How to Convert Microsoft Publisher Files to Images
Turn the pages of your Microsoft Publisher .pub file into PNG or JPG images directly in your browser. Select an image format and resolution, then download your pages in one ZIP archive.
Overview
Publisher documents can contain flyers, business cards, brochures, posters and newsletters. SwiftVecto converts supported publications into a separate raster image for each page. PNG preserves image detail without lossy compression; JPG generally creates smaller files. The output is a visual snapshot, not an editable Publisher document. Some complex Publisher layouts may appear differently after conversion.
Benefits
How It Works
Upload a supported Microsoft Publisher .pub document.
Choose PNG or JPG and the output resolution.

Each page is checked and added to a ZIP archive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I convert Publisher pages without Microsoft Publisher?
Yes. Upload a supported PUB file and SwiftVecto generates page images for download.
Which image formats are supported?
PNG and JPG.
Does every page become a separate image?
Yes. Supported publications of up to 20 pages are exported as numbered image files.
Can I choose the resolution?
Yes. Select 72, 150, 200 or 300 DPI. At 300 DPI, publications are limited to 10 pages.
Why is my download a ZIP?
The ZIP keeps all page images together, including when the publication contains only one page.
