The QXP file extension is a project file created in the desktop publishing software QuarkXPress. It is a page layout application that integrates fully functional design tools into a streamlined workflow. It was highly popular among both professionals and amateur designers in the late nineties and early 2000s for its sophisticated features and accuracy.
Project Files
A QXP file can store a variety of information which is organized into separate layers for text, images, documents and other elements. It contains layout components such as master pages, fine control over text formatting, page numbering, printing options and multi-language support. There are also options to link files from external sources such as images, audio clips and other data. The project file also supports various font styles including TrueType fonts. As well as this, QXP files can also be converted to the Portable Document Format (PDF), PostScript formats (EPS) and HTML formats (HTML).
Other File Types
The QuarkXPress software is no longer developed or supported by its original creators. Although defunct, the QXP file extension is still considered to be one of the most reliable forms of data storage. The QuarkXPress project files can be opened natively with applications that support the similar file types like Adobe InDesign (INDD), PageMaker Pro (P65), BinHex Encoded Files (HQX), Framemaker MIF Files (MIF), and Ventura Publisher Documents (VAP).
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .QXP) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .QXP extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .QXP file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .QXP extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .QXP extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .QXP file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .QXP file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .QXP file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .QXP file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .QXP file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
