Quark today disclosed the key features for its forthcoming QuarkXPress 6 application. "Used by millions of publishing professionals around the world to improve efficiency, QuarkXPress software dramatically improves productivity, saves time, and lowers costs. The new features in QuarkXPress 6 will continue to drive production efficiencies in the face of tight budgets and increasingly tight deadlines."
-"The new Synchronized Text feature lets users share content between layouts in a QuarkXPress 6 project. When synchronized text is edited in one place, corresponding text elsewhere in the project will be changed simultaneously. "

Sorry to say but I think the case for Xpress is "too little, too late." Many publishers etc. have moved to the Adobe platform now, and I doubt this program is going to offer enough for them to switch back, but for those who have held out on updating to OS X because of Xpress, the time is near.
