Markzware announces MarkzTools 7

Markzware, the leading developer of preflighting, data extraction and conversion software, announces the release of MarkzTools 7 for Mac that works with QuarkXPress 7.

MarkzTools is a utility that serves as “document insurance” as well as salvaging corrupted QuarkXPress project files. MarkzTools is used as an active XTension that verifies the integrity of QuarkXPress documents before the original master file is over-written. This invaluable XTension prevents unwanted disasters from occurring, for instance a bad file that cannot be opened for editing.

Additional functionality MarkzTools provides is allowing users to save QuarkXPress 7 Projects directly to a Quark 4.1 document format! What’s more, it can convert all of the image previews in the document to “gray” drastically reducing the file size of projects.

MarkzTools 7 sells for USD$199.
