How to Export Pages as JPGs or PNGs Out of QuarkXPress
The “Export Pages as Images” feature in QuarkXPress 8 lets you export entire pages or spreads as an image file. For a quick overview of how and why to use this feature, check out the two-minute video here.
(The short version: choose File> Export Pages as Images and have fun. Use the resulting images in promotional pieces and Web pages. It’s a heck of a lot faster than exporting the pages as EPS or PDF, opening in Photoshop, then saving each page as JPG!)
Note: this trick requires Quark’s free Image Exporter XTension. Read more about it here, and download it here.
If you want to export only the pictures from a Layout, see this tip.
