Quark Alliance developers are also testing their XTensions software for QuarkXPress 7 on Windows Vista.

According to Quark, many are expected to follow Quark's lead in officially announcing support for the new operating system, including Extensis, which released a Windows Vista compatible version of its font management system, Suitcase, in February.

Terry Welty, Quark's senior vice president of corporate marketing, said: "This important update for QuarkXPress 7 demonstrates our continuing commitment to graphic designers and production professionals on the Windows platform.

Customers will benefit from the combined user interface enhancements of both products, such as the ability to drag and drop images from the Windows photo gallery directly in to QuarkXPress 7.

In addition, users with Windows Vista will be able to take advantage of the unique new features of QuarkXPress 7, such as picture effects and composition zones." Dave Wascha, director of Windows Marketing for Microsoft, added: "With new innovations, such as the Windows Colour System, XPS printer support and the Windows Imaging Components, Windows Vista is the natural choice for creative professionals.

We recognise QuarkXPress 7 as a powerful tool that turns ideas in to stunning output through seamless integration with Windows Vista." Martin Stein, vice president of corporate solutions for Extensis, a Quark Alliance partner, said: "Our testing is well underway and we're looking forward to Quark's release of QuarkXPress 7 for Windows Vista.

Extensis, with QuarkXPress 7 on Windows Vista, provides users with the robust design and production environment they've been seeking.".
