A client of mine has a couple of QX5 files that he wants me to improve. Unfortunately, I only have InDesign CS5 and, apparently, it can only import Quark files up to v4.
Anyone here able to convert QX5 files into something ID CS5 can work with? Or, perhaps, simply taking the QX5 files and converting them to PDF? That would work for me, too.
TIA!

I don't have any QXP 5 files to test but can export as pdf under QXP6 with no problem. Feel free to contact me.

Thanks!
Definitely, shelling-out $200 for the Markzware plugin is out of the question. We're talking about two lone QX files, afterall. I'll PM you when the client sends me the files and see if you can work some magic.

Quark ... a once great design app that died as result of their indolent and arrogant overlords. *Sigh*

So Thorzdad, have you solved this issue.?
BTW, some Californian Equity firm has bought Quark.
Dear Loyal Customer:
I am writing to share some fantastic news with you: Platinum Equity, a California-based private equity firm, has acquired Quark. This is a substantial step forward in the evolution of our business and one that we have been working toward for some time, because we know that it will provide new benefits to our customers and partners.
This transition comes at an exciting time for our company and our customers. Since I joined in 2006, we have made great strides in helping our customers realise dynamic publishing, have re-invigorated QuarkXPress, and have readied Quark to take an early leadership position in digital publishing.
As a global investment firm, Platinum Equity is well-positioned to help us continue to execute our dynamic publishing vision through their market reach, merger and acquisition experience, and operational support. Just as importantly, the firm shares Quark’s commitment to our customers. This is the natural next step in Quark’s evolution.
On behalf of the entire Quark team, I want to thank you once again for the relationship we have built and for your continued confidence in our capabilities. We look forward to earning that trust each and every day.
Should you have any questions at all, please e-mail us. We hope you’ll share the confidence and excitement that we have for this new chapter for Quark, our customers, and our partners.
Regards,
Ray Schiavone
Quark President and CEO

Yeah. Sorry about not following up. The client dug around and found some pdfs of the files, and I was able to re-create them using those. Not ideal, but it worked.
Interesting about Quark. Ray doesn't really say anything tangible about Quark's future, though, does he? The "...and have readied Quark to take an early leadership position in digital publishing." bit is pretty funny. Early leadership position? The train left the station a long time ago, Ray.
I bet quark is gone completely in three years, tops.
