Desk Top Publishing with QuarkXPress 2018: Making the most of the world's most powerful layout application

by Martin Turner, Matthias Guenther

Now in full colour, Desk Top Publishing with QuarkXPress has been completely rewritten and redesigned for the latest edition of the world's most powerful layout application. This book, which links with the video series Desk Top Publishing with QuarkXPress, is the go-to guide in English for all experienced Quarkers, returning Quarkers and those new to the application. This edition introduces all the new features of QX2018, but has also been designed to be useful to people working with QX2015, QX2016 and QX2017, and indicates at which point a feature was introduced. This is a book not just about Desktop Publishing, a software category invented in 1983, but about Desk Top Publishing, an art, craft and science that goes back more than a thousand years. QuarkXPress is uniquely able to deliver everything from the most recent colour fonts (which themselves hark back to medieval illumination) to the most austere grid-locked renaissance type design, and to do it for iOS or Android app, HTML5 web publication, eBook, Kindle, print on demand or honest old-fashioned offset press.
