Quark Names Raymond Schiavone CEO
Graphic design software company Quark Inc. named a new president and CEO, more than a year after the job was abruptly vacated. Raymond Schiavone most recently was president and CEO of publishing software company Arbortext Inc.
The privately held Denver company, which is known for its desktop software program, announced in June 2005 that CEO Kamar Aulakh had left the company. Aulakh’s tenure as head of the company was short-lived; he became CEO in February 2005.
No reason was given for Aulakh’s departure, and the responsibility of running the company fell on an interim basis to Linda Chase, senior vice president of commerce product development.
With the announcement of Schiavone’s arrival, Chase will continue in her previous role.
Markzware Announces InDesign to QuarkXPress 7
Markzware, developer of preflighting, data extraction and conversion software, is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the conversion utility ID2Q7, InDesign To QuarkXPress for versions 6.x through 7.
According to Jay Nelson, editor of Design Tools Monthly: “ID2Q solves a giant problem for many design studios. Being able to open an InDesign document in QuarkXPress makes it possible for those who tried InDesign but prefer QuarkXPress to salvage the projects they created in InDesign. It vastly increases page layout options for the entire industry.”
