    A perpetual (non-subscription) version of Microsoft Publisher is only available as part of certain perpetual Office suites, not as a separate consumer product in the provided information.

    From the context:

    • Publisher is included in various perpetual Office versions (for example, Office LTSC 2021 suites) and will reach end of support on October 1, 2026, when Office LTSC 2021 reaches end of support. After that date, Microsoft 365 subscribers will not be able to access Publisher, but perpetual-license owners can continue to install and use it beyond that date (though without support or updates).
    • To get a current perpetual Office product, the documented path is to buy a one-time purchase version of Office 2024 (such as Office Home 2024 or Office Home & Business 2024). The context does not explicitly state that these 2024 retail suites include Publisher, only that they are the current non-subscription Office offerings.

    Therefore, based on the context:

    1. Perpetual Publisher is obtained by purchasing an eligible perpetual Office suite that includes Publisher (for example, Office LTSC 2021–based suites), through normal retail or volume-licensing channels.
    2. Publisher will not be available at all in Microsoft 365 subscriptions after October 2026.
    3. After October 1, 2026, even perpetual Publisher will be out of support, though still installable and usable.

    The context does not list specific retailers or online stores; it only describes product types and lifecycle.
