    Hi

    Yes you need Microsoft Publisher installed, or have the sender convert it before sending to .PDF or .XPS

    Hello
    I was i the middle of installing Publisher but I noticed it was about 233 MB and I have never received a .PUB extention since I have been using the pc.
    I don't think it is a common extension between emailers who are not in offices.
    So, I removed it and did as you said which is to ask the sender to change the extesion.
    It worked out that way.
    I'm curious, is Publisher part of M.S. Office? I have the 2003 version. I was tempted to use my daughter's 2007 version but I think that is illegal and would not work anyway.
    Thank you for your help.
