Why can't use Microsoft publisher files in openoffice
It's because it's a proprietary file format, which Microsoft hasn't
revealed. As far as I know, only Publisher can open those files.
Hopefully, MickySoft will go one step further with their 'Microsoft Open
Specification Promise' @
http://www.microsoft.com/interop/osp/default.mspx and release the
Publisher specs also. So far they have only released the specs for the
Office binary file formats which include: Word's doc files, Excel's xls
files, and PowerPoint's ppt files. Publisher's files are missing from
their 'Promise' and are still a mystery as not a thing has been released
on that format.
