We've been asking for that function in Publisher for quite some time.

The Word macro I offered in this thread (post of 02/02/2010) generates
simple WordArt, something used in Publisher as well. I exectured the macro
in Word and copy/pasted the result from Word into Publisher. It seems like
it is fully functional, including all the handles and text setting stuff.

The macro can probably be rewritten to work in Publisher directly, but as I
am not a Publisher user, I can't offer much assistance here. I checked and
couldn't find an InsertXml function at first glance, so that could be a
major problem.
