Thought I should add that I dont want anything that's 'cloud' based or needs a subscription. Gotta be a one time payment or better still no payment.

I need a Windows 10 font manager that's fairly intuitive and cheap or free. I tried Fontbase first, but it can't work with Postscript. I'm currently wrangling with Nexus Font but that isnt compatable with how I need to manage my fonts. I used to have Font Reserve which got replaced with...

Yeh unfortunately I have projects done in versions after 3.3. In most versions up to 9. Im used to Quark's 'ways' didnt take long for me and the guy who used to assist me to start calling it Quirk. The man hours Ive lost cos its mangled a project. It's seemed a lot more stable in the later...

There was a period in the early 2000s when I could have made the switch. But for various reasons didnt. Quark is what I was trained on in the late 90s. By the time Indesign was fully established and had switched to the subscription model I already had quite a back catalogue of Quark projects...

My client (a magazine editor) wants to collaborate in the production process. Mainly making edits to articles to deal with text overruns, catching typos mainly. That sort of thing. In theory he should be able to do that with Quark Copydesk. I'm a little unclear on what's involved in getting him...

I'm stating that from memory by the way, I might have said what I needed to do specificaly slightly wrong, but it was literally two checkboxes in the print options.

I resolved the issue. A contact of a print 'broker' we often use explained a couple of simple steps, basicaly just adjustments to the output settings, that made a print quality pdf. The responses here were generaly a bit overthought tbh. There's literaly two options in the output for either...

Sorry, you did actualy answer my question. The other info kind of threw me. Like I say, this is basic as, there's no options for those types of adjustment with thi sjob.

To clarify when I said 'I mean tbf I have sent a pdf with colour (photos) to these people before and theyve reproduced adequately. However I didnt make that pdf, it was supplied to me.' It was a pdf created from Word that was supplied to me. I know how to assemble a publication in Quark and...

Thanks. Unfortuantely this is a print on demand company who dont seem to do the rip process, or its automated, or something. Its a weird setup and not like a regualr printer. I hate working with them tbh I know where I am with a regualr print outfit. Totaly lost with these people. But theyre...

I'm not sure how any pdf creator software, like the full acrobat or cutepdf would help me here as the files the author supplied are Word. (Just to clarify in the reply above when I say 'we have had author created pdfs supplied to us' I am referring to pdfs that were created with Word.)

We have had author created pdfs supplied to use before and managed to get a print quality product at the end of it. So I know it CAN be done. (I can ask the last person but wanted to ask people who 100% know their stuff rather than someone who possibly just went with default options.) These...

I've been tasked recently with creating print quality pdf from Word documents. I know where I am with Quark (more or less) but I'm a little confused with how to do it with Word. I'm a fairly small operator that mainly produces for a small press publisher with some small freelance work on the...
