Hi,

I need a text editor that can "Publish"[1] in its native format
(i.e. with format and font information intact.)  I've only
ever seen "Publishers" which use plain-text format.  Is there
a text editor that can do this?

Why?  

Quark X-Press can translate "Subscribers" using the same
filters it uses for "Import."[2]  One could modify text from
within Quark, but one runs the risk of screwing up the whole
layout; therefore, it would be nice to use a nice simple
text editor for the text, and just use a "pointer" from
the Quark document to the text.  Leave Quark to the Art
department.

Joel

[1] "Publish" in the sense of "System 7 Publish/Subscribe"
[2] Using the TextLinker X-Tension from NPath Software
