You might try wine. Wine usually runs MS software fairly well. I don't personally know about Publisher, however. For DTP, I use both LyX (LaTeX/TeX) and Scribus. LyX is basically a user-friendly front-end (text editor) to LaTeX/TeX. Although LaTeX/TeX is considered primarily useful for producing technical and academic documents, the number of packages is fairly extensive and includes stuff which can be easily used for nontechnical DTP production. Scribus is the Linux equivalent of Adobe's Indesign, Pagemaker, or Quark Xpress. A feature of Scribus that I use a lot is its ability to produce the interactive PDF forms that one would normally need the full Adobe Acrobat to produce. The full Adobe Acrobat has not been ported to the Linux platform, only the Reader has been. deedee --- Registered Linux User #327485 Visit "WordStar & GNU/Linux" http://www.wordstar2.com Also, see the WordStar Users Group http://www.wordstar2.com/cbabbage/wordstar ____________________________________________________________ Find what you are looking for with the Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.asp?SRC=lycos10
