Several books later, Blatner and two other QuarkXPerts have written QuarkXPress Tips & Tricks, Second Edition . It's a collection of the best tips, tricks, and industrial strength techniques from scores of users all over the world, gathered from online services, meetings and conferences, and letters and interviews.

Other topics include color, style sheets, and XPress Tags. Plus the book includes an extensive chapter to help troubleshoot any problems encountered. The last two chapters cover XPress for Windows and older versions of XPress. Many tips are broken out into instructions; others just give a succinct explanation of some secret, unknown feature. Dozens of black and white and color illustrations complement and clarify the text. This edition is a full rewrite and redesign of the book. It now covers the latest version of QuarkXPress and includes more than one hundred new and undocumented tips, tricks, and techniques for getting the most out of this program.Blatner, David is the author of 'QuarkXPress Tips and Tricks: Industrial-Strength Techniques/Book and CD-ROM - David Blatner - Paperback' with ISBN 9781566091374 and ISBN 1566091373.
