Quark to InDesign conversion?

Does anyone have any experience of Quark to InDesign convertor. I am not sure if there is is just the one, or more than one, such utility.

I would appreciate any feedback on which is the best product to go for; and whether it is worth the money.

Quark to InDesign conversion?

InDesign will convert Quark 4 and 3 files natively. For anything later there is only one choice, Markzware's excellent Q2ID. Worth every dime.

Quark to InDesign conversion?

I second that. I am currently in the process of migrating to InDesign from QuarkXPress 8 and if it wasn't for Q2ID, I would be stuck in Quarkland for ever and ever. Not only saves time in rebuilding documents but also gets you halfway through that learning curve.

I use the plugin to convert everyday and it works great. Watch out with certain fonts, when converting oval shapes, and complex drawings with multiple curves as it ID likes to interpret them different than Quark did. You may have to do a little redrawing on those types of objects (so far this is the only issue I have run into).

If you don't want to buy the conversion software, there is a prompt service that will do it.

Here QuarkXpress files can be converted into Indesign files for a small fee, which will save you purchasing the whole conversion software for only a single file or so: link deleted by forum host

They have a coupon online for the plug in but it expires?(Aug 8) - in case you want it...

I just learned this... and verified it...

Anyone who has a licensed version of the plugin would be forbidden under the terms of the EULA from doing that. Your suggestion wouldn't ethically work.
