Are you struggling with an editorial workflow and correction process that includes handwritten comments, manual changes, and double or even triple review cycles to ensure that all changes have been made? QuarkCopyDesk® can help authors and proofreaders to paste texts directly into the final QuarkXPress layout (copyfit). This eliminates the need for redundant work and failure risks, leading to a more efficient production process.

There are different employees involved in your publishing process, Such as authors, editors, proofreaders, designers, and production managers. While some people use word processing tools, your designers and production managers use QuarkXPress. If your workflow is to send files via e-mail and manually update the files from the word processing in your layouts, then slow down your publishing process.
Optimize your workflow with QuarkCopyDesk
You can optimize your publishing process by introducing QuarkCopyDesk into your production environment. QuarkCopyDesk is a desktop application that is seamlessly integrated with Quark Publishing Platform. With QuarkCopyDesk, authors, editors, proofreaders, and other non-design workers can create, edit, and correct their content from the perspective of the page layout designer so that everyone can see the final layout.
With QuarkCopyDesk, the authors can compose texts that fit perfectly into the layout, eliminating the need for numerous text and design adjustments. Users of QuarkCopyDesk can view and edit texts that they have already inserted into the QuarkXPress layout. Comments and changes are forwarded with the QuarkCopyDesk article and are visible to all, which improves the communication of the team members. Users of QuarkCopyDesk can also edit images.
Users of QuarkCopyDesk can check out and check in files from Quark Publishing Platform or the respective content management system. The system is a central storage for all content, while managing the creative process, file routing, and version control. By incorporating authors, editors, and other people with no design knowledge into the layout and production workflow within a single system, you can speed up the entire publishing process, avoid errors, and better comply with spend times.
QuarkCopyDesk as an independent authoring tool
QuarkCopyDesk is an essential component of Quark Publishing Platform. However, the software can also be used individually as an independent tool for authors, editors and proofreaders in smaller production environments that use QuarkXPress for the page ending.
