QuarkXPress 6.1 released

Quark have released QuarkXPress 6.1, which is compatible with the latest version of Mac OS X. New features include improved Excel compatibility, an "edit in another application" bridge for attached images, and a tool to set font substitution rules. More excitingly, some of the bug fixes make it almost conceivable that you could use the application for something. Some examples: "Creating a layout after checking Facing Pages in the New Project dialog box no longer causes QuarkXPress to quit unexpectedly" ... "A number of issues dealing with saving documents locally and over the network have been resolved" ... "no longer quits unexpectedly when you import, update, print, or collect JPEG images that were created in Photoshop" ... "You can now use a mouse to create tables correctly" ... "When you select text in a text box and increase the font size to 128 pt or larger, the color of the text no longer change" ... "QuarkXPress no longer quits unexpectedly if a large number of fonts are installed on your computer" ... and my favourite: "QuarkXPress no longer quits unexpectedly if you open a document or project that was saved in QuarkXPress 6.0."
