Microsoft Publisher is a desktop publishing application from Microsoft.

Publisher is an entry-level desktop publishing application from Microsoft, differing from Word in that the emphasis is placed on page layout and design, rather than text composition and proofing.

Publisher is included in higher-end editions of Microsoft Office, reflecting Microsoft's emphasis on the application as an easy-to-use and less expensive alternative to the "heavyweights". The focus is on the small business market where firms do not have dedicated design professionals available to make marketing materials and other documents. However, it has a relatively small share of the desktop publishing market, which is dominated by Adobe InDesign and QuarkXPress.
