Desktop Publishing - free
Seven templates are free - a flyer, a two-page newsletter, a poster, a greeting card, a certificate, a business card and the new event timetable - plus blank pages in every common size. Desktop Publishing Pro adds the full library of 37.

Click File, top left. The New page shows every template.
Flyers, Newsletters, Posters, Cards, Certificates, Calendars, Brochures, Business and more.
It opens as a new publication. Every part is an ordinary text box, picture frame or shape.
Change the words, drop in your photos, and save it as your own .m2dp file.
Help: Templates has every option in detail.
Free in Desktop Publishing. No time limit, no account and no ads - in the Windows app and in your browser, and your publications never leave your PC. Desktop Publishing Pro is there when you want to edit .pub files, the full template library, mail merge, calendars or booklets.
37: seven free, and 30 more in Desktop Publishing Pro - menus, invitations, vouchers, a tri-fold brochure, a four-page newsletter, calendars, a folded booklet and more.
No - picture frames are placeholders, so there's nothing to licence. Double-click a frame to add your own picture.

Certificates, name badges, place cards and labels from a CSV or Excel list.

Month and year calendars with UK bank holidays, and folded booklets in page order.
