LFGSS Book: Book Designer and Printers Needed..

+1 on quark. fuck that right in the ear

yeah another +1 on the quark thing. does anybody even still use that?

One of the biggest publishers in the world.

I've got a couple of clients that still use it... Both of them are about to go inDesign...

The Guardian is still set in Quark Xpress, which surprised me a bit considering they had the opportunity to change it with the major redesign, but I can understand it when the publishing solution in terms of copy editing, file management etc. is as embedded as that.

I haven't used Quark since 2001 - if you compare InDesign 2.0 to Quark 4/5 (whichever it was at the time) it's hilarious how superior it was. Completely shat on it in every department.

wasn't the gutenberg bible printed using quark express?

^ Yes, I believe that's true...

My mate still uses Quark 5 at his place... Amazing really... I only started using inDesign in 2010, also amazing...

our artworker uses Quark, we use InDesign... bit of a pain in the ass. but then we're still on PCs and he's on a mac so swings and roundabouts

your on pcs??? doing design work?

mentalists!

I'd rather use InDesign on a PC than Quark on a Mac. That's how bad Quark is.

your on pcs??? doing design work?

mentalists!

not my choice I'm afraid! just got a new job though so back on a mac. designing on a PC is hell.
