Editing Quark (company) (section)

==Products==
Quark's first products were word processing software for the Apple II and Apple III.<ref name="quark.com"/> In 1987, it released its best known product, [[QuarkXPress]], for Apple Macintosh.  In 1992, it also released the product for [[Microsoft Windows]].

In the 1990s, QuarkXPress 3.x gained around 90% market share of page layout applications. Its editorial workflow system, called [[Quark Publishing System]], sold almost a thousand times to magazines and newspapers.

The company announced a picture editing application, QuarkXPosure, which was never released, and a multimedia authoring add-on XTension for QuarkXPress, [[QuarkImmedia]]. Neither is part of Quark's portfolio anymore. The company briefly purchased and marketed a standalone multimedia authoring program, [[mTropolis]], before discontinuing it in the late 1990s.

Quark acquired two companies creating add-ons for QuarkXPress and InDesign, ALAP in 2005<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/Quark_Buys_ALAP/ |title=Quark Buys ALAP &#124; News |publisher=The Mac Observer |access-date=2012-03-15}}</ref> and Gluon in 2010.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|last=Spence |first=Nick |url=https://www.macworld.com/article/150441/2010/04/quark_gluon.html |title=Quark acquires Gluon assets |publisher=Macworld |access-date=2012-03-15}}</ref>
