Open .pub files on Windows 10 and 11
Publisher document files come from Microsoft Publisher (1991 to 2026). Filixir opens them without the original program. Newsletters, flyers and cards, saved as PDF.
How to open one
- Download Filixir. It's free for Windows 10 and 11 and installs without an administrator password.
- Double-click your .pub file, or right-click it and choose Open with › Filixir. You can also drag it onto Filixir.
- The first time, Filixir offers to download its free documents add-on (the LibreOffice engine) from its makers. It takes a minute and only happens once.
- Look through it in Filixir, then save it in the format you want. Your original file is never changed.
