Is there a "viewer" for *.pub files?

[Dave T]

Is there a "viewer" or "reader," a la Adobe Reader, that people without
Microsoft Publisher can use to read a file created in Publisher?

JoAnn,

I thought one could get a demo version of Pub that basically reverts to
a viewer after the demo period is over?

Jesus H. Christ! Another lazy fuckwit whose mother probably still wipes his
arse! This question is asked about twenty times a day - find your own damned
answer! Ever heard of Google - or have you been living in a cave for the
past six years?!

Sorry, but this no more than you deserve. And I *do* wish people would stop
assisting those too stupid and lazy to help themselves. If they can't be
arsed to exhaust all avenues before asking, why should we bend over
backwards to assist them?!

Microsoft states in the knowledge base article if you don't activate, Publisher
becomes no more than a viewer. Can't say it would be my choice of a way to get a
viewer...

I've heard that but I've never heard from anyone who tried this. And, as
Brian says, you have to pay a shipping fee for the CD. Plus there's the time
you lose waiting for the CD to arrive. Most people who are asking about a
viewer need it now. Plus I suspect some of them need more than just a
viewer.

The Demo version of most Office apps is exactly the same as the full
version, except that the activation technology times out the activation
after 30 days (maximum 4 uses before the activation is required, then you
have 30 days)
