I have an upcoming need to take a publication produced in an earlier version of Microsoft Publisher, and output it as a Word document (could be Word 97 or Word 2000, if one would work any better than the other). Is there a way to import a Publisherdocument into Word, and hopefully, retain the document in tact?

Publisher uses Word files as input, and the resulting Publisher file is not able to be opened by Word, unless it is completely text.

If you just want to print the file, and you have the Publisher program in which it was created, you might consider saving it in .htm format bringing it up in a web browser, and printing it from the browser.
