MARKZWARE ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF MARKZTOOLS 5

SANTA ANA, California – February 6, 2003 – Markzware has announced the release of MarkzTools 5. MarkzTools is an XTension that can be used to prevent corrupted QuarkXPress documents, overcoming the dreaded “bad file format [70], [39], and [108].”

You can verify your saved documents, so you will immediately know when the integrity of your file is suspect. Furthermore, you can first save a temporary copy of your document before saving the original document, so that in the event something goes wrong during the “save” process, you will still have the temporary file availability for recovery.

In the case of a badly corrupted file in which the page layout data cannot be salvaged, the “scavenge text” feature may extract text stories from a document file. MarkzTools 5 alers you whenever you’re about to save a lower version document to a higher version. It also makes QuarkXPress backwards compatible, allowing you to open higher version documents.
The “gray previews” features allows you to convert your full color picture previews into gray pictures, greatly reducing the file size on your hard drive. MarkzTools 5 supports QuarkXPress 4.1 to 5.x and the languages supported are English, French and German.

The MSRP of MarkzTools 5 is $199. There is an upgrade fromMarkzTools III available for $99.
