Your questions answered
Can I keep editing my Publisher files?
Yes. Open your .pub file to work with its text, pictures and page layouts, then save an editable .mpub project to continue later. Font availability and some advanced or older Publisher features can affect the imported layout. Check your pages after opening; the editor's Import Report identifies items that may need attention. See the editing and import guide.
What can I do for free?
Open, create and edit publications, save editable Megal projects and view a watermarked Print Preview for free. Printing and PDF creation, export or download require Professional: £5.99/month or £59.99/year. Professional includes 1,000 monthly credits for optional Megal AI tools. See Professional plans.
Do I need to install anything?
No installation is needed. Use a modern desktop or laptop browser on Windows, Mac or Chromebook. The editor is designed for desktop and laptop screens; editing on phones and tablets is not supported.

Features
Professional Monthly
£5.99/month
Changing from Yearly: PayPal asks for approval again but does not charge £5.99 at approval. Monthly starts and first bills on the existing Yearly renewal or expiry date. Cancelling stops the scheduled start; paid access continues through the paid period and no refund is issued for unused remaining time.
Secure approval on PayPal. Megal does not receive your card details. Cancel renewal any time; access lasts through the paid period.
Professional Yearly
£59.99/year
Save £11.89 per year
Changing from Monthly: PayPal charges £59.99 immediately at approval. Your current paid month remains intact; the prepaid 12-month term begins when that month ends. Megal does not automatically prorate the current month, and no refund is issued for unused remaining time.
Secure approval on PayPal. Megal does not receive your card details. Cancel renewal any time; access lasts through the paid period.
Megal AI Credit add-ons
Extra AI Credits are optional and are always a separate PayPal subscription from Professional, with their own approval, billing date and cancellation. Choose Monthly or save two months with Yearly (12 months for the price of 10). The selected credit allowance refreshes monthly on either billing option. During a Professional billing change, an AI conversion is offered only if you already have an active, successfully paid Extra AI subscription that is not ending; no Extra AI subscription is added automatically. Changing both subscriptions requires two separate PayPal approvals. Monthly-to-Yearly AI starts at its own next billing date without a yearly charge at approval; Yearly-to-Monthly starts and first bills at its own yearly renewal. Cancelling stops renewal, paid access continues to the paid-through date, and unused time is not refunded. Prices include VAT and unused credits expire at each monthly refresh.

Monthly and yearly Megal AI Credit options
Professional (£5.99/month or £59.99/year) includes 1,000 credits refreshed monthly on either paid billing option. Extra AI Credits are a separate PayPal subscription: Basic £5/month or £50/year for 2,500 total credits, Plus £20/month or £200/year for 6,000, Pro £90/month or £900/year for 20,000, Business £200/month or £2,000/year for 42,000, or Enterprise £500/month or £5,000/year for 102,000. Yearly gives 12 months for the price of 10 and credits still refresh monthly. The Account screen shows the Professional and AI dates separately. An AI add-on only grants and renews credits while Professional is successfully paid and active. Prices include VAT. Credits do not roll over.

Page Setup
Choose a publication type, page size, orientation, or enter a custom page size.
Blank Sizes
Standard page sizes and blank publication layouts.
Print & Imposition
Preview the exact Megal layout as single pages, a booklet, labels, or several pages or copies on each sheet.
Export Finished Page Images
Uses the exact-layout finished-page renderer and excludes editor guides and selection handles. Export PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP or scalable SVG. All Pages downloads once as a local ZIP.
Master Page(s)
Create repeated page artwork, then apply a master to individual pages.
Review
Check the publication before print or template installation.
Prepress Preparation
Review print-production intent while keeping Exact Layout and tagged PDF output authoritative.
Prepress settings remain advisory until final export. Output Preview can request ICC transformation and native Separation/DeviceN spot colourants; the controlled PDF writer adds a PDF/X claim only after every enforced final-file check passes. Independent printer preflight remains recommended.
Preparation target and output intent
No ICC profile is loaded in this browser session.
Profile bytes are sent only with an export that embeds the output intent. They are never added to MPUB, account autosave, or document metadata.
Custom spot-ink intent
Spot inks use CMYK visual alternates while editing. Output Preview can preserve supported, topmost solid shapes as native Separation/DeviceN colourants using an exact-underlay overlay; unsupported or unsafe objects are refused instead of silently flattened.
Selected-object assignment
Select one object to assign spot metadata.
Advisory preflight
No PDF export has been run with the current session profile.

