Support MS Publisher (.pub) to PDF Conversion

GroupDocs.Conversion Product Family

Hello,

Can you add support for Microsoft Publisher (.pub) files to be converted to PDF? I notice your sister company Aspose support this, however we have already purchased and configured everything using GroupDocs so don’t want to move.

We are currently using v21.8 so are a few versions behind, however I can’t find any documentation or release notes to say this is supported.

Thanks

Any updates as to what version is likely to include this? Been through the release notes for 22.7 and 22.8 and can’t see any mention?

Hello,

I can see that support for Publisher conversion was added in 22.11, thank you for this. Unfortunately, the results of the conversion are incredibly poor, certainly not the standard we have come to expect from GroupDocs which has been so good, so this is a little disappointing.

I have attached a sample file and output. Unfortunately, I had to use an unlicenced version as our licence expired in October, but we have no requirement to renew until this is resolved.

Please can you re-open this ticket and investigate.

It’s been 9 months, please could this be looked at with a matter of urgency. I need to renew our subscription to resolve some other issues but this is currently blocking that.
