Why don't we do Publisher files?

Admittedly, the chances of receiving one from an agency is remote (they would probably be using more powerful desktop publishing applications), we have no guarantee that we will never receive one

I'd be happier to see this one "postponed" rather than outright rejected

It just should be a feature request rather than a bug. I've moved it now.

if we can handle the exception as a bug and then move to the feature request tracker for handling publishing.

making this the feature request. Exception handling all right after code examination (NormalisationThread:328)