Mail Merge
Choose an Excel, CSV, or TSV list, insert fields such as [Surname], then preview or print one publication for every record.
Recipient rows stay in this browser session, as do searches, filters and exclusions. The MPUB stores only field names, formatting, the source file/worksheet name and merge layout so you can safely reconnect the file later; no recipient values are uploaded or embedded.

Fields appear after a list is selected.
Field formatting
Address, greeting and picture fields
Catalog Merge / multiple records per page
Design one record on the selected template page; the whole page is scaled into each label, ticket, directory or catalogue cell. Preview and print are generated locally.
Identity Sets
Store reusable personal or business details in this browser and insert them into any publication.
Identity Sets are stored only in this browser profile. Linked fields resolve for preview and print; the saved document contains the field token, not a hidden contact database.

Privacy Policy
Megal Publisher stores publication files on your local machine unless you choose to use autosave features tied to your account.
Account, subscription, and autosave metadata are processed only for authentication, subscription enforcement, and restoring your latest layout state.
Pack & Go temporarily sends the current publication to Megal solely to assemble the requested ZIP; the response is marked no-store, the temporary server ZIP is deleted immediately after packaging, and this workflow retains no copy.
Microsoft Publisher .pub import sends only the PUB file you choose to Megal's same-site importer. It reads the request upload temporary file in memory without retaining the original source file. The editable content created by a completed import is returned to your browser and becomes part of your publication.
Word, Excel and PowerPoint import sends only the Office file you choose to Megal's same-site importer. It reads the request upload temporary file without retaining the source or extracted parts, never fetches external Office relationships, and never runs macros. The editable content created by a completed import becomes part of your publication.
During the administrator OneDrive pilot, OneDrive access is optional and uses delegated permission to the Microsoft account you choose. OneDrive-bound publications bypass Megal account autosave and are opened from and saved back to your OneDrive file. Microsoft tokens stay in the current browser tab and are removed when you disconnect OneDrive or sign out of Megal Publisher.
Megal Publisher uses first-party measurement to understand visits, marketing app-link and subscription call-to-action clicks, editor openings, first document changes, output-paywall views and subscription clicks, logins, registration starts and results, plan views, checkout starts and results, and .pub import starts and results. Traffic reports store only the broad device class Phone, Tablet or Desktop, not raw User-Agent strings or screen dimensions; a signed-in account retains its latest broad class. Signed-in journey events may be linked to the account inside the protected admin area so its last recorded activity, return visits and completed product steps can be understood. Megal also keeps a short-lived live-presence record so protected administrators can see people with a visible Megal Publisher tab during the last two minutes, grouped as non-registered, registered Free or registered paid. Administrator activity and recognised automated traffic are excluded. Non-registered browsers use pseudonymous hashed identifiers; signed-in entries are linked to the account name, email and current plan inside the protected admin area. The current site path, broad device class and whether the tab is being actively used or viewed may be shown. Live presence does not store a raw IP address, filename or publication content; a one-way IP fingerprint is used only to suppress internal and automated traffic, and raw presence rows are deleted after ten minutes.
With your permission, SAM also remembers the advert or reply link that brought you here for up to 30 days and relates it to registration, successful imports and your first Professional payment. You can withdraw this choice using Analytics choices. With your permission, Megal Publisher also uses Google Analytics. For a signed-in customer who permits analytics, Megal may retain the Google Analytics client identifier needed to send the first verified Professional subscription payment to Google Analytics from its server. The conversion contains the subscription plan, GBP value and a payment transaction reference for deduplication; it does not contain publication content. Completed registration and paid-subscription events are shared with Megal Publisher's linked Google Ads account for campaign measurement and bidding. Advertising storage, advertising user data and personalised advertising remain disabled. You can change your analytics choice at any time; denying analytics clears stored Google Analytics identifiers and prevents unsent subscription conversions from being delivered.
Megal AI generation is optional and requires a registered, signed-in Megal Publisher account. Free accounts receive a one-time trial of two image and two text generations; the trial does not renew. Professional costs £5.99 monthly or £59.99 yearly, includes 1,000 Megal AI Credits refreshed monthly on either paid billing option and provides access to the AI tools. Optional paid AI add-ons provide a separate monthly credit allowance and can be billed monthly or yearly; yearly service still refreshes credits monthly. The Professional and add-on allowances have separate refresh or renewal dates and do not roll over. For generation, your description is sent securely through Megal's server to OpenAI. Megal AI Template Designer may use OpenAI web search to retrieve public information about the requested subject and general design conventions. Megal uses that research to generate original wording, imagery and editable design objects; it does not deliberately copy a particular third-party template or web photograph. Generated output is embedded in your publication.
Your Megal account stores AI allowance counters and a transaction ledger so usage and refunds can be enforced. Development logs record action type, model, credit amount, timing and error information, but not the text of your prompt. OpenAI credentials remain on Megal's server and are never sent to the browser. Signing out blocks all AI access.
Mail Merge recipient rows, searches, filters and exclusions are read in your browser and kept only for the current editor session; they are not uploaded to Megal, included in the MPUB file, or written to account autosave. The source file and worksheet name, field names, formatting and merge layout may be stored so the list can be reconnected, without storing recipient values. Excel import downloads the SheetJS parser from its official CDN when required, but the workbook itself remains in your browser. If you explicitly enable HTTPS picture fields, your browser requests each image from the address in that field and the remote host may receive normal request information. Identity Sets are stored only in this browser profile and are never uploaded as a Megal-hosted contact database. Personal Brand Kits, Saved Templates and Building Blocks stay in browser storage, are not uploaded to Megal, and leave that storage only when you explicitly export or download a backup.

Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 4 September 2026
Your content and ownership
You retain ownership of your documents, images, fonts, templates, text, and other content. Megal Software Limited does not claim ownership of your content, but you grant Megal Software Limited the limited permission needed to process, display, convert, store, export, and transmit that content so the service can operate.
Megal Publisher ownership and licence
Megal Publisher, including its software, source code, interface, layout, designs, text, graphics, branding, and functionality, is the proprietary property of Megal Software Limited.
Unauthorized copying, reproduction, distribution, modification, republication, resale, or creation of derivative works is prohibited except where required by applicable law.
You may use Megal Publisher only through the official online service and only in line with the plan attached to your account. You must not attempt to bypass licensing, account, subscription, security, domain, watermark, or usage controls.
Accounts and acceptable use
You are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for all activity on your account. Only one active login is permitted per account at a time. You must not share access, interfere with the service, misuse automated access, upload malicious files, or use the service for unlawful, infringing, harmful, or abusive content.
You remain responsible for the documents, images, fonts, templates, text, and other content that you upload, edit, export, or publish using the service. You must only use content where you own the rights or have permission to use it.
Megal AI Template Designer may research public web information and general layout conventions to create a new composition. It is not a template-copying or image-licensing service. Generated layouts, wording and images may be inaccurate or may resemble existing material unintentionally, so you must review the result and obtain any permissions needed before publishing. A generated view of a named place or item is an AI interpretation, not a guaranteed copy of an official or licensed photograph.
Megal Software Limited may suspend or restrict access where it reasonably believes an account is being misused, used to attack the service, used to infringe rights, used to bypass payment or licensing controls, or used in breach of these terms.
Subscriptions, payments, and cancellation
Paid subscriptions are billed by PayPal on a recurring basis until cancelled. The selected plan price, billing frequency, and PayPal approval screen apply when you subscribe.
Megal Publisher Professional is available as a £5.99 monthly subscription or a £59.99 yearly subscription. A Megal AI add-on is a separate subscription available monthly or yearly; the yearly price is 10 monthly payments for 12 months of service. If you hold both subscriptions, each bills independently until you cancel it. The included 1,000 Professional credits and the selected AI add-on allowance both refresh monthly on either billing frequency. Unused credits in each allowance expire when that allowance refreshes. A Megal AI add-on requires a successfully paid and active Professional subscription. If the Professional payment is pending, fails, is reversed, or ends, paid AI access and the issue or reset of add-on credits are paused until PayPal confirms that Professional is paid and active again. The AI add-on can be cancelled separately from your Account page.
Before starting PayPal checkout, you must separately tick the Terms & Conditions checkbox shown for Professional Monthly, Professional Yearly, or the particular Megal AI package you select. Ticking one subscription's checkbox does not accept another subscription. Your acceptance time, selected plan and applicable terms version are recorded with the subscription. You will then review and approve that subscription's recurring payment separately on PayPal.
Changing an active Professional Monthly subscription to Professional Yearly requires you to consent again on PayPal. PayPal charges £59.99 immediately when you approve the change. The remainder of your current paid month is preserved; the prepaid 12-month term is appended to it, begins on the current monthly end date, and next renews 12 months after that yearly start date. Megal does not automatically prorate the current monthly period or issue an automatic refund for it.
Changing an active Professional Yearly subscription to Professional Monthly also requires you to consent again on PayPal. PayPal does not charge £5.99 when you approve this change. The monthly plan is scheduled to start only on the existing Yearly next billing or expiry date, and the first monthly charge is due on that date. Your paid Yearly access remains unchanged until then.
An Extra AI billing conversion is offered during a Professional billing change only when you already have an active Extra AI subscription. It is not shown when you have no active Extra AI subscription and Megal does not enrol you in one automatically. Professional and Extra AI remain separate subscriptions, so changing both requires two separate PayPal approvals. When changing Professional Monthly to Yearly, your existing monthly AI add-on stays monthly unless you choose its Yearly conversion; the Yearly AI billing starts on the add-on's own next billing date. When changing Professional Yearly to Monthly, an existing yearly AI add-on is scheduled back to monthly at its own Yearly next billing date, with no AI charge at approval.
