Lively discussions on the graphic arts and publishing — in print or on the web

An ad for a full colour newsletter I'm doing has arrived, late, as a MS Publisher file (strictly forbidden in the specifications). I'd send it back, but there's no way the amateur client of the client will get it done in Word or something I can read, and get it back to me.

It's 70mm x 210mm, and only 56KB, so the quality's going to be hopeless anyway. The thing is, he didn't provide a paper copy either, so I have no idea what it's supposed to look like.

Can I ask someone with MS Publisher to convert it to Acrobat so I can re-set it?

Or is there a utility for either Mac or Windows that will open .pub files?

Please post here if you're prepared to do this, and provide your e-mail address via a private message.

Thanks.
