Open Publisher Files

Publisher to Google Docs and Google Slides

Google Drive cannot open or preview .pub files. Convert the file first, then upload the result to Drive.

To keep the layout: use Google Slides

Google Slides lets you place text and pictures anywhere on the page, like Publisher did. Upload your .pub file on our home page and download the file ending in Canva, Google Slides.pptx. In Google Drive, choose New, File upload, then open the file with Google Slides. Text stays editable.

Want it done for you? Upload your .pub files and get a PDF, an editable file for Canva, PowerPoint and Google Slides, and a Word file. Free preview before you pay.

Convert my files

To keep the text: use Google Docs

Upload the Word file (.docx) we give you to Google Drive and open it with Google Docs. You get all the text and pictures in reading order. The layout is simplified, because Docs is made for flowing text.

Set the page size

Publisher flyers are usually US Letter or A4. In Google Slides, use File, Page setup, Custom to match, for example 8.5 x 11 inches, before printing.
