[Solved] Turning a Publisher document into a template

[signalsgrl]

Greetings! I hope you can help me out.

I do some PR work and run a Macbook, OS 10.4.11. A client has sent me some letterhead made in Microsoft Publisher. I tried opening the file using various Open Office and .odf text and drawing templates, but got the error "general input/output error."

How can I open this file and make it a template for future use? I am running Open Office 3.1.

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forums.

Nothing opens Publisher files apart from Publisher.

There's a workaround described in this thread: [Solved] How to open Publisher Files in OOo.
