Microsoft Publisher 2021
Publisher 2021: Microsoft's layout program as a single Windows application
Publisher 2021 is Microsoft's program for laying out print publications, offered here as a standalone application without the other Office programs. Text, images and shapes are placed freely on the page in frames, which makes it suitable for flyers, brochures, club newsletters, invitations, business cards or notices. The application is mainly of interest to users who want to continue opening and editing existing Publisher files.
Working with Publisher 2021
A publication is created from a template or a blank page in the required format. Text boxes, images and graphics can be moved, rotated and scaled independently of each other, and longer texts can be spread across several columns and pages using linked text boxes, for example in a four-page parish newsletter. Elements that are to appear on every page, such as headers and footers, page numbers or borders, are placed on a master page and can therefore be changed in one place for all pages.
In version 2021, Microsoft visually revised the start screen and the ribbon tabs. In the “Colours” dialog box, colour values can be entered directly as a hexadecimal code, so a specified corporate colour such as #0F4C81 can be applied without converting it into RGB values.
End of Microsoft Publisher
For the perpetually installed versions, including Publisher 2021, support ended on 13 October 2026. According to Microsoft, Publisher 2021 can still be installed and used after this date, and existing files can still be opened and edited. Microsoft recommends additionally converting existing publications into another format, for example PDF, and names Word and PowerPoint as alternatives for new print publications. There is no newer version of Publisher; according to Microsoft, Publisher is no longer included in Office LTSC 2024.
