Understanding PMT and PUB file formats

PMT files are typically associated with Microsoft PhotoDraw, a discontinued vector graphics and image editing program. PMT files store templates or graphics projects created in PhotoDraw. On the other hand, PUB files are the native format for Microsoft Publisher, a desktop publishing application used for creating brochures, flyers, newsletters, and other print materials.

Why convert PMT to PUB?

Converting a PMT file to a PUB file allows you to edit and enhance your graphics or templates in Microsoft Publisher, which offers more advanced layout and publishing features. This is especially useful if you want to repurpose old PhotoDraw templates for modern publishing projects.

How to convert PMT to PUB

There is no direct, one-click solution for converting PMT files to PUB format, as these formats are from different Microsoft applications with limited compatibility. However, you can use the following workaround:

  1. Open the PMT file in Microsoft PhotoDraw (if available). If you do not have PhotoDraw, try using a virtual machine or an older PC with the software installed.
  2. Export the PMT file to a common format such as JPEG, PNG, or WMF by using File → Export or File → Save As in PhotoDraw.
  3. Open Microsoft Publisher and create a new PUB document.
  4. Insert the exported image into your PUB file using Insert → Pictures.
  5. Save your work as a PUB file by selecting File → Save As and choosing the PUB format.

Recommended software for conversion

  • Microsoft PhotoDraw (for opening and exporting PMT files)
  • Microsoft Publisher (for creating and editing PUB files)
  • Online converters are not available for direct PMT to PUB conversion, so manual export and import is the best approach.

Tips for best results

  • Export PMT files in the highest possible resolution to maintain quality in Publisher.
  • If you need to edit text or vector elements, consider exporting as WMF (Windows Metafile) for better compatibility with Publisher.
  • Always keep a backup of your original PMT files before conversion.
