Bulletin Rescue Free file check

Twenty years of bulletins. One folder. We'll save all of it.

Microsoft 365 loses Publisher on October 1, 2026. If your church office made its bulletins, newsletters and flyers in Publisher, we'll turn the whole folder into a clean, searchable archive and rebuild the templates you still use in Canva.

.pub Can't open file 2006200920122015201820212025 PDFs, sorted by year

A folder of Publisher files that won't open becomes a tidy shelf of PDFs, sorted by year, with no sound needed.

What happens to Publisher, and when

Microsoft is retiring Publisher. After that, your .pub files still sit on your computer, but you may have nothing that opens them properly.

Not sure which Office you have? Our free guide shows you how to check, and how to save a few files yourself.

October 1, 2026

Microsoft 365 subscribers lose access to Publisher.

October 13, 2026

Support ends for Publisher 2021. The program keeps running, but that one old computer may become the only thing that opens twenty years of files.

How it works

You send the folder, and we handle everything after that.

  1. Send us the folder

    One zip file, through a private upload link. No software to install. We turn every file into a PDF, which opens on any computer and prints the way the original did.

    folder.zip PDF PDF PDF Opens on any computer

    Every .pub file becomes a PDF that opens anywhere.

  2. We clean it up and make it searchable

    We remove the duplicates (the same bulletin saved 50 times) and sort the rest by year and type: bulletins, newsletters, flyers, programs.

    Need the Easter 2014 bulletin, or every newsletter that mentions the building fund? Type it in and find it.

    Easter 2019 2019-04-21 Easter Sunday.pdf 2019-04-14 Palm Sunday.pdf 2019-04 April newsletter.pdf

    Type "Easter 2019" and the bulletin comes right up.

  3. We rebuild the templates you still use

    Your weekly bulletin, your monthly newsletter, your flyer, rebuilt in Canva so you can keep editing them.

    Then a friendly training call for whoever makes the bulletin. We also help you apply for Canva for Nonprofits, which is free for eligible churches.

Questions

Are our files safe with you?

Your files come to us through a private link and are used only for your project. We delete our copy 30 days after delivery. Bulletins often include names and prayer requests, and we treat them that way.

When do we pay?

After delivery. The free file check gives you a fixed quote first, so you know the price before any work starts.

Can't I convert them myself for free?

Often, yes, one file at a time. If you have a handful of files, our free guide shows you how. We're for offices with hundreds or thousands of files and no time to sort them.

Why Canva?

It's easy to learn, it has good bulletin and newsletter layouts, and it's free for many churches through Canva for Nonprofits and for K-12 schools through Canva Education. If you'd rather use Word, tell us.

Will the PDFs look exactly like the originals?

Most will. Some older newsletters, where one story flows across several boxes, need hand fixes. We check every file and fix those before delivery.

What if Publisher still opens on our computer?

Save your files as PDF now, while it still works. Our free guide shows how. If you have hundreds of files, a free file check will tell you what's involved.

We're a school or a nonprofit, not a church. Can you help?

Yes. Same service, same prices.

Twenty years of your church's life is in that folder. Let's keep it.
