Why convert PUB to JPG?

PUB is a proprietary OLE2 binary layout format for printed materials such as flyers and brochures. Converting to .jpg lets recipients view the design in any image viewer, share it on social media, or attach it to email without needing Publisher software.

How to convert PUB to JPG

Microsoft Publisher EASIEST

Open the .pub, go to File > Export > Save for Photo Album, choose JPEG File Interchange Format (.jpg), set the resolution (96 DPI for screen, 150-300 DPI for print), select which pages, and click Save.

LibreOffice Draw FREE

Open the .pub in LibreOffice Draw, check the rendered layout, go to File > Export, select JPEG, set quality and resolution, and click Export; repeat for each page.

Quality & what to watch

  • Only Microsoft Publisher renders .pub files with full fidelity; LibreOffice Draw and online converters may miss complex layouts, custom fonts, or layered elements.
  • JPG is lossy - sharp text and flat-color logos in Publisher designs compress better in PNG; use JPEG when file size matters more than exact crispness.
  • Each page exports as a separate JPEG file; export to PDF instead if you need a single multi-page document.

Frequently asked questions

What resolution should I choose when exporting to JPEG?
Use 96 DPI for screen and social media use; set 150-300 DPI if the image will be printed or displayed at large size.
Can LibreOffice export all pages at once?
LibreOffice Draw exports one page at a time by default; repeat the export process for each page.
Microsoft Publisher is ending in 2026 - what should I do now?
Export your .pub files to JPEG or PDF while you still have Publisher access, before October 2026.
Should I use JPEG or PNG for a Publisher flyer?
PNG is the better choice for designs with sharp text and flat-color logos because it is lossless; use JPEG if file size is the priority.
