    Microsoft Publisher won't make a pdf file
    « on: September 21, 2014, 07:04:50 PM »
    I have been running Microsoft Publisher for 2 years. I write a newsletter on it, then save the file as a pdf and then email it to my staff. Today I tried to do that and it says publisher cannot save the file. I called Microsoft directly but they will charge me $150 for the help. I did reinstall my program today but nothing works. I would appreciate any help. I am running an Acer laptop on Windows 7.

    I am not a user of  Microsoft Publisher, but I do work with PDF  a bit.
    If there is on there might be  seven free PDF makers you might use.
    Here are five:

    The Apache Office writer does PDF.

    IMHO just save the file in a common format, maybe .DOC and convert it to PDF.
