How It Works

How to Convert PUB

STEP 1

Click inside the file drop area to upload your PUB file or drag & drop it.

Locate your PUB file on your device—typically used for various purposes. Ensure the file is under 50MB to avoid upload issues. If the upload fails, check your internet connection or try compressing the file first.

STEP 2

Choose the format you want to convert your PUB file to and click 'Convert'.

Choose your desired format based on your needs—different formats suit different purposes, like JPEG for smaller file sizes. The conversion process typically takes a few seconds, depending on file size and server load.

STEP 3

Download your converted file instantly after conversion.

Once the conversion is complete, click the download link to save your converted file. You can then open it in software like a compatible viewer. If the file doesn’t download, ensure your browser allows pop-ups from RunConvert.

STEP 4

You can also send a link to the converted file via email. (Optional)

Enter an email address to receive a secure link to your converted file, which is useful for sharing with clients or accessing later. Links expire after 24 hours for security, and RunConvert ensures your data is protected during transmission.

What is PUB (Microsoft Publisher)?

PUB is the native file format for Microsoft Publisher, a desktop publishing application included in some editions of Microsoft Office. It's primarily a document format but can contain various types of embedded images.

PUB files can include text, vector graphics, raster images, and layout information for creating publications such as newsletters, brochures, flyers, and other documents that combine text and graphics.

While not primarily an image format, PUB files serve as containers that can hold multiple images with positioning and layout information, making them relevant for desktop publishing workflows.

How to open PUB?

PUB files are primarily opened with Microsoft Publisher, which provides full editing capabilities for all aspects of the publication.

For those without Publisher, Microsoft offers a free Publisher Viewer application for viewing (but not editing) PUB files.

Some third-party conversion services and software like Able2Extract and LibreOffice can import PUB files with varying degrees of fidelity, though complex layouts may not convert perfectly.

PUB is Developed by: Microsoft Corporation

PUB was Released on: 1991

Working with Images in PUB Files

When working with images in PUB files, it's important to note that the format stores embedded copies of the images, which can be extracted if needed using Microsoft Publisher or specialized conversion tools.

For optimal quality when creating PUB files, use high-resolution images appropriate for the intended output method (print or digital), as the final quality will depend on the resolution of these embedded images.

When sharing PUB files for commercial printing, it's often better to export to PDF format, which has broader compatibility with professional printing workflows and preserves image quality.
