Quark Inc. today announced that QuarkXPress 7 – the leading page layout software for design, production, and collaboration – received the award for “Best Creative Software” at the Macworld Awards 2006 event. Macworld UK named the winners of its prestigious Macworld Awards at a ceremony held at the Royal Courts of Justice in London.
Winners came from an extensive and varied list Macworld UK editors compiled during a year of fast-paced change in the Macintosh computer industry. This award is the third that QuarkXPress 7 has received since its May 23, 2006, release. The product was recently awarded “Best of Show” by the Macwelt editors at the MacExpo exhibition in Cologne, Germany, and it received an “Editors’ Choice Award” from Macworld UK in a recent review.
Quark released a public beta version of QuarkXPress 7 in January 2006. Early and continued feedback from the media has been extremely positive, and Macworld UK was one of the first magazines to produce a comprehensive review of the beta software.
Macworld UK editors wrote: “In terms of practical design production, QuarkXPress 7 is second to none. With this new release, QuarkXPress can stand up for itself as a compelling purchase for new users as well as a valuable upgrade for existing users who can move confidently to version 7.”
“We’re naturally delighted that the hard work we’ve put into this innovative new version of QuarkXPress is being recognized by the industry,” said Gavin Drake, Quark European marketing director. “Macworld’s editorial opinion is valued and recognized around the world in supporting our customers’ buying decisions. However, just as important, early adopters of the new version are providing equally positive feedback on how QuarkXPress is enhancing the way they work.”
