Quark 6.5 and OS X 10.5

[LRob]

Is anybody having any problem? We are looking to upgrade, But I heard quark 6 and OSx10.5 don't jive.

Quark 6.5 doesn't seem to have many more issues than normal on my 10.5. Fonts are a bit of a pain. I always would get font might be bad error when printing but said go anyways and it always worked through our RIP. Since the upgrade, I still get the errors but it now errors out at my RIP. I have a work around but it's a pain.
Outside of that, it runs just as crappy as advertised.

I use it on 10.5 if I have to. It works as well (or as bad) as it did on 10.4.

It's supposed to run on a Power Mac emulator called Rosetta. Kinda like Classic under OS X. From what I've read, it really slows things down.

It runs natively on OS X (10.4 or 10.5) on a Power PC. It runs under Rosetta on 10.4 & 10.5 on an Intel Mac.

Cool thanks guys. We have a couple clients that wont move up to Quark 7 or even better Indesign , but this helps.

I actually only have a couple of clients that have moved up to Quark 7.  Most are transitioning to Indesign.  That's the way I prefer it.
