Creating and Printing a booklet from Publisher 2003

[Myrttle]

I hope someone will be able to help me soon. I am in the process of creating
a booklet 8 1/2 by 11 and am having a little problem with printing. I cannot
find a template like the one in publisher 2000 under the 2003 version. The
booklet will be sent out for printing and the company that I use only has the
2000 version of publisher. She is unable open the document even when I save
it as a lower version and is therefore unable to print it.

How can I rectify this problem?

Thanks

Saving as a Publisher 2000 file to go to press is a Very Bad Idea. Your
output will look little like the original file.

Use an application like PrimoPDF to convert to a PDF file (turn the quality
settings up, otherwise you'll end up with low-resolution output), and give
your printer that.
