One suggestion for them though. A friend was looking for a freeware alternative to Microsoft Publisher. I checked out Open Office and was suprised it didn't include a comparable application. Guess I never had a reason before to notice the omission...

Clearly your friend should learn to code raw HTML and JSP in vi. A Microsoft Publisher clone is not needed! </sarcasm!>

at a minimum a publisher filter would be good. I have long since left the Microsoft world behind, but I have a ton of pub files.

I have had some people send me .pub files and I use this service to be able to read and view the files. I hope it helps you out.
