Can I print a publisher document in word format?

[Cathy]

I want to email a document in publisher, but recipient doesnt have publisher
on their computer, how else can I email the document. Can I change the
document into word?

You could, but you wouldn't want to.

Use a program like PrimoPDF (www.primopdf.com) to convert to PDF, then send
them the PDF file (which can be opened in the free Adobe Reader or Acrobat
Reader, installed on 99% of PCs)

You could also go to File > Print while in Publisher and choose the Office
Document Image Writer printer and send that file to him/her. They will be
able to open the file in their Office Document Imaging application (assuming
you both have the latest versions of Office).

Dennis,

I am sorry, but no. I have fought for that in our Publisher meetings at
Redmond...even in our live web conference calls and I have been shot down.
The Publisher team LOVES the idea, however, it's an Office wide decision
since the Office team share that product and it's intellectual rights. They
have been unable (to my knowledge) to convince a change in that.
