Hi~ I have created an ad in Publisher 2002 and I've sent it to an agency who is requiring me to send a different format. She is using Quark, but she said if I file it as a pdf file and email it to her it will be able to work. It is being printed 4-color p
rocess (glossy) on the inside cover of a catalog. I cannot find a pdf format inside publisher 2002, is there a comparable format? This ad has a 4-color photo in it and I am concerned about losing the quality of the photo through the format transfer. She a
lso said a jpeg file might work, will I lose the quality if I transfer it to this format too? Do I have another option? I know I could send her the photo and she could re-create it in Quark, but she doesn't have the font Vivaldi.
~Thanks, Deb

Publisher will not create .pdf files. You will need thrid party software. I
use Adobe Acrobat for mine. I've also created an ad for a magazine and sent
it to the print house. They had no trouble handling the file.

There are several low-cost (and free, I think) programs available. However,
I'm not sure if you can produce a CMYK file with them. You do tend to get
what you pay for. Do a search in Google and see what you can learn.

CMYK color isn't something I get into but in Publisher 2000, the Help file
has some guidance for Publisher to convert RGB to CMYK.
