[edit] File Identification
Publisher version 1.0 was a simple binary file format with the magic header: E7AC2C00
Publisher versions 2.0 and onward use the Microsoft Compound File format. Within the OLE container, the "Contents" file is similar to version 1, with the magic header: E8AC2200 (v2 - 2000) and E8AC2C00 (2002 - 2019)
Beginning with version 11 (2003), the OLE container started using the OLE "DocumentSummaryInformation" file format which contains a version number.
