Key Features
QuarkCopyDesk® is designed to streamline collaboration processes and improves the efficiency of your
editorial workflow with features that facilitate copyfit text editing, picture editing and communication.
Choose from Three Views
Using the WYSIWYG view, writers and editors have the opportunity to see the same graphic-rich pages that
designers see. QuarkCopyDesk fully supports QuarkXPress® colors, style sheets, and transparent text boxes.
Get precise information on how your copy fits in the layout. Choose the view you like best — Galley,
Full Screen, or WYSIWYG — for viewing line counts, line breaks, and column breaks. QuarkCopyDesk continuously displays underset or overset amounts, word and line counts, and column depths. Not only does QuarkCopyDesk show pictures in all three views, it even displays previews of images anchored in a text component in all three views.
View articles in split view and split your article view horizontally or vertically to display the content in
Galley, Full Screen, and WYSIWYG at the same time. Content edited in one view updates in the other views simultaneously. The Split View feature even lets you display the different views of an article in different windows and supports working with two monitors perfectly.

Import and Edit Images in Any Format Supported by QuarkXPress
Import any image format supported by QuarkXPress, including native Photoshop® files, and use the same control and editing features as in QuarkXPress. After you import a picture, QuarkCopyDesk provides you with easy-to-understand controls in the context-sensitive Measurements palette.
QuarkVista technology enables you to perform advanced image-manipulation, such as Brightness, Contrast, Gaussian Blur and Despeckle.
The context-sensitive Measurements palette lets you crop, scale, rotate, and flip pictures
horizontally or vertically.
Use Master Components to Create an Article’s Geometry
With Master Components, the width, number of columns, and gutter width of any article component can be defined even before a QuarkXPress layout exists. This new QuarkCopyDesk feature is a significant improvement for any text driven workflows.
Use a Proven and Easy-to-use Authoring Environment
Writers, editors, and reviewers working in QuarkCopyDesk know the precise article geometry. When imported to the master QuarkXPress layout, their revised copy fits perfectly.
Electronic notes can be placed directly in the article text. Notes travel along with the article, even when it’s imported into QuarkXPress. You can improve your ability to track, implement, and archive feedback by copying and pasting edits, printing all Notes from a single document, and specifying custom Notes background colors.
Redlining simplifies edit tracking. Tracking changes with QuarkCopyDesk articles provides production teams with a clear record of any and all changes. Tracking changes also provides a new method for collaborative editorial communication — allowing you to view insertions and deletions made to an article, along with the details of who made each particular change.
QuarkCopyDesk also contains filters for exchanging text easily with Microsoft® Word, WordPerfect®, XPress Tags, and other common word-processing formats.
Streamline your Output Process
Users familiar with QuarkXPress output styles appreciate the ability to combine their most common output setups into one output style for repeated use. Output Profiles and Output Profile Groups take this even further by allowing you to incorporate metadata into the output data stream using an internal placeholder framework. You can create output profiles for Print, PDF, and Article XML and combine them into output profile groups — allowing you to output to three different mediums with one mouse click.
International Publishing Support
Enhanced support for Unicode® and OpenType® and a new global file format means you can work with QuarkXPress 8 publishers around the world, even in East Asian languages, with no compatibility concerns.
Choose among dictionaries and hyphenation in more than 30 languages, open and print a QuarkCopyDesk 8 file created anywhere in the world, or tap into easy-to-use, professional-grade Japanese typography.
A hot-swappable user interface is provided for all available QuarkCopyDesk 8 UI languages*, in all Plus editions, and selectively in other editions.
*At this time, 12 UI languages are available: Dutch, International English, U.S. English, French, German, Swiss-German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Russian, Spanish, and Swedish.
