File Extension Pub

The file extension .pub is a proprietary data file format, primarily used by the Microsoft Office Publisher. This entry-level desktop publishing software allows for home-based and small enterprise publishing of brochures, pamphlets and newsletters. The Microsoft Office Publisher transforms normal word processing into more advanced copy that is print-ready.

By packaging the Microsoft Office Publisher in the Office Suite, it has brought desktop publishing to a wider audience. This basic version allows for customization, personalization and individualization of the documents. It is easy to create simple marketing and advertising materials in-house. Its mail merge capabilities work well with other basic Microsoft standards for sharing documents more efficiently across platforms. It also supports Web page and e-mail formats.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Testimonials

Regtask was able to clean up my computer and speed up the performance! I highly recommend it

Jo H.

My computer was always popping up with registry errors and I couldnt get rid of them. Regtask did the job for me and took less then 5 minutes to speed up my computer.

Samantha J.

I have to admit I'm no computer geek. When something goes wrong, I usually have to call someone to fix it and it costs me a lot of money. When my computer started to experience random freezes, I just used Regtask and now it works normally again.

David G.

My computer is 5 years old and runs extremely slow now. I was a bit sceptical about using Regtask, but just decided to give it a shot in the end and it worked out fantastically for me.

While Microsoft Office Publisher is fine for basic printing, it suffers from the recurring problem with fonts and layouts that might suddenly go haywire. The controls for setting these formats are hidden behind-the-scenes and very difficult to change. The rules are preset and not open to easy modification. More advanced publishing software corrects these Microsoft bugs.

The Microsoft Office Publisher will open and run these file extensions .pub. Not many other programs open or run the file extensions .pub. Microsoft does not have a viewer or plug-in for this .pub file extension and has prevented other publishers from providing a free software program to open these files. There have been some problems with compatibility amongst Microsoft Office Publisher products. A work-around is provided by the fact that Microsoft Office Publisher 2007 is available on a free trial basis for 60 days. Thus, you can get this free download to open any .pub file extensions you have laying around.
