No, it's more than those 3. The last two on your mini-list would be enough for others here that do books.

Lack of Pantone support is enough for me. Not to mention other things.

But there are...

I belive Xara applications are conditionally compiled. While they could work from the bottom up, it would make more sense to work top down. Regardless of release schedule.

No. Maybe. I don't know what all P&LD encompasses.

I think an XDP without web stuff is what I am looking for. If that means P&GD combined with the apparently dead (or languishing) P&LD, then fine....

P&GD has limited print work appeal. It is getting better, but it isn't there yet.

I already do a certain amount of this in my normal work-flow. Not so much because stuff is missing per se, but because Xara hasn't updated many of its export (and import) filters for some time. And...

Kate,

the procedure for adding bleed marks is arcane. I have written about it since I began using version 6 (my first version). Bleed itself is defined in the Options dialog. And bleed does get...

Thank you, Kate.

It's not "our particular usage" per se. It is non-web usage in the main and in part all the emphasis on bitmap filters, the online content, Online Designer collaboration, etc,...

Now that's funny!

Well, they produced them for 30 years. Not a bad run at all. And yep, they abandoned the codebase and in so doing ended improvements.

What exactly do you think the reason Xara doesn't pump out...

And if there is any need to reinstall, one looses the updates—which includes bug fixes—from the beginning of the original purchase...at least unless Xara/Magix figures out a means of separating fixes...

Hi Phillip,

Read through the whole thing ;^)

All I wanna add is, hey, another UE user! I've been using it from version 1 when Ian was selling it as shareware. I could not imagine coding or...

Ernie's post is 100% correct.

Yes, monitors can/do display differently. Even calibrated monitors. And calibration needs to be done periodically. Even the light in a room affects color on both...

Using a phone, it's difficult to also see the drivel I wrote while typing...

But a for instance as regards print on all plates. My main need for this is doing screen printing. So I stack my...

How's inserting text into a shape working for ya, Cliff?

There are plenty of design-side things as regards layout and presentation that could still be rolled in over time. Quicker than what they...

What happens if you need to reinstall for any reason if one doesn't renew? What about the updated capabilities and possibly bug fixes? As of yet, Kate indicated at one point they haven't really...

It's going to be an 8-bit image in a PDF if the intent is for print no matter what is used. N-color is partially supported (spot colors) but not completely in place. 16-bit RIPs are near non-existent...

I have an use one (or more) of 3 different image editors on any given day. So the November update wasn't something I would have written home about as that function (image editing) was about the only...

Ok, everyone, once more with feeling ... ;))

Gary, with all due respect, I do not think one can divorce features--or the lack thereof--from the so-called 365 Update Guarantee. That is what the...

Adobe products have incomplete OT Feature support, cannot process some OT Features and fail on yet others.

As a part-time font designer, I need to create bodges for AI and ID to support features,...

That's what it'll take to make me happy, though!

And, unlike the funky paragraph styles, I really hope when OT Features come that they will be implemented in an intuitive manner. (CD is about the...

With a single 365 update, there really wasn't any difference unless one makes web sites.

I don't know if XDP will see another update before the anniversary or not. But even so, it would take OT...

If one has to reinstall and the Xara product reverts back to as-purchased, one also cannot access content that was then current. At least from what I can ferret out in the mainly non-answers. Kate or...

I am one who is not underestimating XOD. It is simply something that I will never use.

I use text, and in applications that support them, I use OT Features. I use drawing tools. I make print...

I think that AD is the application with the most promise in the vector realm. InkScrape is painful, a thing built by committee. AI is fine when augmented by plug-ins (especially the Astute ones)....

The Wish list here is still a viable option isn't it? Strikes me I did the survey while being anonymous.

How many responses on the survey were for OT Feature support?

Quark publishes the result...
