McCann-Erickson France Moves to QuarkXPress 6







McCann-Erickson France Moves to
QuarkXPress 6

McCann-Erickson France Moves to
QuarkXPress 6
03/24/2005 11:21 PM

Yesterday in a press release issued by Quark it was learned that top advertising agency, McCann-Erickson France, has chosen to stick with QuarkXPress for the long haul in spite of the growing trend away from that particular layout application and toward Adobe InDesign.

"For us, QuarkXPress 6 represents a long-term investment both financially and in terms of operator expertise," said Patrick Lorrain, managing director of McCann-Erickson France. "Our teams have always worked with this software, so we were confident that the transition to the new version would be smooth and would not disrupt our activities in any way." ...wishful thinking?

The real story here is answered by these questions: "What is newsworthy about an ad agency not switching its layout software?" and "Who cares if they are upgrading to Quark 6?" The answer to both is that Quark is hoping that the decision of one agency in France will convince you to ignore the numerous announcements of other agencies and firms that they have left Quark for InDesign.

Pfeiffer says QuarkXPress Lags Behind

Pfeiffer says QuarkXPress Lags Behind
InDesign CS
02/01/2005 10:05 PM
Pfeiffer Consulting has conducted an "independent, high-level technology analysis of Adobe InDesign CS and QuarkXPress 6.x, in order to allow decision makers in the publishing industry to evaluate the comparative strengths of both applications." IT-Enquirer has interpreted that study (saving us 295 Euros if we are willing to trust their summary) in this article and has come to the conclusion: "Stay Away from QuarkXPress 6.5...Pfeiffer found frequent and reproducible crashes, and serious reproducible dysfunctions of existing product functionality. The problems were so severe that a system's data integrity was in peril. Pfeiffer therefore warns against deploying version 6.5 without checking if Quark has solved the problems found by Pfeiffer."

I think the folks in the QuarkXPress Commiseration Area of our Forums could have saved both organizations a bit of time and money as they have all experienced these issues first hand...these issues and many others.
