Quark releases macOS Sierra update for QuarkXPress 2016

Quark Software has released the October Update for QuarkXPress 2016. With the new update, QuarkXPress 2016 now officially supports the new OS version 10.12 (Sierra), released by Apple on September 20. In addition to supporting macOS Sierra, the new update addresses additional known issues. The update is for both Mac and Windows versions of QuarkXPress 2016 and free for all current QuarkXPress 2016 users. QuarkXPress 2015 will also run on the macOS Sierra and users will have access to customer support. Users should check for known issues on Sierra before using QuarkXPress 2015 on Sierra. Quark added that, due to the extensive changes in the OS X 10.1x releases, Quark does not provide support for versions of QuarkXPress prior to QuarkXPress 2015. QuarkXPress 3-10 users who plan to migrate to El Capitan or Sierra should upgrade to QuarkXPress 2016 prior to migrating their OS X.
