PrintMedia Management eZine Reviews MarkzTools & PasteBoard
MarkzTools and PasteBoard by Markzware were reviewed in PrintMedia Management’s new eZine. I love the look, feel and ease-of-use.
They print a lovely periodical as well, but the digital version supplements the print edition very nicely. For instance in this case, for on page 12 you can read about Markzware’s MarkzTools for QuarkXPress!
MarkzTools is in part a document insurance tool for QuarkXPress. It can convert higher versions of Quark to lower versions, salvage bad files, secure QuarkXPress content and maintain document integrity.
Markzware MarkzTools is an XTension for Quark that helps to prevent corrupted QuarkXPress documents. Users can verify the Saved Quark document, and be alerted if the integrity of the file is suspect. Common QuarkXPress error codes that alert the user of corrupted Quark documents are [70], [39], and [108].
MarkzTools can make Quark backwards compatible, allowing users to open higher versions of Quark documents and directly downsave Quark from higher versions down to version 6 or version 4.
PasteBoard XT changes the width and height of the QuarkXPress pasteboard. It allows one to adjust by value as well as by percentage, giving a wider range of options than that within the QuarkXPress application. Select “Pasteboard Settings…” from the QuarkXPress Utilities menu and enter a percentage of the document’s page width and height to adjust the workspace. Note that the resulting height will be applied to all sides of the document page and will in fact widen a smaller workspace if the height is greater than the width. Of course, the spread dimensions are always limited to a maximum of 48 inches; the spread and page guidelines will be automatically adjusted according to the new dimensions so that they remain relative to the page.
