Quark Releases QuarkXPress 7 Update
Quark Inc. announced today the release of QuarkXPress 7.02, the latest update to QuarkXPress 7, which includes the highest level of flexibility and reliability for QuarkXPress software users. The release will provide new, up-to-date functionality, including license-transfer features and typographic support for new languages as well as resolution of the most important issues reported by customers since the product shipped. The new features of QuarkXPress 7.02 will provide Quark customers around the world with the power and capability to easily upgrade to the latest version of QuarkXPress. In addition, this update adds typographic support to QuarkXPress Passport for a number of new languages.
License Transfer functionality
The new License Transfer functionality allows customers to deactivate and activate the software without relying on external resources, making it easier and more accessible for customers to transfer their licenses without calling Quark Technical Support. This new functionality will make the transition particularly easy for Mac users who upgrade their Macs to take advantage of the performance increase offered by the Universal version of QuarkXPress 7.
In addition, the new license agreement allows customers to run previous versions of QuarkXPress in parallel to QuarkXPress 7 on the same machine. Customers can maintain existing workflows created in previous versions of QuarkXPress and adapt to the latest release of QuarkXPress in a step-by-step process without any risks.
New languages
By adding a new type-rendering engine to QuarkXPress 7 and including Unicode and OpenType, QuarkXPress has moved to the next level in typographic versatility. The QuarkXPress 7.02 update introduces hyphenation and spell-check capabilities for various languages (Polish, Greek, Croatian, Finnish, Portuguese European, Portuguese Brazilian, Russian, Turkish, Catalan, and Slovak) and hyphenation support for Hungarian.
The new language features have been developed and implemented in close collaboration with Quark longtime partner Dieckmann GmbH, a well-known and respected industry provider of typographic resources.
One Quark customer claimed that “The new QuarkXPress 7 is undeniably a great tool that offers unlimited creative freedom to customers around the world,” said Marek Coufal, director of sales at Quentin. “We really appreciate that Quark is working to bring complete and easy-to-use solutions to European customers. It is evident that Quark listened to customer requests, understands user needs, and has fulfilled them in this implementation. We are looking forward to the future and other exciting improvements that QuarkXPress will offer Czech and Slovak designers, as well as all European QuarkXPress users.”

This panel has a couple of neat features for people who spend a lot of time in cloning. You can now set up a series of preset areas in the Clone Stamp tool. Simply click on one of the icons at the top of the Clone Source panel and Option-click (PC: Alt-click) on a point. That will save that location to the first icon. Click on the second icon and do the same thing. Now you can save a series of location points and go back by just clicking on the icon.
