[paul_oshea]

Hi im looking for something like open office but for microsoft publisher that will open publisher files from microsoft and vice versa etc.

I want to be able develop in it but send it on to someone who can open it in microsoft publisher.

don't think there is an open source product that can read .pub files, there is a slight workaround here though: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=411085

You could convert the publisher file to a word document(doc, html, odt, pcx, pdf, png, ps, rtf, or txt) using Zamzar. You could then edit it and convert it back to a Publisher file
