Scribus has an import Microsoft Publisher feature. Scribus is available on Mac OS X: http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/MacOSX_version_of_Scribus Answer is incorrect. According to the Scribus for OS X manual: "Is there or will there be a Microsoft Publisher importer ? There is none and very unlikely to be provided by the Scribus Team. As with Indesign and Quark Xpress, these file formats are undocumented. They are difficult and sometimes impossible to reverse engineer. We would note that even users of different versions of Publisher have difficulties saving or opening .pub files on different versions."

Does Microsoft Publisher 2003 work with Vista?
Yes it does. I have tried it on Vista 32 bit and Vista ultimate 64 bit and both worked fine as far as doing the simple work I was doing. One thing I had a problem with, but this is common to both Vista and XP, is opening Publisher files over a network when there are hundreds of files in the server directory. There's an irritating delay opening and saving network files, though this also happened under XP, but not Win 98. However don't think it will be improved by buying Publisher 2007 as it made the matter worse - unbelievably, you cannot set a default directory to be another computer on the network, only the computer Publisher is installed on, so this means big problems if you want several users working on and saving Publisher 2007 files to a server. Microsoft describes it as an oversight but haven't remedied it with a patch. Therefore in my experience of fairly basic Publisher files, 2003 works fine on Vista and has some features that are better than the 2007 edition.
Why can't Microsoft Word 2003 users read Microsoft Word 2007 files?
They can, you need to get the MSOffice compatibility pack from Microsoft though. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA100444731033.aspx Microsoft moved up to a newer format to provide more flexibility to documents. An alternative to the fix is to save your files from 2007 to the 2003 format in the drop down box at the bottom of the save screen.
