Microsoft announces the end of the Publisher app

Microsoft has officially announced plans to remove the Publisher app from the Microsoft Office productivity suite.

According to a statement from the company on its official website, it plans to permanently discontinue the application by October 2026 and later remove it from Microsoft 365 cloud subscriptions.

The announcement was made quietly on the company's website, which said the reason for the decision was to "focus on new features and provide customers with the tools they need to achieve their important goals."

It is worth noting that the Microsoft Publisher application is a desktop publishing program within the Office suite of applications, designed to create graphic publications such as newsletters, flyers, business cards, and other designs based on professional templates. Unlike Word, the focus is more on page design than text formatting.

The company says that most of Publisher's features for creating professional templates and publications are already available in other Microsoft 365 apps like Word and PowerPoint and users can rely on them instead, but it's not clear to what extent they can be used to consider. Suitable alternative.

Existing Publisher users can continue to use the app until October 2026. In the same month, Microsoft will end support for the Office 2021 LTSC suite.

The company decided to announce the end of the Publisher app early so that users can plan the transition to other apps, whether part of the company's own package or owned by a third party.
