But I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for either. Were Microsoft to add another application to Office for the Mac it would more likely be Access than Publisher. They are not interested in offering a product on the Mac that would detract from using Windows and Windows' versions of MS software. I would not count on Microsoft providing more in their OS X version of Office than they have in the past. Only the Standard and higher versions include Outlook. Basic, Home and Student, and Standard versions (the same versions available for the Mac) do not include Publisher. If you simply want to do basic newsletters you don't really need anything more than Word.įurthermore, Publisher only is available in the Small Business and higher versions of Office. If you need full-blown layout software there are two worthy competitors - Quark and InDesign. Why would you need Publisher? Current versions of Word are quite capable of full desktop publishing without the need for other applications. Since they left it out of all of the versions that are currently offered, does anyone know if the newer version will include Publisher?

I heard that MS will be bringing out a more equipped version of Office for Mac in the near future. Word & Publisher work quite well with each other in the Windows OS environment. I hope I haven't defeated the purpose of upgrading to a iMac instead of upgrading to another Dell.
Working with Parallels and Office 2000 for Window xp works great. In order to get back real editing & publishing capabilities, I have had to take another route by installing Parallels and Windows xp home, then MS Office 2000. Unfortunately, no Mac version of Office has Publisher as part of the program. I find that Pages works okay, but it just does not have the editing features that come with word & publisher. When I made the switch to the iMac, I also installed iWork with Pages & Keynotes so I could get back into the newsletter editing.

Needing an upgrade real bad, I elected to switch gears and go back to Apple and the newest iMac. I was using MS Office 2000 on an outdated Dell pc. I worked with Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, and Publisher for several newsletters that I help out with.
