Canto has announced updates to its Quark integration tools, used to support various Quark programs within Cumulus 7.6, its digital asset management suite. The software organises and shares numerous kinds of content, such as photos and "Office" documents. The latest versions of QXP Companion, QXP Server Companion and QPS Companion add support for QuarkXPress 8, QuarkXPress Server 8 and Quark Publishing System 7.6 or 8.

These updates let users drag material in and out of Cumulus catalogs, making it possible to find elements for use in QuarkXPress projects, and deconstruct the contents of projects that are already finished or in progress. QPS Companion lets users check in Quark files through Cumulus, and generate PDF files using Quark layouts. Buyers must contact Canto for prices.
