But.. I/we have a pretty big client who places PDFs into Quark.... I HAVE to open in Acrobat > Save as .ps > drop on Distiller as PDF 1.3 and update links in Quack and it works perfect 99.999% of the time. If I don't it will NOT RIP as it is supposed to,
Even still - as a "Major Player" in the pro page layout application game should be able to place and reliably output PDF. Period.
Pain in the ass..

Exactly Vee...that's my whole point. We prepress professionals have the tools and know how to make it work but Quarks majority of customers do not have the tools or the know how. I can keep fixing their jobs forever but they're going to get charged. If they were using InDesign they would not have to worry about it. Simple enough, huh?
To be fair though, I have customers using PageMaker that are having the same problems. The problem with Quark though is that it's customer base assume if they upgrade to Quark 7 everything is going to be okay...and it's not.
