Fred,

The simple answer is yes.

The more detailed answer...

Publisher 2003's "save as" file formats include unicode text, postscript,
plaintext, HTML, RTF, MS Works, MS Word 97-2003 doc, gif, jpg,, tif, png,
bmp, wmf

Which objects in the pub document get "converted" is determined on the file
format you choose, and the specific design/layout of the document, and the
file formats of the objects embedded within or linked to the document..

If all you want to do is read the text content then the text, RTF or MS Word
formats are likely  good choices. You will likey lose some (or a lot) of the
layout information and the graphical objects.
