My searches noticeably found nothing better than this, this, this and this, nothing at all particularly better convincing with the best source only being the MacWorld (English and Spanish reviews from browsers). At best, it's still thin for solidity. SwisterTwister talk 07:59, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

• Merge to QuarkXPress, which presently has no mention of the topic. This will improve the merge target article, as per WP:PRESERVE. Some sources exist, such as those listed below, some of which I have added to the article, but the overall depth of coverage about the topic may not be enough to support a standalone article.

• Merge to QuarkXPress. Software article of borderline notability, given the RS Maclife article. The QuarkXPress 8 book is RS, but since it is primarily about the main product, does little to show that Quark Interactive Designer has notability independent of QuarkXPress.Dialectric (talk) 15:11, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
