Microsoft Publisher 2019 – detailed description

Microsoft Publisher is a desktop publishing software included as part of the Microsoft Office Suite alongside popular programs like Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. It is specifically designed to meet the needs of small businesses and home users, offering a user-friendly alternative to more complex programs like Adobe InDesign, QuarkXPress, or Affinity Publisher. This makes Publisher an ideal choice for users who want to achieve professional results without facing a steep learning curve.

Ein wesentliches Merkmal von Microsoft Publisher ist die einfache Veröffentlichung von Inhalten im WYSIWYG-Verfahren («What You See Is What You Get»). Dies bedeutet, dass Benutzer direkt sehen können, wie ihre Inhalte im endgültigen Druck aussehen werden. Publisher bietet eine Vielzahl von Designsets und Vorlagen, die es einfach machen, ansprechende Grußkarten, Einladungen und andere Druckerzeugnisse zu erstellen und zu bearbeiten.

Publisher uses the .pub file extension for files created with the software, allowing for easy identification and management of files within the Microsoft Office environment. While Publisher does not offer the extensive website creation features of specialized web design software, up until version 2007, it was possible to create websites, although HTML files could not be opened. Websitescreated with Publisher had the usual HTML extension but could only be reopened using Publisher itself. These website creation features were removed in the 2010 version.

Another user-friendly aspect of Microsoft Publisher is the Ribbon interface, introduced in the 2010 version. This interface provides an intuitive and easily accessible way to interact with the various features and tools of the software. The Ribbons organize commands and tools into thematic tabs, significantly improving navigation and usability.

Overall, Microsoft Publisher is a powerful and user-friendly solution for creating printed materials and other visual content. Thanks to its integration into the Microsoft Office Suite and focus on ease of use and quick results, Publisher is particularly well-suited for small businesses and home users looking to create professional printed products without much effort.
