5.0 out of 5 stars Takes some getting used to, but it's great!, October 12, 2000

This review is from: QuarkXpress 4.1 (CD-ROM)

It took me a few months, but I finally stopped complaining that they'd screwed up XPress. Version 4.1 is light years beyond version 3.3. And, it's a whole lot better than 4.0. The new features make this program a pleasure to work with. The user interface is more intuitive than ever. And, it still beats PageMaker and InDesign by a mile.

1.0 out of 5 stars Inconsistent and not compatible with OSX, March 22, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: QuarkXpress 4.1 (CD-ROM)

I just installed OSX, and Quark is not able to work in the way it used to. However, even before OSX, it doesn't work in the same manner from file to file.
