I think you can still download a trial copy of Publisher, then capture the content through cut-and-paste into a document in OOo. Writer and Draw both have capabilities that might satisfy your requirements, depending on what you need to accomplish. A quick Google search also turned up another possible solution, though I have no experience with it: http://blog.zamzar.com/2008/01/25/convert-ms-publisher-files-pub-files-to-do c-pdf-odt-rtf-and-more/ Note the reference to odt -- that is the format native to Writer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help
