QuarkXPress users updating to Windows Vista have been surprised to find that the current version simply won’t run, in contrast to the pre-Vista version of competing publication application Adobe InDesign. Quark has now announced that a free update that allows XPress to run on Vista will be available for download on its site within the next 30 days.
According to Terry Welty, Quark Senior Vice President of Corporate Marketing, “Customers will benefit from the combined user interface enhancements of both products such as the ability to drag and drop images from the Windows Photo Gallery directly into QuarkXPress 7. In addition, users with Windows Vista will be able to take advantage of the unique new features of QuarkXPress 7 such as picture effects and Composition Zones.”
QuarkAlliance developers are also apparently testing their XTensions software for QuarkXPress 7 on Windows Vista.
