    Interested to see if ID will open a Pub file as mentioned earlier.

    From the Markzware site: Pub2ID has been DISCONTINUED. Please see our Products page for current Markzware offerings. Markzware also has a File Conversion Service where we can convert your Publisher files to InDesign.

    If you have a lot of files to convert, it may be worth your while to look into the pub2id converter from markzware.

    Save as PDF in publisher. Create a new indesign file and place the file. The place command will only show the first page of the file, so check the "Show Import Options" box for all options.

    Adobe is telling me that InDesign CC will do a direct conversion from Publisher.  I'm consulting with a client that is using a Color MFP and not getting the desired output quality that they see on the screen.  We purchased the Xrite Colormunki utility and want to get what they see and found out that Publisher won't do color profiling.  Any help would be terrific.

    Who ever told you that either misunderstood the question (I hope) or simply lied.
