    Any known issues with OSX v.10.3 and Quark Express 6.5?

    I have just upgraded my G5 to Mac OSX 10.3 - now I can not open any of my Quark Express 6.5 files? Any info would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    I'm running Quark 6.5 on OSX 10.3 just fine (that is, as well as Quark will run)

    What exactly happens when you try to open the documents (either by double-clicking or by selecting them with Quark's "Open" command)?

    Well, usually it tells me that I'm missing fonts and that I should purchase them on the internet. If I have the fonts it opens just like it does in 6 and 4.(I don't have 5)

    That sounds pretty normal -- although it should still open the document with missing fonts -- the text of the missing fonts should just default to another font, like Monaco or something...

    Strange... what kind of font management are you using? Suitcase? FontReserve? FontBook? Or are you just dragging and dropping fonts into the ~/Library/Fonts folder?

    Are the fonts True Type?
