As per Usual, a Quark 6.0 Question.

Don't know quark at all, but have a general workaround I use for problems like that - create my text and even the basic layout in another program then import into the publising program for the final polish. For example, years ago I used to use Pagemaker once in a blue moon - never for long enough to really get up the learning curve. So I'd always create stuff in Word, including final wordng, and a rough layout (fonts. columns, approximately where the graphics woudl go), then import it into Pagemaker to for the final fiddly bits where you got it exactly the way you wanted. Could you do the equivalent with some program familiar to you with Quark?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Typo-- I tend to do that too, except what I am doing is changing other people's Quark files, just the text. It sucks. Which is why I would like to export the Quark file to anything else!

But thank you!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's of absolutely of no help tonight, Sophia, but I will check it out tomorrow and e you if I can find the answer.

I'm a shipper for the PageMaker, for a while FrameMaker, and now finally learning InDesign. But I've done a lot of grudging work in Quark previously (and hated the lack of a story editor) and the new version is remarkably less annoying to me.

For translation issues: InDesign will open up Quark 4. Quark 6 will save back to 5, and 5 will save back to 4. I was messing around with files trying to figure out a bizarro gradient issue in InDesign last week...

Hmmm... I don't, of course, have all those editions but where there is a will, there is a way.

Thanks for checking, Cass.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
