The way that this works in QuarkXPress 2016 is simple: you import a page of your PDF document onto a page in your document, then convert that PDF ‘image’ into native objects. It is not a stress test, nor a comparison with those plug-ins and other tools: I wanted to see how well this new feature works, and whether I can rely on it in the future. This article describes my initial experience working with a few PDFs. It saves the couple of hundred dollars paying for a plug-in, and should be much better to use. When you search for an old project and can only come up with a PDF copy, you can expect to have to spend a long time working with conversion tools to try to turn that PDF into something that you can work with.įor my money, one of the most important new features in QuarkXPress 2016 is its ability to turn imported PDF pages into native objects, which you can then edit and rework. Unfortunately, it was never designed to enable you to reconstitute an original, editable version from its files. For better or worse, Adobe’s PDF has become the de facto standard for most electronic archival and many other purposes.
