Hello, What software will people be using and why when Publisher is phased out in October 2026? Thank you.
I know there's InDesign and Canva. Also, will Publisher files be able to be converted ?
A desktop publishing application from Microsoft that focuses on page layout and graphic design.

As “Jef4” replied on Feb 20, there is an alternative free program called LibreOfficeSuite (for Windows.) I downloaded it and it successfully opens Publisher files to edit them (and other Office suite files.)

Anch'io uso MS Publisher ogni settimana per il foglio degli avvisi parrocchiale, ma anche per lavoro (scuola).
è un programma che uso da ormai 25 anni ed è il motivo principale per cui pago l'abbonamento a M365.
Pensare di dover convertire tantissimi files in PDF, già mi spaventa un po', ma soprattutto il fatto di non avere un'alternativa valida nella suite di M365.
Microsoft, un consiglio: cambia idea, per favore.
