- Moving EPS files is not always easy. Actually there are some subtle
- differences (like EPSF on a MAC is not EPSI on Unix). In the case of Quark
- files, I don't know that Quark has made public its specs for output files.
- If they did then a Quark Xtension might be able to take a Quark file and
- save it as some other kind of file. Also, a PageMaker Addition could read in
- a Quark file. Unfortunately, this is probably a doomed exercise since there
- are probably some things that a Quark file can have that aren't "realizable"
- in other file formats (and vice versa I'm sure).
- When importing to Illustrator you have to be sure to Import EPS files and
- not just open them.
