Identifiers
Many file extensions have been reported: .qcd, .qct, .qpt, .qwd, .qwt, .qxb, .qxd, .qxl, .qxp, .qxt. More research may be needed to sort this out.
Identification
Files have "IIXPR" or "MMXPR" at offset 2.
QuarkXPress legacy documents (QuarkXPress 3, 4, 5 and 6) need to be converted to the new format (QuarkXPress 9.1) in order to be opened by QuarkXPress 10 and newer. Free software is available.

QuarkXPress file versions can be determined by offset 8 or 9[1].
