NEW FEATURES • macOS Ventura Compatibility QuarkXPress 2023 (v19.0) is compatible with macOS Ventura. • Long Document Support The number of pages in a project has been increased from 2,000 to 10,000 in QuarkXPress 2023 to support long document creation. Users can also import long documents up to 10,000 pages from Adobe InDesign in IDML or INDD file formats. • Hunspell Spell Checker Integration QuarkXPress 2023 now offers the Hunspell spell checking engine in addition to the Dieckmann one. A user can select either of these two spell checking engines from Preferences and see the selected dictionary in the spell check palette. • Convert a Book to an ePub In QuarkXPress 2023, users can merge all print layout projects and export a Book as a Reflow ePub, while also having the option to generate a Table of Contents for the ePub using either Reflow Article Names or the List. • Convert a Book to a Project Users can merge the chapters of a Book as a single project in QuarkXPress 2023, which includes all the Table of Contents and Index entries. They can then duplicate the merged print layout as a digital fixed layout and export it as Fixed ePub. They also have the added flexibility to define the page order before outputting the Book. • Picture Content Variable The Content Variable functionality has been extended to pictures in QuarkXPress 2023. Users can create a Picture Content Variable from either the Content Variable palette or the Content Variable menu by selecting any image. Once created, the Picture Content Variable can be used with any picture box across multiple layouts of a project and will update everywhere if the picture is changed. A visual indicator on the picture box with a Picture Content Variable will be visible by default. This can be turned on or off using the View > Visual Indicator menu function depending on user preference. The Picture Content Variable can be edited by replacing the existing image with any new image through the Content Variable palette. Any changes to the content variable will also update the picture in all the picture boxes associated with this Picture Content Variable. A user can duplicate or delete this Picture. ENHANCEMENTS • On-Canvas Picture Status QuarkXPress 2023 adds a new usability enhancement for pictures. It applies icons on the layout canvas itself to highlight the status for missing or modified images. The user can then update modified images or relink missing images directly by clicking on the image status icon within the layout.
