About

DesignCraft is an open-source page-layout and publishing application for designers, publishers, and other users creating multi-page documents. It provides spreads and parent pages, text and graphic frames, threaded stories, columns, paragraph and character styles, color swatches, and text wrapping for arranging editorial and print-oriented layouts. Typography tools include paragraph composition, hyphenation, optical margin alignment, and baseline grids. Users can work with a documented native file format, import and export IDML, and export PNG images. The application is available as a native desktop program for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with a WebAssembly build for browser use. Command-line workflows, a JSON control channel, and an MCP server support scripted or agent-driven document operations. DesignCraft is free and open source under MIT or Apache-2.0 licensing. The product is in development.

About

PubStudio is desktop publishing software for Windows 10 and 11 that opens Microsoft Publisher .pub files (Publisher 98 to 365) with their text boxes, pictures, tables and master pages, so you can keep editing, printing and saving them. Make flyers, newsletters, brochures, cards, calendars and labels with a familiar ribbon. The free plan is free forever with no account: open, edit, print and export PDF (with a small "Made with PubStudio" note). PubStudio Pro ($10 a month or $99 a year, with a 7-day free trial) adds clean and print-shop PDFs, Word export, mail merge for letters and labels, 100+ templates, a Brand Kit and QR codes. Also available from the Microsoft Store, and in Chrome or Edge on Mac and Chromebook. Built for churches, schools, libraries, nonprofits, small businesses and home users with Publisher files.
