I wanted to know some other programs that might open up a .QXD file?

Adobe Photoshop 7 will also open these.

Photoshop 5.5 won't (at least not the educational version).

You are going to find the going difficult here.

Quark is an expensive and very proprietary product (also a very good one) geared toward the high end graphics market. No standard programs are going to work with it (Word, Works, etc). There is a QuarkXpress Converter application available to convert quark files to be used in Adobe's Pagemaker software if you have access to that. It does not do seamless conversions and does not work cross-platform, but it will do a pretty good job of porting the file for you. It is included with newer versions of Pagemaker and is available from Adobe's website ( www.adobe.com )

If you can contact the person creating the quark files, you should be able to ask that they supply them in a different format that you can view...perhaps .pdf, .eps, etc.

Good luck...hope this helps.
