GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – March 18, 2025 – Quark Software, the global provider of AI-powered content automation, intelligence, and design software, today announced Quark Publishing Platform (QPP) NextGen v4.3, its cloud-based CCMS platform that helps enterprises automate the production of their highly regulated or complex documentation, so they can approve and publish it faster, and stay compliant.
The latest release introduces advanced content rules and authoring controls which can be set at a granular level against documents, reducing the risk of formatting errors and non-compliance. In addition, tailored metadata forms enable the building of industry or use case-specific content template structures , and a more immersive content previewing experience helps organizations enforce content validation, enhance the collaborative experience, and drive workflow efficiency.
The new features and benefits available in QPP NextGen v4.3 include:
Granular Content Rules to Safeguard Compliance – Strengthened compliance controls restrict unauthorized actions such as deleting sections, merging table cells, editing or rejecting review comments, reformatting paragraph styles, and modifying citations. These safeguards reduce compliance risks, preserve content integrity, and ensure adherence to regulatory and organizational standards.
Tailored Tagging Experience for Complex Use Cases – A powerful user interface customization capability that allows enterprises to provide bespoke tagging experience, driven by complex business rules, for their end users. The latest update also introduces image resizing and the ability to link supporting documents, workflow diagrams, and compliance guardrails, enhancing content reuse opportunities.
Enhanced Content Previewing for Streamlined Reviews – Users can now maximize the preview pane, go full-screen, or resize it for better visibility. Expanded search functionality enables teams to quickly locate and reuse relevant content, improving content discovery and review workflows.
