E-mail technical support

Registered QuarkXPress customers can send questions or issues to technical support at any time. Typical response time to e-mail inquiries is within 24 hours. We offer a convenient online e-mail support form for registered users to submit issues.

QuarkXPress customers have two e-mail support plan options:

Single-incident plan: $15 — lets you correspond with a Quark technician to resolve a single technical support problem. Under this plan, correspondence continues until the problem is successfully resolved; it is not limited to a single submission and response.

1-year plan: $129 — gives you unlimited technical support through e-mail for 1 year from the date the plan is purchased.

QuarkCopyDesk is not covered under our e-mail support plan. See below for details on the available telephone support plans.
