CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 1 review)

PLEASE READ this before using Quark Xpress!  
Since Quark Xpress 6 is a professional and an expensive program, you really need to utilize the program to its maximum. And having a good guidebook like "Quark Xpress 6 Bible" is crucial. I think this book does an amazing job of taking beginners step by step to familiarizing the program. It starts from how to create new document to really specific and not-so-commonly-used tools. Also, this book tells us useful shortcuts which can be convenient.

This book never assumes that you know a certain function or where a palette is. That is important because beginners like me are burdened with so many new things and having these things refreshed over and over really helps.

Honestly, I don't understand reviewers who complain about this book. What more can you expect from a book? Unless you get an online tutorial with movie clips that show you where everything is, it is impossible to get a more comprehensive tutorial about the program. Seriously, this book teaches so much and even has lots of example that you can get inspirations from and possibly incorporate in YOUR future layout.

Regardless of what your ultimate purpose is, this is good for beginners as well as more proficient users. Easy to understand and also quite affordable.
