You should provide a free MS Publisher READER, and conspicuously .

[Mike Strong]

I found it odd that several contractors who work through a service called
Service Magic, send estimates and quotes with MS Publisher instead of Adobe
Acrobat; however, if MS Publisher is going to see a growth in interest and
adoption, Microsoft should, like Adobe / Macromedia, provide a free reader.

If one is already available, it is not easy to find on the MS Publisher page
that I was on.

So, suggestion one is: provide a free reader if not already available.
Suggestion two is: supply ubiquitous, easy to find links.

For now, the contractors will just have to FAX their quotes to me.

Respectfully,

M. Strong

You mean like Adobe's Photoshop reader? (Doesn't exist, to my knowledge -
correct me if I'm wrong)

Adobe Acrobat format has only ever been for use with the Reader, it was
specifically designed for that purpose. That is why the full Acrobat
program facilitates creation of PDFs from all applications that can print.

So, suggestion one is: provide a free reader if not already available.
Suggestion two is: supply ubiquitous, easy to find links.
