| 1108095 | 2010-06-08 07:42:00 | I know this isn't a MAC forum but for those of you out there that have them can MS publisher files be imported into MAC's? As have a friend in OZ who is writing memoirs and the files are in publisher for some reason. Anyway comp crashed and her son convinced her to buy the MAC (he needs slapping but my arms don't reach to OZ) |

| 1108097 | 2010-06-08 07:52:00 | Doesnt look too good. According to Google there isnt much for a Mac. Unless you convert to something it can read (like PDF). Isnt there a version of Office for Mac? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1108098 | 2010-06-08 07:54:00 | I just checked my Office 2007 Publisher and I can save in quite a number of formats including HTML, Text and PDF. I can also publish as a filtered web site including all pictures if any. |

| 1108099 | 2010-06-08 07:59:00 | Yeah waiting to hear back from them. I was surprised they were using Publisher and not word. I guess they could dual boot but I think that would be a step too far | gary67 (56) | ||

| 1108101 | 2010-06-08 08:05:00 | Just found this on google Zamzar (http://zamzar.com/) looks like it might be the go apparently has been used to convert to .doc and then MACS can read them | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1108102 | 2010-06-08 08:07:00 | Someone here (forums.macrumors.com) went to zamzar, and: I just used Zamzar to convert a pub document for my Mac. One hour later I started receiving spontaneous, unsolicited auditory commercials. I have never had this happen with my 5 year old mac. More than a coincidence... I'd stay away from Zamzar!!! |

I just uploaded a Pub file to there and requested an *.ODT file. I'm told I will get an email with a link so I can download the converted file. We will see. |

| 1108104 | 2010-06-08 08:22:00 | No I haven't that's why I'm asking on here before making any recommendations. SO what other formats do MAC's recognise? not having one limits my knowledge can they do word files? | gary67 (56) | ||
