Convert Publisher Flyer to Word: Karlene's Request
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
Karlene requested assistance in converting a flyer created in Microsoft Publisher to a Word document for distribution. Due to version compatibility issues, several solutions were proposed, including saving the Publisher file as an earlier version, using PRIMOpdf to create a PDF, or copying and pasting the content directly into Word. The discussion emphasized that recipients do not need to download additional software to view the converted file, and suggested saving the flyer as an image file (JPEG, GIF, or PNG) for easy import into Word while maintaining layout integrity.
PREREQUISITES- Familiarity with Microsoft Publisher and its file formats.
- Basic understanding of Microsoft Word document handling.
- Knowledge of PDF creation tools, specifically PRIMOpdf.
- Experience with image file formats such as JPEG, GIF, and PNG.
- Research how to save Microsoft Publisher files as earlier versions for compatibility.
- Learn how to use PRIMOpdf for converting documents to PDF format.
- Explore techniques for copying and pasting content from Publisher to Word effectively.
- Investigate best practices for saving images in high resolution for document import.
This discussion is beneficial for graphic designers, administrative professionals, and anyone needing to convert documents between Microsoft Publisher and Word while maintaining formatting and layout integrity.

another option would be to download PRIMOpdf and print into a pdf (Free PDF Creator - Convert to PDF from Any File You Can Print - PrimoPDF)
or save as a picture (jpeg or gif)
assuming the reason you want it in Word is so they can read it -
Hope this helps-

thanks for your help. I have publisher on my computer and I designed this fundraiser flyer in publisher. I have to send it via email to the coordinator (I can print it fine from my own computer, but she doesn't have publisher) Plus, I think they want to be able to send this out via email to other people as well as making copies to give to people. Would the coord. have to download that program? I just dont want to add anything else to my computer if I dont need it.
thanks in advance

No - they do not have to download the program. When you use this program it allows you to save it as a .pdf file that can be read by the Adobe Reader, most everyone has that. It also keeps all the formats from Publisher or Word or whatever program you are using.
It's the same concept as scanning a document but you use your printer functions. Nothing prints from your printer, you just use those settings to save it as a .pdf
I am trying to explain and not doing a very good job. Sorry-
Feel free to call me with questions - 541-653-8328 or 541-654-1203
