New QuarkXPress for Dummies released

quarkfordummies-inGraphic design and page layout expert Jay Nelson explains what creative professionals need to know to master QuarkXPress in QuarkXPress for Dummies, a new training handbook for QuarkXPress users that’s now available for pre-order and digital download – and was officially available in print on Monday, December 19.
The new book is a full-colour, hands-on guide to QuarkXPress, one of the industry’s most helpful tools for graphic design and page layout. It offers readers information about the latest updates to QuarkXPress and step-by-step guidance on designing and outputting projects – plus “tricks” for working with text, guidance on managing larger design projects and tips on how to correct mistakes quickly.
For those looking for the new version of QuarkXPress, Quark is currently running a Buy One, Get One offer on QuarkXPress 2016 licenses, which can be purchased through the Quark Store, Quark Authorized Resellers, and Quark Telesales. Its release reflects the resurgence of QuarkXPress among both new and long-time users who rely on the software for professional page layout, design, and digital publishing, said the company.
