About This Tool
Publisher to PDF opens Microsoft Publisher documents using a LibreOffice engine compiled to WebAssembly — useful because Publisher itself is Windows-only and few people have it installed.
Layout, text frames and images are preserved as closely as the format allows, and the conversion runs entirely inside your browser tab.
How to Use
Upload Your Publication
Drag and drop a .pub file or click to select it.
Convert
Click Convert. The engine loads on first use, which can take a moment.
Download
Download the finished PDF.
Use Cases
Open Without Publisher
Read a .pub file on any platform without buying a licence.
Send to Print
Hand a printer a PDF instead of a proprietary Publisher file.
Rescue Old Files
Recover newsletters and flyers from an archive.
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the conversion?
Publisher is a closed format read through reverse-engineered support, so complex layouts may shift slightly. Simple documents convert well.
Are newer .pub versions supported?
Most are. Very recent files occasionally use features the importer does not cover.
Can I edit the result?
The PDF can be edited with the Edit PDF tool, but it will not convert back to .pub.
