To be sure they can open older QuarkXPress files on modern operating systems and to eventually migrate their files to version 10, users will need at least one license of QuarkXPress 9. Moreover, because of code modernization for QuarkXPress 10, the upcoming version will open only those documents saved in QuarkXPress 7 and higher. Once QuarkXPress 10 is available, QuarkXPress 8 will no longer be eligible for an upgrade. Owners of QuarkXPress 8 can upgrade to version 9 until August 30. Thereafter, only new licenses to QuarkXPress 10 will be available. Owners of QuarkXPress 3 through 7 can upgrade to version 9 through June 30 and then upgrade to version 10 for free, when it is released. Drake says customers don’t have to install and use the new versions immediately, but can choose to continue using their current version and upgrade when they are ready. “I would think having run these promotions for this many years, if you had any serious interest in moving to a more modern version of QuarkXPress, now would be the time to do it,” Drake said.Īccording to Quark, only about 5 percent of customers still use legacy versions of the software, and some of those versions date back more than 15 years. The wrinkle Quark added to its promotion this month was that not only could users upgrade from any previous version, they would also get QuarkXPress 10 for free.
