Anybody know of a Linux app that can read/convert MS Publisher output files?

Doesn't exist. However, there are some web sites that will convert your
pubs for you. Do a google search with:

ms publisher conversion

Came across this:
If you still have access to a Windows box with Publisher, you could
always install PDF Creator on the Windows box, which you will use like a
printer to migrate your .pub files over to .pdf files, which you can
then view on any operating system.

Thanks, guys. Just found a solution here while browsing some old software
they were cleaning out: an old copy of Office 2000 Pro they had used way
back which included Publisher.

Purely serendipity but don't you just love virtual machines?
