Hi analog@logwell.com (analog@logwell.com),
in the newsgroups
you posted:
|| I am no expert, but it seems curious to me that Acrobat, and its
|| cheaper clones, can take such a wide variety of work product file
|| types, and produce a half decent pdf file.
What does that have to do with copy and pasting from Publisher to Word? or
Word to Publisher? NADA
|| So why can't a program
|| like Publisher process a word doc that is pasted in it and make it
|| come out looking right?
Why can't Adobe? And while you are answering as to why Adobe can't do this
either with other Adobe products, answer me this batman, why is it that you
talk about Cut and Paste from one product of Office into another product
within Office and then compare that do Acrobat exporting PDF?
If you want a consistent export from all MS Office applications like Adobe
is to PDF, use the MODI in Office.
|| Your gawd MS ought to be as smart as the
|| folks at Adobe, no?
Yup!
|| I am only suggesting that Publisher ought to be
|| able to take any document created in the Office suite and be smart
|| enuff to make it look right in Publisher.
I would like to be able to do that in Adobe as well. But it just doesn't
happen with them either.
|| But then Publisher can't
|| even deal with work product files from previous versions of
|| Publisher, can it?
Do you even comprehend what you are posting? Of course Publisher can deal
with publications from previous versions of Publisher.

*Actually we are talking about Word to Publisher. To my lay brain, it seems
to
have allot to do with it. It is technically possible that Publisher could d
eal
with Word documents.

*Because, moron, if Acrobat can process a Word doc into a decently renderabl
e
pdf file, then it should have been trivial for Publisher to grab a Word doc
and
make it look decent in Publisher. Should I talk slower, Robin?

*WTF is MODI?

*But M$ is sooo much smarter than Adobe... Acrobat works just fine with Wor
d
docs, and from what I have seen in here, with Publisher as well.
