Yasir,

I think I know an answer to your question. What I often do is print the map to
a printerfile. I select a specific Postscript-printer and in the properties I
choose an Encapsulated Postscript file (EPS) and I select the tic-box 'print
to file'. You will get a .prn file, but rename it to .eps and this one you can
import in Publisher.

I hope this will help you a bit further.

Regards,
Patrick van der Deijl
