QuarkXPress 2018 will be supported on Mojave, most likely 2 to 3 weeks after Apple has officially released Mojave on Sep 24.

QuarkXPress 2017

QuarkXPress 2017 is officially supported under

MacOS 10.13 (High Sierra) - only QX2017-13.1 and higher,
MacOS 10.12 (Sierra),
Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan),
Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) - only QX2017-13.0.2 and lower
Windows 10 (64 bit) – also Fall Creators Update,
Windows 8.1 (64-bit) and
Windows 7 (64-bit).

Please note that QuarkXPress 2017 – being a pure 64 Bit application – will not run under a 32-bit flavor of Windows.

We are not sure yet whether we'll support QuarkXPress 2017 on Mojave. We'll make an official statement closer to the release of Mojave (MacOS 10.14).

QuarkXPress 2016

QuarkXPress 2016 is officially supported under

MacOS 10.13 (High Sierra) - only QX2016-12.2.3 and higher,
MacOS 10.12 (Sierra) – only QX2016-12.2 and higher,
Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan),
Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) - only QX2016-12.2.2 and lower,
Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) – only QX2016-12.1 or lower,
Windows 10 (64 bit) – also Fall Creators Update,
Windows 8.1 (64-bit) and
Windows 7 (64-bit).

Please note that QuarkXPress 2016 – being a pure 64 Bit application – will not run under a 32-bit flavor of Windows.

We will not officially support QuarkXPress 2016 on Mojave, though of course it might run fine. Please test yourself.

QuarkXPress 2015

QuarkXPress 2015 is officially supported under

MacOS 10.12 (Sierra) – only QX2015-11.2.0.5 (please read release notes beforehand to learn about a few known issues),
Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan),
Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite),
Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) and
Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – only QX2015-11.1 or lower;
Windows 10 (64 bit) – also Fall Creators Update,
Windows 8.1 (64-bit),
Windows 8 (64-bit) and
Windows 7 (64-bit).

Please note that QuarkXPress 2015 – being a pure 64 Bit application – will not run under a 32-bit flavor of Windows.

Please note that QX2015 is not officially supported on High Sierra and will not be supported on Mojave. However, QX2015 seems to run well on High Sierra with one minor cosmetic issues: Some controls are not shown in Save/Export dialogs. They will appear when you click somewhere (e.g. Desktop shortcut in sidebar).
