Microsoft Publisher for Mac?

I have a MacBook and I was looking for a program that is like Microsoft Publisher that is freeware or maybe even like $20 or something. The best descriptive(obviously the one with the program) gets the points! Thanks!

I don't believe Publisher exists for the Mac. But you have several options. Look up the program NeoOffice. This is an Open Source program, it's free. It's actually a version of Open Office that's been designed to work more like most Mac Programs work (Open Office itself can get a little esoteric.)



Another option is iWork '08. Pages is a word processing/page layout program that's pretty sweet (and it is a lot better low end page layout program than Word is, despite what Microsoft wants you to think), and iWork itself is a whole lot cheaper than Office for the Mac. And it can generally deal with most equivalent files from the PC side of things. iWork '08 includes Pages, Keynote (Apple's very nice and slick response to PowerPoint), and Numbers, a much more intuitive spreadsheet program (while it can't do everything Excel can, it is more than adequate for most home users). iWork '08 costs about $80 (check Amazon.com, I think they have it at a small discount) for a single user or about $100 for a family 5-license pack.

Try using iWork for Mac.... you want to use "Pages" for print documents for the most part.



Go to http://www.apple.com/iwork/pages/



Hope it helps... it's like $80 though.
