Hi, everybody! David Dilling from Markzware
and today, I'd like to show you or introduce you to the new version of
Q2ID.
Q2ID v5.5,
which works within InDesign
CS5.5,
or CS5, or CS4,
will allow you to convert your QuarkXPress 9, soon to be added, and lower documents
into
InDesign.
Alright, breaking news! Just wanted to add in here that Q2ID v5.5
for Macintosh or Windows also has Lion 10.7 or Mac OS support added.
Here, we see our QuarkXPress document.
Let's open it up in Quark and see how it looks.
Document and advertisement for FlightCheck, which, hopefully, will be used to preflight
and package
your Illustrator, InDesign, Quark, PDF, EPS, pretty much any DTP document,
you name it.
I just want you to take a look at the positioning
the stylization, the fonts, the colorization, the overlapping, the trapping,
and we'll see how that looks after we use
Q2ID v5.5.
Alright. Q2ID itself is operational via the Markzware menu item within
InDesign.
Before I show you how easy it is to convert a QuarkXPress document,
let me first show you something about the license control.
You can activate your license by copying and pasting it in here,
hit Next and make sure you hit Finish at the end,
or you can de-activate this license
to move to another machine.
There's more on another video on how exactly to install Q2ID
on YouTube
and on our web page. Alright, so how do we open this here Quark file right up in InDesign?
How do we convert it? Simply go to the Markzware menu item that we discussed earlier.
Select Q2ID
and select Convert QuarkXPress Document.
Then we get this File > Open dialogue. You just cruise over to where that file is
and you select it
and you click Open.
It's that easy!
You see the conversion happens in mere seconds!
You'll see that it looks
exactly like it did
just a moment ago in QuarkXPress.
All fonts, stylization,
imaging, positioning,
trapping, transparency,
everything just comes over,
pretty much perfectly.
Why let a good ad go bad
when you can convert it?
I should also note that Q2ID v5.5
can do a cross-platform conversion.
So, I'm on a Mac here and I can open Windows Quark files and vice versa.
It converts any Quark file you throw at it.
So, in a mere minute,
maybe a minute and a half,
and you'll see here in InDesign,
It's 329 pages
and Q2ID just converted it in mere seconds!
A minute and a half to convert all this content
right
into
InDesign from QuarkXPress.
That's the magic Markzware's Q2ID can offer you - a great way to work with mixed
environments. It will convert your archived Quark files right into InDesign.
many of you will do a Q2ID search
on the internet,
in this case on Google, and you can find our web page
or you can see and hear what others are saying about Q2ID.
You come in, you check out our YouTube page.
We are MarkzwareTV on YouTube,
and there we have a whole bunch of
playlists
on Q2ID,
but also testimonials.
Hi, everybody! We're at Graph Expo here in Chicago and I have Sandy Cohen here.
"Q2ID did a better job than me
and I do InDesign!"
If you go up on our webpage,
you'll find the Q2ID web page under the Products section, Q2ID.
There you'll see this video
and a lot of other details
on Q2ID, including the system requirements. Please review carefully.
You can buy now or upgrade.
Q2ID v5.5 has a lot of new features and functions added,
most importantly, Quark 9 support and CS5.5 InDesign support
and Lion or Mac OS 10.7 support.
For those of you
lower versions of InDesign CS3, CS2,
we know you're out there. We do have the Markzware file conversion service.
