: Help! Everyone is talking Quark this and Quark that. Wouldn't it make more sense to use Pagemaker if using other Adobe products ie: illustrator, photoshop...or is Quark that much superior?

Granted, the first versions of Pagemaker were klunky in comparison to QXP,

but it was a largely office-politics decision that

put QXP in the #1 spot. Pagemaker is what it says -

a page maker. QXP appeals to the typesetter. Since

Composition was where most DTP departments started,

rightly or wrongly (another major argument), their

choices prevailed in management's purchasing decision
