My company are keen to have online questionnaires on several of their websites feeding into databases. Having no experience of SQL and .asp, I am unsure what to advise them. I have been involved in developing websites for some years now, but surprisingly, never at this level. I understand there...

THANK YOU, your help has been really appreciated.

Actually, I think by readers spread you mean set up like 1-12 as opposed to facing pages that go like this: 2-11 3-10 4-9 Am I right?

Thank you for your advice. How do I set up a file in readers spreads? I can't find it anywhere.

Hello I've been asked to design a 12 page A4 brochure. The trouble is, how do I layout the pages? Should it be 1 - 12 2 - 11 3 - 10 This shouldn't be a problem, except I need to insert some plans that run over 2 pages (eg. 8 and 9), which of course wouldn't be on the same piece of paper. Does...

Thank you blueark for your quick helpful reply!!!!!

On my verison of Quark 5, when you go to "save as" you get a drop down menu at the bottom which asks you which version you would like to save it as. Click on 4. Its always worked for me, as my printers uses Quark 4.

Hello, Any advice here would be greatly appreciated. I have a picture box in Quark 5, I want the top and sides of the box to be straight but the bottom to be curved. I know I could draw a picture box with the Bezier tool (but this is not one of my strengths). I have tried item > shape and...

Rickwells, Thank you for your reply. It makes sense now, I simply didn't know that images were stored separately (like a website). I have converted the files into EPS and inserted into Acrobat. This is much better. Thank you very much Jo

Hello. I am a new user of Quark (please excuse my dumbness). I imported Jpg and Tif files into my document and want to send this file over to the printers. All images are have a resolution of 600 and are quite big files (some up to 3MB). However, my final .qxd file is a mere 400KB. This can't be...

I am assuming that this has been discussed before (could not find it though) so apologies if this is a common question. I tend to avoid importing photographic images into Flash, simply because they look so bad when the movie is published. But now I have a simple logo (gif) of two colours that...

Thanks for your quick response. I have noticed a lot of users on here praising InDesign. Are you from the United States? Because I don't think InDesign is very big over here in the United Kingdom. All graphic design companies want employees with experience in Quark. Is it something that will...

I am teaching myself Quark at the moment and am very surprised with its limitations. Having known for years, Quark is every graphic designer’s essential tool, I was expecting a drawing/page layout package. I think I was wrong on the "drawing" side of things. And am assuming that Quark...

Two queries here really. Firstly, does anyone know the statistics of how many web users have the Flash plug-in installed? I am tempted to create Flash buttons in my new website, but don't want to make it inaccessible to those without the plug-in. Which leads me onto my second question, is there...

I am just starting Quark Xpress and as someone who has a web background (as opposed to print) am finding it hard to get to grips with. A very simple question, but I can not, for the life of me, work it out. Have created a shape with the Bezier tool, but how do you add colour to the inside? Am I...

Please help. I work as a designer, so please excuse my ignorance on technical issues. Today my company have told me that the server in which our websites are hosted are to be replaced with a Lotus Notes Server. (I believe the one we have at the moment is a Virtual server?) As a result of this, I...

My PC is a mess, and its about time I reformatted the hard drive. Trouble is my computer can't seem to get through Scandisk (even in Safe Mode - I use Windows) and it freezes 3/4 of the way through. I have been told that it is not a good idea to reformat your hard drive when there is obviously a...

I have had my monitor for 3 years, and the last 6 months it has been really playing up. I would just like some advice from people on whether its a "monitor" problem or something else. I get lines down the screen (similar to when a cell/mobile phone is next to it). These lines get so...

Is there a bug in Fireworks 3? I have a problem with optimizing medium to large images. Quite often I am given the alert "Could not complete your request. An internal error occurred". Did Macromedia ever produce a patch to correct this? The whole point of Fireworks is to be able to...

Please excuse me for asking a pretty simple and perhaps obviuos question. I have made a pdf file using Acrobat Writer 5 to be included on a website. My client is not happy because most of their customers only have Acrobat Reader 3 on their computers, and she says that they are unable to view my...
