    PubKeep on a Mac, in a browser or on a tablet

    PubKeep comes two ways: a desktop app for Windows and Mac, and a web version at app.pubkeep.com that runs in your browser. Every license includes both, with the same license key.

    • On a Windows PC or a Mac, use the desktop app. It’s the one we recommend for everyday editing and printing, and it keeps working when you’re offline. See Install PubKeep.
    • On a Chromebook, phone, tablet or Linux computer, use the web version. There’s no desktop app for those.
    1. Go to app.pubkeep.com in your browser.
    2. Open a .pub or .pubk file. You can look and edit as much as you like.
    3. To save, print or export, PubKeep asks you to sign in. Click File > Account.
    4. Click Enter license key.
    5. Paste the key from your PubKeep email into the License key box and click Unlock.

    No. Every license includes it, with the same license key. To buy a license, see the buy page.

    Some browsers don’t let a website save over a file on your computer. In those browsers, PubKeep saves a .pubk copy to your downloads instead. Open that copy next time.

    Click File > Print as usual. PubKeep then hands the pages to your browser’s print window, where you pick the printer.

    Not as a desktop app. Use the web version at app.pubkeep.com.
