Can Publisher work with Adobe GoLive?

One of our researchers put together a website using Publisher of her work
the last couple years.  Big problem - I don't have Publisher and can't read
it.  I use Adobe GoLive (part of Adobe's Creative Suite (CS)) for our org's
website.  I've asked her what version of Publisher she's using so I can look
on-line at MS for help, but thought I'd also ask here:  Is there a way
within Publisher to do a Save As or Export or something so that I can then
use it in GoLive?

It doesn't really matter which version of Publisher. The code produced is
way too different to import into any other program. Best to start over.
Sorry.

Good to know, thanks.

Any chance the researcher can save it as a Word Doc or PDF?

You can save directly from the Pub file to Word, but it will only pick up
the text. That would save you some time. The images you can glean from html
output. The newer versions of Publisher produces an index.htm file (the home
page) and an index_files folder which contain the supporting graphics and
the other .htm files for the site. You can try to import those, but I think
you would find that the code is so messy and bloated, you won't want to try
to edit it. Pub 2000 is the cleanest code, but as of 2002 MSFT messed it up
with VML and more...

Pub 2007 has the PDF add-in that would allow you to produce a PDF file.
Otherwise, I use www.primopdf.com to produce pdfs from Pub files. I
abandoned an old copy of Acrobat 4.0.

You might have the person save it as a .mht file. At least that would be
complete...

You can also save the Pub files as images: .ps, .gif, .jpg, .emf....  And if
you open the page in FF or Opera...and maybe Apache, you can right click and
save the individual images. Right click is disabled in IE.
