• Mac OS X only: QuarkXPress quit unexpectedly when you double-clicked a library that was saved on a mounted drive. This issue has been resolved. GetPageName XTensions software returned an incorrect page name when you modified section properties. This issue has been resolved
• Using the "Create missing pages" feature of Future Proof Beacon XTensions software caused QuarkXPress to quit unexpectedly. This issue has been resolved.
