Dear you all,

I have received a MSWord file from one of my current customers. However, he asked me if I can work in Publisher. Does anyone know about a CAT tool that manage Pubisher files??
I own Studio 2011/2014, SDL Trados 7 (including Tageditor) and WordFast pro and Classic (I own a license for these WF but never used them).

Have my best regards and thanks in advance.
Héctor Aires

Hi Hector,

Download a trial version of Fluency from Western Standard handles Publisher files perfectly, is WYSIWYG and reformatting is painless after exporting localized files.

It's the only one as far as I know.

How about this: http://www.zamzar.com/fileformats/pub ?

It's a one-way road, though.

BTW: Here's an example MS Publisher file

If I remember correctly, somebody asked for it.

You can also use LibreOffice to open .pub files. They will be converted to ODF Drawings (.ODG), though the result won't be as good as Zamzar's.

Maybe worth looking... Jan 12, 2016

... at this article. It's for Trados Studio but the format could be handled in any CAT that manages XML.
