InDesign opens Quark and PageMaker files
Comment by gpenston on February 13, 2002
Yes, Adobe has an pretty good scheme for Quark (and PageMaker) converts. You simply open your Quark document directly within InDesign. The conversion process isn't perfect. Maybe 90-95% there. I would say there will be some spot checking always needed and it depends on how well you structure your Quark docs in the first place. But no, you won't need to have both open or redo all your work.
Debabelizer and Slices

"Perhaps George Penston relied solely on Debabelizer, but many of us found Debabelizer to be bulky, overpriced, and inefficient. "
A How-to is a how-to.

I honestly intended this article to be a how-to. In hopes that people that are using Photoshop, ImageReady, and GoLive would benefit. My column features are based on Adobe software predominately. I write them hoping they inform and benefit the interested user. I believe all software has its merits and downsides and to each his or her own.
Re: History is not a replacement for good masking
Comment by gpenston on May 17, 2000
I just wanted to point out that I totally agree with Rudder. The History Brush by no means should replace the many other tools and operations Photoshop provides for masking images. But for a down and dirty silo that is much more interactive than other tools, I wanted to offer up an example just to get users thinking of the many ways they could exploit the History Brush.
