Hi dorayme! I don't have Publisher these days, but AFAIR you can drag the
images off the page onto the desktop, and then save them from there onto a
USB stick or something. With the text, it is in text boxes, and I think
there is a choice to "edit in Word". Then you can save the Word files and
extract the text from there. I hope you're not planning to "buy" Publisher
though! Borrow a friend's version.
