Then it crashed again, and once again corrupted its files.Īt this point, I wrote to Quark support asking for help. When I did this, QuarkXPress worked… for a couple of minutes. Eventually-I don’t remember how-I managed to work past those dialogs, but I still haven’t regrown all the hair I pulled out in the process.Īnother time, dialogs popped up saying that I needed to create the special files afresh by saving the individual chapters under a new name and recreating the book. I quit QuarkXPress, deleted its cache, reopened the application, and tried to use backup copies of the special files. This book cannot be opened because information in the Job Ticket is damaged. If I clicked the default OK button, this message popped up: Warning, if you replace the Job Jacket, the structure of your book most will be deleted. Press OK to replace the previously linked Job Jacket with the selected one. The selected Job Jacket is not the missing Job Jacket.

For example, once when trying to open the book, I saw this unintelligible alert: This strategy largely preserved my chapter files, but it did not prevent the special files from becoming corrupt.

QuarkXPress crashes so frequently that I learned to save my work every 5 or 10 seconds and to keep open only the chapters I was working on.

In QuarkXPress, a book requires a set of separate files for each chapter and section, plus two special files that keep track of the book’s contents and pagination.

You would not want to read the full litany of the faults I found-even assuming I could remember them all-but here are a few problems that give a sense of what I put up with. What a mistake! QuarkXPress is the most bug-ridden application I have used in 36 years of working with the Mac. I found InDesign more confusing, and I dislike Adobe-Creative Cloud requires a pricey subscription and fills your drive with files-so I bought a copy of QuarkXPress. Both seemed to have comparable features and limitations. The only heavy-duty choices at the time were QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign. If you ever need a page layout application, do not buy QuarkXPress.Įighteen months ago, I needed to lay out an illustrated book. In the end, after much troubleshooting and experimentation, the best I could recommend was that he cut his losses and switch to InDesign, a luxury that he couldn’t afford given publishing deadlines. I can thus say, from personal experience, that what Charles relates here is only the tip of the iceberg of what he went through.

Although I don’t know QuarkXPress, I’ve laid out many books in Adobe InDesign and have years of experience working with PDF ebooks. Every day when I came back from the conference, I found Charles at his Mac, swearing at the latest problem created by QuarkXPress. At that point, Charles was in the final throes of laying out their book, Pretty Ugly: Why we like some songs, faces, foods, plays, pictures, poems, etc., and dislike others. Unless You Are a Masochist, Do Not Buy QuarkXPressĮditor’s Note: In May 2019, I stayed with Charles Maurer and his wife Daphne for a few days while attending the Collision conference in Toronto.
