Can anybody convert 2 small pub files for me?

[Dave]

Hi, is there anybody who wants to convert 2 .pub files for me?
I have received 2 pub files I have to work with (90 kb and 180 kb), no idea
what version, i tried adobe Converter 1.0 for Microsoft Publisher 95 and 97
that didn't work. Googled for ways to convert, but that doesn't seem
possible.
Looked to download the trial version as a last option but
there only seems be a cd trialversion.
But I have to get it quickly, this weekend so i can do something with it.
If someone can convert it to pdf or text, (I believe it's only dutch text)
i would be very happy.

Anybody I can sent these 2 files to?

Thanks in advance.

What do you want them converted to? And what Adobe converter would you use
for a MS product?

I'll convert them to Word for you. You do have Word?

Hi JoAnn,
Anything else than a publisher file, because that seems hard to import
I mentioned pdf or text file.
I'm gonna send the files to Mary Sauer, so hopefully I'll get something
back.
About your question for a Adobe converter for a MS product,
If I knew one for Ms publisher I wouldn't be asking this offcourse.
I think I don't exactly get the question, sorry about that.

Thanks for the reply though.

Much appreciated.

There is a converter to load older Publisher files into Adobe PageMaker.

 

[Dave]

Ed, yes, I mentioned that one in my question
(, i tried adobe Converter 1.0 for Microsoft Publisher 95 and 97
that didn't work)
That one works with pagemaker

So I don't think that was the answer.

Yes, I know

I was explaining to JoAnn why an Adobe converter would be used with a
Microsoft file. It is to convert a Microsoft file to an Adobe format.

However, it does not work with files from Publisher versions higher than 97,
which is probably why it's not working on your file.

If you are using Pagemaker 7, you can import Publisher 2000 files. The 7.01
patch for Pagemaker added the ability to accept Publisher 2002/2003 files
SAVED as Publisher 2000 to be imported into Pagemaker.
