7 Quark Applications

7.1 QuarkXPress 3.32 for Windows

QuarkXPress 3.32 for Windows does not support ICC based color management.

Apply ICC proÞ les to your images in Adobe Photoshop and then place the separated

CMYK images in your QuarkXPress document. The color quality will be the same as

when being printed from Photoshop directly.

7.2 QuarkXPress 3.32 for Macintosh

and the Helios XTension

Color management with QuarkXPress 3.32 is possible with the ColorSync XTension

2.0 from Helios. This XTension allows to apply ICC proÞ les to RGB-, Lab-, and

CMYK-TIFF images placed in a QuarkXPress document for both printing and

prooÞ ng. Individual settings for every single image can be made. In addition, the

ColorSync XTension supports the deÞ nition of Lab colors and an ICC proÞ le based

output of these colors.

The basic workß ow will be described here. For more information refer to the very

good and extensive manual coming with the Helios XTension.

• Open QuarkXPress and your document with included TIFF images.

• Choose Utilities > ColorSync. A dialogue window appears to deÞ ne the

general printing conditions for the whole document and to apply a speciÞ c

source ICC proÞ le for every TIFF image in your document.

• Enable color management using the ColorSync 2 Matching Setup. For

viewing the result on the monitor select For Monitor and Printer.

7.2.1 Printer Settings

• For Printer ProÞ le select the appropriate printer ICC proÞ le for your paper

type and print mode.
