If you created a publication that you want to share with others who don't have Publisher, you can save it as a PDF (Portable Document Format) or XPS (XML Paper Specification) file. Commercial printers often prefer to receive a PDF file for printing.

Save your publication in PDF or XPS format

Choose PDF if you want to save your publication in a format that can be easily shared and is used by many commercial printers. Choose XPS if you want to save your publication with even greater compression than PDF format. Read more about PDF and XPS formats.

About PDF and XPS formats

Both file formats are designed to provide read-only documents with optimal printing qualities. They also embed all needed fonts, preserve metadata, and can include hyperlinks.

The recipients need the appropriate viewer for the file format before they can view your files.

Note: These formats provide a way for others to view your publication only. The resulting files cannot be changed in Publisher.
