DENVER, CO – Quark Software Inc. announced today the QuarkXPress® Document Converter, a free tool that allows QuarkXPress users to open legacy QuarkXPress files in QuarkXPress 10. QuarkXPress 10 inherently supports documents created with QuarkXPress 7-10, but not legacy documents created in versions 3-6.

Through the simple QuarkXPress Document Converter user interface, QuarkXPress 10 users can select a single QuarkXPress document or an entire folder and convert the files to a format compatible with QuarkXPress 10. Prior to the availability of the QuarkXPress Document Converter, users needed to maintain a copy of QuarkXPress 9 in order to access old documents. The QuarkXPress Document Converter also offers the added benefit of batch conversions, which QuarkXPress 9 does not support.

“QuarkXPress 10 is the newest version of Quark’s award-winning page layout and design software that supports the latest operating systems and features the new Xenon Graphics Engine,” said Matthias Guenther, Director of Quark’s Desktop Business Unit. “There are millions of QuarkXPress documents in existence and offering automated conversion makes it easy for our customers to bring old QuarkXPress files to life in QuarkXPress 10.”
