PUB2ID - Microsoft Publisher To Adobe InDesign

PUB2ID is a plug-in for Adobe InDesign. It provides a quick, easy and affordable method for you to migrate all your Microsoft Publisher content into new Adobe InDesign documents. The conversion is enabled with a single click using the InDesign File->Open menu. No more re-creating documents from scratch; PUB2ID gives you a big head-start.

PUB2ID translates the intricate details of the content within the Microsoft Publisher document and instantly re-creates it within InDesign. Items converted from Publisher include: page size, positioning, color models, fonts and styles, text attributes and tables, layers, word wrap, linked text boxes as well as automatic extraction of images embedded in the Publisher file.

The PUB2ID document conversion technology will save you countless hours of scanning, re-keying and formatting. This product converts and transforms files created with Microsoft Publisher into an Adobe InDesign file on either Macintosh or Windows platforms.

It is important to note that even though PUB2ID provides many benefits, conversion is not perfect. This is because manufacturers of Desktop Publishing applications have their own, unique methods of text rendering and graphical representation.

Therefore, text flow and certain graphical elements will not be 100%. Depending on the use of custom kerning, tracking, leading, graphic formatting and effects, etc., more or less rework may be required, but some rework will always be required. We suggest that all converted documents are proofed before output.

Please download the PUB2ID User Guide and review the limitations prior to purchase.
