I doubt that the Publisher file format is freely-available, so they
may have trouble opening the files with anything other than Publisher.
I ran into this problem with Visio a while ago.

Scribus is a great DTP package, free in cost and source. It will open
standard PostScript and PDF files, so if they can get their sender to
convert and retransmit, they could be in business. Assuming Microsoft
outputs standard PostScript or PDF. Ha, ha.
