The Math Grabber XTensions module to QuarkXPress allows you to perform mathematical calculations on numerical text appearing anywhere in a QuarkXPress document. Like all of the Grabbers, Math Grabber uses our unique Marquee method of text selection which makes working with tabular material (such as price charts or financial tables) incredibly fast and easy.

For example, assume you need to decrease all prices in a column by 15% (see sample chart below). To do so, just click on the Math Grabber tool, drag a marquee around the price column you wish to change, enter the discount and click OK. Math Grabber scans the selected area, calculates the new amounts, and inserts the resulting values automatically.

Limitations:
If running a Grabber in demo mode, the changes made to the document cannot be saved.

Requirements:
QuarkXPress 4 or later.
