Can CS5 open QuarkXPress 8 files?

Hi,
We currently use CS3 but our graphic designer has upgraded to QuarkXPress 8 and now we can't open her Quark files (we have the conversion software that worked for files saved in Quark 7). When we try to open these files, we get the following message: Cannot open the file "Blah". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application.
If we upgrade to CS5, will we then be able to open QuarkXPress 8 files? If not, what do we have to do to open them (short of switching over to Quark ourselves)?
Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.

Hi folks, David from Markzware, the makers of Q2ID here. Just wanted to post an update. Q2ID v5.5 is now out with Adobe InDesign CS5.5, CS5 and CS4 support. It will run, as a plugin, in those versions of InDesign. Q2ID v5.5 will convert QuarkXPress v9.1 projects, right on down the ladder, straight into InDesign, saving huge amounts of time and money in DTP (desktop publishing) costs.
For users of CS3 or lower, we offer a Quark to InDesign file conversion service. Email sales AT markzware DOT com for more details.
Here is a video demonstration of Q2ID v5.5 in action and it costs only $199€ -
Friendly Regards,
David Dilling

  • How can I open quarkxpress 8 files with indesign?

    Hi, prior to purchasing CC a sales person whom I spoke with using online chat confirmed that InDesign would open QuarkXpress files and a plugin was already in the application.
    I can't open any quark files from InDesign. Can this be done without purchasing a third party plug-in?
    Thanks in advance

    InDesign can natively open Quark 4.x and 3.x files only. To open anything
    later you’ll need a copy of Q2ID from Markzware.

  • I have Photoshop CS5 and a Nikon D 810 camera.  I have downloaded Camera Raw 8.8 & DNG converter.  I can neither open the raw files (.nef), nor process them with the DNG converter. What is going wrong?

    This is the last paragraph from my very first response to you, post #1 in this thread:
    …Additionally, you need to install the DNG Converter, not just "download" it, and you need to launch it and run it on each folder of NEFs you wish to convert to raw DNGs.  [emphasis added]

  • Just upgraded to 10.8.4 and now can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7

    i've just upgraded to os 10.8.4 and now i can't open canon raw files in photoshop cs5 with camera raw plug in 6.7 which worked perfectly prior to the upgrade....anyone else encountered this issue?

    Adobe's software is a mess in terms of the fact that it's sprayed all over the place and may not survive an OS upgrade.  Try reinstalling Photoshop CS5.

  • InDesign CS5 (Mac OS 10.6) can not open its own file

    I need guidance to open an artwork file that in one hour I have to send to the print shop. InDesign refuses to open its own file.
    Any clue? Adobe, please help.

    Re: InDesign CS5 (Mac OS 10.6) can not open its own file
    Bob and Peter
    Thank your for helping us out. It was really necessary to ask a coworker to open the file and export it in InDesign markup language.
    Three hours later than expected, but it's done!
    We are stuck here. I'm a Master Collection user of CS5, using only Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Bridge and Acrobat Pro. (I don't know why I bought the Master's). My coleague former Window user, got a Mac in May and downloaded the trial version of Design Studio Standard Collection of CS5.5. Before expiring, we purchased its license and filled it in the active trial version.
    A couple of months ago we noticed that were missed Plug Ins on his version and contacted Adobe who instructed us to download the whole files again. We never did because it is a pain to get rid of the missing parts of a pre installed trial version etc.
    I will ask Adobe to send a CD disk for his version.
    Regards,
    Junia

  • Can CS5 open CS 5.5 files?

    Can I open 5.5 files (InDesign specifically, but others too) in CS5?

    You’re not likely to find experts in every program in this forum. If you want to sit around and wait, feel free but I suspect this has already been addressed in every forum anyway. Do a little reading in them and see what you can find out.

  • I can't open the RAW files from my new Nikon D4s camera in photoshop? How do I download the latest software for RAW files?

    I can't open the RAW files from my new Nikon D4s camera in photoshop? How do I download the latest software for RAW files? Cheers!

    What version of Photoshop are you running?  You will need at CS5, CS6, CC or CC2014.  Each version needs a different ACR-plug-in to open files from that camera.
    If you are on CS4 or earlier, you'll need to upgrade—or, in the alternative; look for, download, instal, launch and run the free, stand-alone DNG Converter 8.6 on each file of raw NEF files to convert them to raw DNGs first so you can open them in your version of Photoshop and ACR plug-in higher than 2.4.

  • I' can't open images or files with trial version of Photoshop cc

    I' can't open images or files with trial version of Photoshop cc. Photoshop starts, it seems ok, but don't work.
    Illustrator cc works very well. Why?

    1. I open Photoshop cc Trial version
    2. I click "continues with the trial version" (in italian version)
    3. File>Open> psd (cs5) or jpeg files
    I can't even open a new document. (File>New> etc..)
    All files can be opened by Paint, Ilustrator etcc.  Only Photoshop doesn't work.
    I just see this

  • Nikon D800 can't open all RAW-files ending .NEF

    Got a Nikon D800 and can't open all RAW-files ending .NEF Most of them no problem, but some I just can't.
    "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model" Thats not wight cause I can open like 90% of my .NEF files :/
    Got latest Camera Raw (6.7)..Help please:/

    Because many of the camera makers slightly alter their versions of their raw format whenever they release a new camera model.
    Nikon does it, Canon does it, and also several other camera makers.
    There is not a single version of NEF that all Nikon cameras use, nor a single version of CR2 for all Canon models.
    Here is a list of supported cameras and the required ACR plugin needed to open the raw files.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Versions of ACR are specific to each version of Photoshop.
    Older versions of PS cannot use the latest version of ACR.
    You need to download the latest version of Adobe DNG Converter.
    This will convert your newer D800 files to DNGs that can then be opened in older versions like CS5.
    Be aware DNG only works on folders of files, not individual files. Select the FOLDER not a single file

  • __Is anyone else having CS5 open the last file automatically (whether they want it or not)?

    Is anyone else having CS5 open the last file automatically (whether they want it or not)? - some of the time it appears this causes a crash as well!
    Is there a way to turn this off?

    I betcha you are a recent convert to Lion!
    It's a system wide "preference"; fortunately, there is an option somewhere in your System Preferences (*not* Illustrator's) to switch this totally annoying, bug-infested, problem causing "new improved what-the-xxxx-were-they-thinking" new feature off.
    I did that SO fast after installing Lion, I can't even recall where to change it. I NEVER ever want it back ON again, so no loss there.

  • How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?

    How can I open a cc2014 file in my cs6 version of Indesign ?
    I have several files that has been saved in a cc2014 version and I can't open them in my CS6 version of Indesign.
    I don t have access to anyone who have the cc 2014 version to convert the file.
    How can I do it from my cs6 version?
    THANKS!

    You can't do it from CS6.
    You have to export to IDML from InDesign CC2014 (or whatever the version it was created in) and then open the IDML in the earlier versoin of InDesign.
    All explained in the FAQ on the main forum page.

  • I can't open a pdf file since updating to firefox 4.0. I have foxit reader installed and it worked before. Adobe is not compatible with Firefox. What do I need to do. I need to file my income tax online and can't because of this issue

    Just can't open any pdf files. Having no luck trying to fix myself.

    For Firefox users, there might be a built in pdf viewer, or a preferred viewer that handles pdf files.
    I am not having any trouble logging in, so lets try this:
    * Remove any cookies from the cache: [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer]]
    *[[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]] if there is stored user data that is removed in this process: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
