One of the limitations of QuarkXPress, the pagination program
for the Macintosh, is that it can generate four-color
separations only from elements it creates or from graphics
created in Adobe Illustrator and Aldus Freehnad.
 
Now, a company called Pre-Press says its Quark extension, ,
solves this problem. SpectreSeps QX lets you input images from a
color scanner and create a four-color separation with a
PostScript imagesetter. If you don't have a scanner, you can use
an image file done at a service bureau and place the image with
Quark's ``Get Picture'' command.
 
The extension is scheduled to ship in November 1989, according
to the company, and will require a Mac SE/30 or II with color
capability, 1 megabyte of memory, and QuarkXPress 2.11 or
higher.
 
Price: $295.
