Quark Inc. today announced the availability of a bundle that combines the company’s flagship page layout application QuarkXPress with Macromedia Inc.’s own FreeHand MX illustration and layout application. For a limited time customers can buy the bundle for US$999, or $445 less than both applications purchased separately.
QuarkXPress 6, Quark’s first Mac OS X-native version, provides users with the page layout environment that so many desktop publishing professionals are familiar with. FreeHand MX adds the ability to design illustrations, organize content, lay out storyboards, and develop click-through presentations. Both are available for Mac OS X and Windows.
The bundle is being offered exclusively through participating resellers. Lists will be posted to Quark and Macromedia’s Web sites. The offer expires March 31, 2004.
