QuarkXPress 8.1 for Windows | 700 MB | 7 x RAR | Rapidshare

The next major release of the industry standard page–layout and design software that revolutionized publishing more than 20 years ago. QuarkXPress 8 delivers superior design power through a new, intuitive interface developed purposefully for the creation of high–end page layout, print, Web and Flash® authoring tools, design–driven typography, and global publishing capabilities – all of which enable designers to push creativity to its limits with confidence and control.

Version 8.1 improves PDF output capabilities and introduces features that make the page-layout process even more intuitive and productive. QuarkXPress 8.1 introduces a ‘Native Transparency’ mode for creating PDFs which can offer designers faster and more flexible PDF output support and provide greater control over their PDF workflow process. This release also renovates spell checking, adds the ability to paste text without formatting, and improves productivity with Scale functionality. QuarkXPress 8.1 also fine tunes Usability and Item Styles. In addition, it can help prevent errors by reporting faux font styles such as bold or italic. This version readies QuarkXPress for Snow Leopard and Windows 7 compatibility, and the Windows version of this release adds a Welcome Screen.