If you cancel Professional Monthly, Professional Yearly, or a monthly or yearly AI add-on, including a subscription with a scheduled plan change, cancellation stops the next renewal or any scheduled unpaid plan start. Access and credits already paid for continue until the next billing date or the end of the paid period. No refund is issued for unused remaining time in a paid month, paid year, prepaid appended Yearly term, or paid add-on period. Cancelling Professional does not automatically cancel the separate AI add-on; cancel it separately if you also want its renewal to stop.
Failed payments, unpaid outstanding balances, PayPal holds, reversals, chargebacks, or cancelled payment authorisations may suspend paid features until PayPal confirms that the subscription payment is completed. Megal Publisher may check subscription status before allowing paid features such as actual printing or PDF creation, export or download.
Subscription features, prices, and plan limits may be changed for future billing periods. Where practical, material changes to paid plans will be shown in the service or during subscription management before they affect future billing.
Service availability and changes
Subscriptions are billed continuously by PayPal until cancelled. Megal Publisher is provided as an online service without any warranty that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, continuously available, or meet any particular uptime level.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Megal Software Limited gives no warranty for service availability, uptime, data transmission, browser compatibility, or uninterrupted access.
Megal Software Limited may update, improve, restrict, suspend, or remove features where needed for maintenance, security, compatibility, legal compliance, payment enforcement, or operation of the service. You should keep your own backup copies of important files and exported documents.
The service depends on third-party systems including browsers, operating systems, hosting providers, payment providers, email providers, fonts, and network connections. Megal Software Limited is not responsible for delays, failures, loss, or restrictions caused by third-party systems outside its reasonable control.
Documents, exports, and print output
Megal Publisher is provided for general desktop publishing and document design use. You are responsible for checking exported files, print settings, colours, bleeds, fonts, spelling, layout, dimensions, and printer requirements before production, distribution, or publication.
Conversion, import, SVG handling, PDF export, colour conversion, print preparation, and template rendering are provided as tools only. Megal Software Limited does not guarantee that any imported file, exported file, colour value, bleed, font, layout, or print result will be accurate, complete, compatible with a particular printer, or suitable for a particular purpose.
Warranty disclaimer
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Megal Publisher is supplied "as is", "with all faults", and "as available". Megal Software Limited excludes all warranties, conditions, guarantees, representations, or other terms that are not expressly stated in these terms, including implied terms about satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, security, compatibility, or availability.
Liability and legal rights
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Megal Software Limited is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary loss or damage, or for loss of profit, revenue, business, goodwill, opportunity, data, files, content, subscriptions, production costs, print costs, or wasted expenditure.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Megal Software Limited has no monetary liability for free-account use of Megal Publisher. For paid accounts, Megal Software Limited's total liability for claims connected with the service is limited to the amount you paid for Megal Publisher during the one month before the event giving rise to the claim.
Megal Software Limited is not liable for failure or delay caused by events outside its reasonable control, including payment-provider issues, hosting failures, internet outages, cyberattacks, power failures, legal restrictions, industrial disputes, natural events, or emergency maintenance.
The liability limits above apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. They do not apply only to the minimum extent the law requires, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence and liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales unless mandatory local law requires otherwise.
These terms may be updated from time to time. If the updated terms materially affect your use of the service, Megal Software Limited may give notice in the service or by another reasonable method. Continued use of Megal Publisher after updated terms are made available means you accept the updated terms.
