Converting publisher files for use on Mac
I have Microsoft publisher files on a windows computer. I recently purchased a macbook air, and would like to move these files to my new computer. How do I do that?
LibreOffice 4.0 and later can open publisher files.
As others have mentioned there is no Mac application that can work with Publisher files. (EDIT: As Tom pointed out LibreOffice 4.0 and above, released in February 2013, can now open and work with Publisher files)
What I've recommended for people at our office who have made the switch to Mac is to either export to a different format (Word, PDF, etc) from Publisher on their PC beforehand.
Alternately you can use online services to convert the Publisher file into a PDF, Word doc, etc. I know there are several but the only I've actually used is the service from Zamzar.
Hope that helps!
