We're very happy to announce that Xtags 8.3.2 is now officially
released and available for download (6 & 7.3.2 as well):
<http://emsoftware.com/products/xtags/download>.
This is a free upgrade (what were we thinking!?! ;-) if you're already
using the latest Xtags 6 or 7. You can simply install the new version
and keep working--you're not even prompted for a new serial number.
(We tried to make it as painless as possible.)
Otherwise, you can upgrade at our usual great discount (62.5% off the
full-product price):
<http://emsoftware.com/products/xtags/buy>.
The history page <http://emsoftware.com/products/xtags/history/#QuarkXPress
> gives all the details, but here are some highlights of the release:
* QuarkXPress 8.x support (as well as 6.x and 7.x)
* Massive (10X) speed-up when importing unanchored boxes (almost back
to XPress 4.x speeds! ;-)
* Box background blend support
* Rotation, skew, runaround and various flags supported in "version 2"
anchored boxes (&tb2, &pb2, &nb2)
* Support for shrinking-to-fit text boxes horizontally as well as
vertically, and for shrinking-to-fit multiple column text boxes
* Support for box background and frame opacity settings (7 or 8 only)
* New "none" box creation tag
* and dozens more smaller enhancements and bug fixes
Cheers!
