Plus
- Work faster and smarter: Design faster and more precisely with enhancements to features you rely on every day and take advantage of fast, reliable PDF output, now with support for layers and unflattened transparency;
- Publish globally: Choose among dictionaries and hyphenation in more than 30 languages, open and print a QuarkXPress 8 file created anywhere in the world, or tap into easy-to-use, professional-grade Asian typography.
New Picture and Pen Tools
Integrate images into your layout quickly and seamlessly with QuarkXPress® 8.
New Picture ToolIntuitively place, scale, rotate, and offset images easily using the new Picture Content tool — no need to switch tools or enter numbers in a palette or dialog box. You can even see a visual preview as you crop an image!
Draw brand new illustrations directly in QuarkXPress 8 with the redefined Bézier Pen tool — just like you do in Illustrator® and other major graphics applications. Most importantly, you can focus on the task at hand because we’ve separated illustration tools from the tools you use for basic page-layout tasks.
Design and Output Flash (SWF) Directly from QuarkXPress
QuarkXPress Outputs Directly to SWF (Flash®)Page-layout professionals can create rich Flash® projects — without compromising design — using the built-in Flash authouring capabilities included in every edition of QuarkXPress® 8.
Working in the same, familiar print environment of QuarkXPress 8, you can take existing print jobs to Flash, or create new Flash projects, in minutes — no additional purchase or coding required! Interactive design in QuarkXPress 8 includes support for all of the new typographic features, the improved illustration (pen) tool set, full integration with Item Styles and other features, and support for more than 30 languages, including East Asian scripts. No other page-layout application gives you such advanced design capabilities that you can apply directly and easily to Flash design!
Create Stunning Text and Achieve the Effects you Want with Hanging Characters
QuarkXPress® 8 offers easy-to-use, precise, and fully customizable control for hanging characters. You can control the look of your text margin alignment by quickly applying preloaded settings for Hanging Punctuation and Punctuation Margin Alignment. And only QuarkXPress 8 offers the ability to apply your settings at the paragraph level, so settings don’t have to apply to an entire story. You can even include the hanging characters setting as part of a style sheet.
But our settings are just the beginning. You can build your own settings to precisely define the hang of any character you choose, including drop caps, to create the design effects that work for you.
