QuarkXTensions

End of life for Xdata, Xcatalog, Xtags

We stopped supporting our QuarkXTensions in 2021, but we wanted to make the final versions available for anyone who’s still depending on them. We encourage anyone in that situation to move to InDesign where the equivalent plugins are very much alive (and we can provide discounts for such a move).

We no longer sell these XTensions, so here are no-cost licenses for each XTension that should work indefinitely.

Below are the downloads for the final releases. But first, some warnings.

Critical caveats

  • These XTensions are unsupported.
  • These Xtensions do not work with QuarkXPress 2024 or later. They may appear to load, but will eventually crash badly.(Quark changed some internal structures in 2024, which broke our final releases.)
  • Mac-based users must not update their systems beyond macOS 13 (Ventura) since QuarkXPress 2023 is not supported under macOS 14 (Sonoma) or higher.
