Current versions may creat a QX bundle file on MacOS, which is a multi-file directory.

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.

Versions

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