Microsoft Publisher is a desktop publishing application from Microsoft, differing from Microsoft Word in that the emphasis is placed on page layout and design rather than text composition and proofing.

However, Microsoft Publisher is an odd product because most of the features it offers are actually covered by Microsoft Word. In fact, with Word capable of doing most of the desktop publishing tasks, Publisher is seen as just an extra tool in the MS Office Package. Microsoft Office Publisher is a program that helps you to create, personalize and distribute professional-quality newsletters, brochures and calendars. You can also create your own publications with the professionally designed Publisher templates and customize the templates to meet your needs. Say goodbye to hefty subscription fees.

Overview[edit]

Publisher is included in higher-end editions of Microsoft Office, reflecting Microsoft's emphasis on the application as an easy-to-use and less expensive alternative to the 'heavyweights' with a focus on the small-business market, where firms do not have dedicated design professionals available to make marketing materials and other documents.[2][3] However, it has a relatively small share of the desktop publishing market, which is dominated by Adobe InDesign and formerly by QuarkXPress.[2]

While most Microsoft Office apps adopted ribbons for their user interface starting with Microsoft Office 2007, Publisher retained its toolbars and did not adopt ribbons until Microsoft Office 2010.[4] Convert iso to pkg for mac.

Compatibility[edit]

LibreOffice has supported Publisher's proprietary file format (.pub) since February 2013.[5] Winning eleven 2002 psx iso english. Corel Draw X4 features read-only support.

Publisher supports numerous other file formats, including the Enhanced Metafile (EMF) format, which is supported on Windows platforms. The Microsoft Publisher trial version can be used to view .pub files beyond the trial period.[6][7]

Adobe PageMaker also saved files with a .pub extension, but the two file formats were unrelated and incompatible.
