You can also use exposé to show all the documents windows. Just hit command-` (that's the character in the upper left hand side).

All of our printers made the switch about the same time we did and the ones that didn't, we got in touch with an Adobe rep and they "got them a deal they couldn't refuse".Ĭycling through documents is easy, since it's a Mac OS thing. In short, if you do want to read what I think of it, do a search on these forums.Īnyway, our studio is 100% Quark free and we have not had bad links, missing fonts and weird problems since switching over (Preflight and Package built in, including packaging fonts). I couldn't be buggered with Quark anymore. I have used Quark from 3.0 to 5.0 and InDesign since 1.0.
The flip axis depends on which control point you have selected in the transform palette. To flip contents, use the contents tool and follow he same procedure.
Peyote, to do a quick flip just select the object, klick on the little menu button in the transform palette and selct flip horizontal/vertical. Competition has proven to be good in a market dominated by one player for too long. The integration with Illustrator and Photoshop is also a pus, maybe they one day become one?īy all means, I don´t hope Quark goes belly-up. You get a stable app with lots of features that work.

And I will not get the free 6.5 upgrade after reading posts from all the pissed off users at the Quark forums.įor reasons only Quark as a company can resolve I feel InDesign and the Adobe route is much safer. It would crash when auto-saving (!), crash when exporting to PDF, crash when pasting text 6.1 is much more stable but not without it´s problems. When I say hassle I mean all the time you have to spend dealing with bugs in the app. Of course, I charge them more for the hassle. I´ve been using Quark since ´98 and after ID 2.0 I´m only using Quark on client´s request. I don't plan on uninstalling it anytime soon.īoth packages deliver good layout tools, but i find InDesign better by far. If you've been using Quark this whole time and are really comfy with it, know it's ins and outs, then you're well-suited to keep using what's comfortable. If you can use photoshop, or illustrator, then you'll have no problem picking up ID. Quark is still a powerhouse, regardless of what the critics say, and I think it's easier to do straight production work with, but for designing things, ID is better, IMO.Īnd for anyone reading this that hasn't used either, and is wanting to get into the publishing world with both feet, I'd choose ID for that as well. I'm not an 'authority' on them by any means, and I'm still quite green with ID, but just seeing what it can do with photoshop files, I'm impressed.

I say that now that I've just plunked down another $700 or so for a full copy of Quark with my new office machine.
But honesly now that I've started a few new projects in ID, I think it really is the better platform. I'm planning on a gradual transition, since I still have a few thousand files that are in Quark 6 (which InDesign won't open) and I'll leave the legacy files to run their course in Quark.
I've been a die-hard Quark user for years now (8 of them or so now) and I finally have started taking the move-over plunge into ID.
