Ubuntu

Can you get open office to open a .pub file

Asked by Ingalls

I Recently got ubuntu and have used open office.
I have whole bunch of microsoft publisher .pub files.
Since I transfered to ubuntu I can't open them any more.
Is there anyway to either open them with open office?
I have scribus but it doesn't support .pub files either.
If open office can't open .pub files is there any ubuntu program that does?
Thanks for your help.

Hi !

I think only publisher can open .pub file. If guess your only solution is to use wine to make publisher works under linux

you can also use this service to convert your .pub in pdf
