    This reminded me of an all-nighter I pulled 13 years ago while doing a trends-mag. QuarkXPress... We had the thing almost done; we were waiting for an ad and final copy check. Suddenly the fucker froze. We decided leaving it like that, went for a nap, and when we came back a couple hours later, it was still frozen... We had to force quit, and we lost the fucking file. We redid de mag from a pdf we had exported one day before. I remember I cried.

    • sounds like pure hell — had so many over the years like this one where things lock up, power goes out... cat literally chewed thru the power cord...PonyBoy
    • Quark, the app I've hated the most in my life. If possible, I'd avoid it and just use Freehand :)OBBTKN
