Had you searched, you'd have found this was a known issue. Publisher abhors
being installed on, and having its files saved to, remote drives. If you
wish to store a Publisher file on a network drive for others to have access

fact that Word doesn't have issues is completely irrelevant. Word is /far/
more flexible than Publisher.

Nobody knows - it is normally the case that standard users cannot save
direct to network but network admins can, but why is the big question at the
moment.
