A friend asked if I knew how to open a 47 mb file that has a.qxp extension. I found that it is a 'Quark' file that can be opened by Adobe In Design. Open A Qxd File Without Quark Star. List of File Extensions and Data Formats. Main » Quick Reference ». Component Definition file. Graphics (netcdf).

Nov 12, 2015 - If you are using QuarkXPress 9 (or below) that's not an issue, as QuarkXPress 9 opens all previous files from version 3 to 9. Please note that if you are using a file extension to classify your files, then the correct file extension for QuarkXPress 3, 4 and 5 documents is.qxd, for QuarkXPress 6 it is.qxp.

Colors are converted exactly to InDesign colors, except in the following situations: • Multi-ink colors from QuarkXPress are mapped to mixed inks in InDesign, unless the multi-ink color does not contain at least one spot color. In this case, the multi-ink color is converted to a process color instead.

• QuarkXPress 4.1 colors from the color library are converted based on their CMYK values. • QuarkXPress 3.3 HSB colors are converted to RGB, and colors from the color library are converted based on their CMYK values. • QuarkXPress 4.1 HSB and LAB colors are converted to RGB, and colors from the color library are converted based on their RGB/CMYK values. For information about other conversion issues, check the support documents on the Adobe website.

• If the PageMaker file or its linked graphics are located on a network server, floppy disk, or removable drive, it may not open as expected if an interruption in data transfer occurs. To prevent data transfer problems, copy documents and their links to the hard disk, preferably in the same folder where the PageMaker publication is stored, before opening them in InDesign.

• You may want to use Save As in PageMaker to clear unnecessary hidden data. • To ensure that all links are maintained, copy all linked files to the same folder where the PageMaker publication is stored. • Make sure that all necessary fonts are available in InDesign. • Repair broken graphics links in the PageMaker publication. • If you have a problem converting a large PageMaker document, convert portions of the PageMaker file separately to isolate the problem.

• All master pages and layers are converted to InDesign masters and layers. Master pages in PageMaker convert to master pages in InDesign and retain all objects including page numbering and guides. To maintain the order of overlapping items, InDesign creates two layers when converting a PageMaker publication: Default and Master Default. Master Default contains the Master page items. • PageMaker document guides are placed on the Default layer in InDesign. • All items on the PageMaker pasteboard appear on the pasteboard of the first spread in the InDesign document.

• All objects designated in PageMaker as Non-Printing are converted with Nonprinting selected in the InDesign Attributes panel. • Grouped objects remain grouped except where nonprinting items are included in a group. • Text is converted to InDesign text frames. • Tables in PageMaker files are converted to InDesign tables. • Styles are converted to InDesign styles. The [No style] in PageMaker is the equivalent of [No Paragraph Style] in InDesign. However, [No Paragraph Style] picks up the attributes of a named style if that style was selected before any typing occurred in the PageMaker publication.

• InDesign uses the Adobe Paragraph Composer for all paragraphs, causing some text to reflow. You can assign the Adobe Single-Line Composer to one or more paragraphs to create line breaks more similarly to the PageMaker composition engine, but text may still reflow. • InDesign uses only Baseline leading. Proportional and Top of Caps leading in PageMaker convert to Baseline leading in InDesign, possibly resulting in text shifting.
