As an aside, Visio 2003 is similar to this. Older versions of Visio can't read 2003 files, but Visio 2003 can (thankfully) save a file as an older version. Some of the import features for CAD files were taken out of Visio 2003.

Incidentally, the worst example of "forced upgrading" that I've
seen recently isn't even a publications tool, but a CAD program.
The latest version not only saves its new work in a file format
that can't be read by older versions (typical), it lacks the ability
to save back to or read from versions older than one release
back.
