Why did you have to change WORDART in the PUBLISHER 2003 version.
I don't have the time to learn a new application.

You can download the old WordArt here: You use it by insert, object, scroll down to
WordArt 3.2
Publisher 2003/2002 Add-in: WordArt Compatibility

WordArt was changed all the way back in Publisher 2002.

The new-style WordArt was introduced along with the rest of the new drawing
tools to make Publisher behave like the rest of Office, for users who don't
have time to learn a new application when they want to do page layout.

The new WordArt is more flexible than the old in almost every way, and I
prefer it by far.  I hated the fact that it took so long for WordArt in
Publisher to be upgraded to the Word 97 version.

If everything works for you, then why upgrade?  If you do upgrade, things
are going to change.  Apart from small bugs, everything in Publisher
"works", per se, but many things could work BETTER.  The drawing tools in
Publisher work, but they could still work BETTER, and I am all in favour of
them being upgraded again.
