I was notified today of a free on-line service that looks interesting: A free Microsoft Publisher to PDF conversion service. See publishertopdf.com.
I haven't tried this, but am keeping a link to it for the couple-of-times-year occasion when someone sends me a Microsoft Publisher file that I need to either just look at, or worse, convert to InDesign.
A few related links:

Thanks for the tip, Keith! I will try this. I also use Zamzar.com to convert Publisher documents and anything else I can't open. So far it has worked great, but you have to wait for the service to email you the document. At home, I receive my email within a matter of seconds, but I've used it at work and it has taken much longer.
