Span Text Across Columns with ColuMaker
Gluon’s ColuMaker is an XTension for QuarkXPress 9 that provides some very useful tricks for working with columns. You can use it to span a headline across multiple columns in a text box, break out a selection of text in one column into a sub-column, or convert multiple columns in one text box into separate linked text boxes.
ColuMaker is available as part of Gluon’s $219 ProPack 9, which also includes 11 additional XTensions that dramatically increase your productivity.
Gluon has versions of ProPack for QuarkXPress 7, 8 and 9. Read our earlier story about ProPack 8 here: “Gluon ProPack 8: The most valuable set of XTensions you can buy“.
