QuarkXPress 8 - One Day Creating Interactive Content Training Course— Bespoke

Building on the successful response to Quark Interactive Designer (launched shortly after Quark 7) Quark Systems have fully integrated this product into QuarkXPress 8. Designers will be able to use QuarkXPress to create documents, not only for print and web output, but for interactive content using the in-built Flash authoring tools and without additional expense.

Working in a familiar layout, designers can create interactive presentation that include buttons, image sequences, rollovers, sound and video clips. The final document can be integrated easily and intuitively in a web page created within QuarkXPress or output as a SWF, Window Projector or Mac Projector file.

This one-day course is designed for existing users of QuarkXPress who wish to extend their skills into this new and exciting media.
