QuarkXPress 7.1 released

Quark has released QuarkXPress 7.1, an update to its desktop design software that brings performance enhancements, making the design software more responsive. The company says it has made significant performance improvements in several key areas — including text selection, clipped images, and flattening features. Each feature has received a performance boost, resulting in faster production times. In addition, the Universal upgrade has provided performance improvements throughout the application: in some areas QuarkXPress 7.1 is up to five times faster on Intel-based Macs than PowerPC, Quark said. Mac users must install QuarkXPress 7.01 before installing version 7. A full list of issues resolved is available on the website. The update is free for all Quark 7 users.
