Free QuarkXPress to InDesign CS5 Conversion Guide
In the Adobe blog “Caveat Lector”, an Adobe employee identified only as “Vikrant” has posted The Adobe InDesign CS5 Conversion Guide as a 59-page PDF.
The guide covers QuarkXPress versions 3 through 6. Here is its table of contents:
* Top 10 reasons InDesign is better than QuarkXPress
* Learning feature names
* Top 10 differences you need to understand
* Opening QuarkXPress files
* Creating a new document
* Navigating documents
* Importing text and graphics
* Using native file formats
* Working with tables
* Using creative effects
* Preflight and proofing
* Important techniques
* Exporting PDF files
* Rich, interactive documents
* Supercharging your workflow
* InDesign CS5 resources
Download a zipped version here. Because it has some interactivity built in, it’s best to open the PDF in Adobe Reader and/or Acrobat.
