    Master pages not working correctly

    Hi all! I'm using Quark 5 on my PC (I have v6 on my Mac, but I can't afford to upgrade both!). Anyway, it's been working fine for years. All of a sudden, the master pages don't work. I can't even "get" to the master page of any file. When I click on the master page icon in the document layout...

    How do I get a line over an "o"?

    I need to have a little line (not sure what it's called) over a lower-case "o." I'm using Bookman Old Style as my font, and it's not a choice in my Character map (I'm on a pc using Quark 5). Any suggestions? Thanks. Julie

    Quark 5 crashing

    Hi all! I'm using Quark 5 on Windows XP. It's been fine for years. Now... all of a sudden... today it crashes every time I try to import a photo or create a pdf. Any suggestions? I'm normally a Mac person, so I'm at a loss as to what to do on a PC. Thanks! Julie

    Using two wireless optical mice

    Hi! My husband has been using a wireless optical mouse for awhile now. I got one and hooked it up. It worked great... until he started using his computer. He was able to control my pointer using his mouse! Is there a way to change the frequency (or whatever) on my mouse so that his won't...

    PDF problem

    HI all! I am using a Mac... OS 10.3.9. I'm using Quark 6.5. I have imported a background file that contains a gradient and a logo with a drop shadow. The background/logo file was created using Illustrator (it's an eps file). When I export this page using the Quark export function, there's a...

    Hi! I see in InDesign that you can add a drop shadow that is soft-edged... can you do this in Quark? I'm using Quark 6 on a Mac. Thanks! Julie

    Export as PDF... and reduce size

    Hi all! I am trying to create a pdf from a large Quark document using Mac Quark 6.5. The file size is 24" x 48". When I try to export as a pdf, I'm told I can't export file sizes bigger than 45". No problem... except... I don't see where I can reduce the size of the pdf. In Acrobat, I know I can...

    Quark 6 sluggish

    Hi all! I'm not sure this is a Quark problem... it may be a problem with my computer. But nothing else seems to be running slow, so I thought I'd start with Quark. I'm using Quark 6.1 on my Mac (running OS 10.3.5). Lately it's been really sluggish. When I type text, I type it, then I have to...

    Adjusting corners

    Hi all! I need to create a box with rounded corners. But the standard one has corners that are too rounded. How do I adjust the amount it curves? I looked it up and it said I could do this in the miter submenu, but I couldn't find the miter submenue! Thanks so much. Julie

    Function keys not working

    Hi! Last weekend I updated my OS from 10.2 to 10.3.5. Since then, my function keys haven't worked in Quark. I went to the system preferences and looked at the keyboard preferences, but I didn't see anything about Quark. Is there something IN the Quark program where I can override the system...

    Unable to create pdf

    Hi all! I'm using Quark 6 on my Mac. I have been exporting to PDFs with no problems for months. Last weekend, I upgraded from OS 10.2 to OS 10.3. I don't know if that had anything to do with it or not... but ever since then, I have not been able to make pdfs. When go to File, then Export, then...

    Making the "cents" character

    Hi! I'm not sure this is really a Quark question, but I don't know who else to ask. I need to make a sheet of coupons. Obviously I know how to make the "$" character. But how do I make the "cents" character? I can't find it anywhere! Thanks. Julie

    Combining two Quark files

    Is there a way to combine two Quark files... without copying and pasting from one to the other? Sort of a merge function? Thanks. Julie

    Start up problem

    Hi all! I'm using Quark 6.1 on a Mac G4 running OX 10.2.8 with 512 mb of ram. After I intalled Quark 6, it started taking awhile to start up... maybe 2 minutes. Then it got better... or at least intermittant. But now it's consistently taking about 5 minutes to start up the program... literally...

    Creating PDFs

    Hi! I used to create pdfs using Adobe Acrobat Distiller. Now it's so much easier just to create the pdf directly from Quark. But I have a question. Using Distiller, I could create a page that contained 6 pages from the document (does that make sense?)... or 2 pages or 9 pages... anyway, it gave...

    Slow start up of Quark

    I am on a Mac G4 computer running OS 10.2.8. I have 768 mb of RAM. Sometimes when I start up Quark, it literally takes 2 minutes to start up (I've timed it). This doesn't happen all the time... I'd say about 50% of the time. Any ideas? It drives me crazy. Julie

    Exporting as PDF

    I have another question. When I export as PDF from Quark 6, it creates a HUGE file... even when I go to options and downsample it to 72 dpi. Any ideas how I make the pdf a smaller file? Thanks. Julie
