About the QXD file type:

If Windows cannot find the appropriate program associated with .QXD files, then your registry may have errors. Check your Windows registry for errors (includes file association errors).

The QXD file extension is associated with the files created using the QuarkXPress version 5 application, as well as its predecessors. The QuarkXPress application is used to create different complex layouts for printing. This application is also similar to Adobe's applications. This program can be installed on Windows and Mac Operating Systems. However, the system has to conform to the application's system requirements before it can be successfully installed.

The QuarkPress application is developed by Quark. It was developed in the late 80s when its first version, the QuarkXPress 1 program was created only for Mac support. In the later part of 1992, the QuarkXPress 3.1 application, the first version compatible with Windows Operating System, was introduced. The QXD file extension has then become the default file extension for all the files created using the QuarkXPress version 5 application and lower. However, upon the release of the next version, the file extension was changed to the QXP file extension.
