In order of reliability, open, and then export to another file format using:
* Microsoft Publisher;
* Zamzar;
* LibreOffice;

Apache OpenOffice does not have built in support for Publisher file
formats, and, AFAIK, that convertor has not yet been packaged as an
extension.

RE: metafiles

2015-02-20 Thread Dennis E. Hamilton
OpenOffice Draw can import metafiles, and you can paste metafiles into 
documents being created in OpenOffice.

However, OpenOffice Draw does not export metafiles.  

Paint accepts image files, not metafiles.  Metafiles contain instructions that 
are used to draw an image at any size you want, rather than providing a 
fixed-size image.

There may be free drawing software that can make and also edit metafiles, if 
that is what you need to do to.  I don't know which ones are trustworthy.  
There are also commercial products that will do it.

I'm not clear whether this addresses your question or not.  Others here may 
have more ideas.

I have a quilting program on my computer that lets me design quilts. 
According to the manual, I can put the patterns in a metafile and explode 
them to make it easier to put the design in the instructions.  When I follow 
the directions, I get the message "Paint does not recognize this program" 
or something to that effect.

How large are the documents you are working on?
How complex are the documents you are working on?
How much RAM do you have on your system?
What other software are you running?

Phone support is only available from third parties:
* Some of those vendors offer per incident support. You call them, and
they either charge by the minute, or a flat rate for the entire phone call;
* Some of those vendors offer time-limited contracts. Pay upfront, and
if it can be solved by talking you through the process, via phone, or
video-phone, they will do so;
* Some of those vendors offer time-limited contracts, that include
rewriting the code to fix any issues that they can not solve by talking
you through the process;
* Some of those vendors include face-to-face support, as an option;

Rates for these services depend upon where the vendor is located, and
the specific support options they offer.
