After years of quietude, Quark launched the latest edition of its design software, Quark Express 8. The software features a sleek new interface, typographical control elements, Web and Flash tools, and much more.

As someone with a publication-design background, I'm skeptical as to how Quark Express 8 would offer more than the Adobe Suite. One feature that might help: You won't have to switch from several different tools to make designs, like you must in Adobe. This is done through the picture content tool, which allows you to grab, rotate, and scale images in real-time, and an item tool and a text content tool.
