Quark is back. Again. 16.11.08
Queue the sad music…
Back in the day, Quark and I were happy together – then suddenly, out of the blue, something new came into my life – something flashy and exciting… they called it InDesign.It was a different package to what I’d been used to – but it was somehow, I don’t know… better. I used it, I learned it’s ways – and it was good. I thought we could all be happy together. I guess I was naive and young; as one wintery evening in 2005… Quark walked out on me. It was tough.
Now, over three years later, Quark has returned having had a make-over… expecting everything to be the same. But I’m not sure… I’m not sure I can ever take Quark back… it was so hard living without it… but I moved on.
Have you really changed, Quark? Have you learned to make PDFs quickly? Will you be nice to me when I’m in a hurry?
…end sad music.Seriously though, hasn’t Quark had it’s day? Is this too late for a quick fix? I did have to laugh at their ‘Revolutionizing Publishing. Again’ strap-line though – clearly they know where they stand.
I’ll try you again Quark… just not for $800! You’re not worth that to me anymore.

wanna say something?
