I create a newsletter in Publisher 2003. I save it in .pub and in .pdf. I
want to display these newsletters on our website. How can I put it on a
FrontPage 2003 page?

Click to expand...

Your BEST bet is to create a simple web page and provide a link to the
PDF version. People can just click on the link and the pdf will open in
their browser under normal circumstances.

DO NOT try to save the Publisher file in HTML, as it will create an
absolutely horrid web page.
 
I do two things:

1- Convert Newsletter to pdf. Import PDF into FP design and create a link to it.

AND

2- Convert the pdf to a gif (sometimes a jpg) and Import into FP and insert in page design. This way there is a basic newsletter quickly viewable. It's not ideal but it works ok.

RESIST the temptation to output Pub files to HTML...you'll waste time and end up not very happy with results.

If I do recall correctly, Pub03 allows you to save as a GIF,
TIFF, JPG or PNG. I would avoid the double-conversion as
more would be lost

I'm still using Pub 2000 and it doesnt have that...but thats a good point you bring up.
 
Quite useful for my wife and her obsession with the dreaded
word-art

- I would gladly trade my pubo3 for fp03

It's weird too, how ya can spot Word Art a mile away.
 
Link to the PDF file in Frontpage (Insert menu > Hyperlink).

OR you could export the Publish file as HTML and import and open the HTML
file in Frontpage.
