Screenshot of QuarkXPress 2020

QuarkXPress is a desktop publishing program with a WYSIWYG interface. It is used to create a wide range of published materials including flyers, newspapers, and catalogs.

Beyond basic tools like font, alignment, spacing, and color, QuarkXPress comes with many features and professional typesetting options. It lets allows you to change more advanced typesetting options like kerning, curving text on a path, and ligatures. Other features include highlighting of missing fonts, exporting to eBook, and importing of Microsoft Word files.

QuarkXPress allows you to delve deep into the details of your publication so that you can tweak them to perfection. It allows you to zoom in up to 8000% so that you can position elements on a page as precisely as possible. With its adaptive resolution and native support for PDFs, all elements on a page retain the highest quality when you zoom.

If you are looking for a powerful publication tool that allows you to focus on every detail of your project, QuarkXPress is a great program. If you are on a tight budget, you might want to try a cheaper alternative.
