Why choose QuarkXPress 7?

QuarkXPress 7 software surpasses its competition by providing tools for the entire print and Web page layout and production environment. QuarkXPress 7 combines design freedom with production reliability and acts as the focal point for multiple collaborators.

• Design in context
  QuarkXPress 7 provides a flexible design experience with more reliable output than standalone image-editing tools. Because QuarkXPress 7 supports native Adobe Photoshop files and has a dedicated image engine, you can edit images in their final context. Or work with Quark Vista to experiment non-destructively - without altering original files - and transform, manipulate, and crop images globally.
• Precise transparency
  The unique QuarkXPress 7 transparency model lets you set transparency at the color level - for any frame, background, and even single character with total independence. By avoiding the "item-based" approach of most publishing tools, QuarkXPress 7 dispenses with time-consuming workarounds required by competing tools to produce ordinary transparency effects.
• Simply faster
  The QuarkXPress 7 user interface is designed for maximum design and layout efficiency. By minimizing the dependence on multiple palettes with features hidden in palette menus and by using a versatile and adaptable set of tools, users can work faster.
• PDF/X that works for designers
  To guide designers, rules can be built to ensure problem-free PDF/X production - right from the beginning of the design process. You can adhere to compliance rules because QuarkXPress 7 supports PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 with full reporting based on industry-standard certification libraries.
• Unique peer-to-peer collaboration
  QuarkXPress 7 is unique in offering peer-to-peer collaboration, both by allowing many users to work on pieces of a single layout simultaneously and by providing designers with a framework to automatically synchronize text, color, design, and output.
• Built-in, dynamic support for JDF
  Job Jackets technology in QuarkXPress 7 supports a JDF workflow that is not dependent on other software. (JDF stands for Job Definition Format, an XML-based standard for the publishing industry that improves communication and workflow among vendors.) This technology goes beyond merely attaching a generic JDF ticket to a finished PDF. With QuarkXPress 7, you can actually create jobs from JDF-based Job Tickets, which ensure that your files are ready for print before the design process actually begins.
• Multi-channel, rich content publishing
  Unlike other comparable software, QuarkXPress 7 features a built-in, multi-channel solution for rich media output. QuarkXPress 7 can create content for print, variable data print, HTML, and XML from the same file without the need for conversion or repurposing.
