Exporting from Pages Mavericks to pdf not working

I want to export my Pages Mavericks document to a pdf. It's not working. Everytime I do it, a box comes that says, it's not possible. What is going wrong? Why can't I export to pdf?

Either some of them have the same name or they are to big in Mb for your Pages to convert. It doesn't matter where they come from, they are all in the saved document. Downsize them before you add them to the Pages document.

  • File - Export from Preview, iPhoto etc does not work

    Lately, normal operations from OSX-programs are not working as expected on my MacBook Air mid-2013 running OSX 10.8.5. I can reproduce in PreView and iPhoto that operations like File, Export and File, Duplicate do not work - there is just no response.
    Upon opening console, I see the following error messages:

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Why is exporting to PDF not working?

    Why is exporting to PDF not working?

    Dear Claudio,
    I know it wasn't much to go on but I got your attention!
    I work for a charity and use a program called "Donor Perfect".
    It has a feature that when you generate a report it gives you the option to export to MSWord, Excel, and PDF.
    Below is the step by step description of what happens.
     After log on ......
         1. Click on Reports
         2. Listings
         3. Report Category(any)
         4. Select Record type(any)
         5. Select report options (any selection filter that fits or Build a filter) and sort order(any)
         6. Enter title (accordingly)
         7. Click on Preview
         8. When next screen opens with report visible - in "Report Print preview" line above report choose PDF icon
         9. Export to PDF window opens
         10. click on Page range-ALL
         11. What to print-All pages in Range
         12. Save as C:\DPW32\dpsumm.pdf
         13. collate
         14. number of copies(1)
         15. Click on "Screen" 
         16. Click on "Display Conversion Status"
         17. Then "OK"
         18. After conversion status reaches "100%" nothing happens -screen does not change!
    Then I minimize DP screen and I go to Start menu 
         1. Click on Start
         2. Then "My Computer"
         3. Local Disk "C"
         4. Dpw32
         5. Look for "dpsumm" file with today's date
         6. Size of file says 0 KB and that's it!!!!
    In previous versions of DP (8 and 9)
    the PDF would open on the screen as soon as the Step 18 was finished, then I could save it with an identifying name to a different folder and use it as an attachment that a Donor could receive by e-mail.
    I hope I can get back to that because now I have to convert to "Word" (Which takes a long time)then from that I have to create PDF from Acrobat. too many steps ..... if I have 20-30 reports it's too cumbersome.
    Waiting for your suggestions,

  • MS Word spellcheck goes crazy after export from Pages

    I exported two long documents (250 pages each) from Pages 5.0 to Word (.docx) format. When I open the documents in Word for Mac 2011 everything seems fine – until the spellcheck runs. It comes up with hundreds of false positives.
    For instance, the following words are all marked as misspelled: if, understanding, wasn't, isn't, student,  – and so on and so on, throughout the whole document. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it.
    Previous to export I had checked spelling in Pages. So there shouldn't have been any misspelled words at all, let alone all these crazy false positives.
    Has anybody experienced this? Has anyone got any advice on how to fix this? I know I can just turn off spellchecking in the Word documents, but I'd like to keep it on.
    I'm running OS X Mavericks (10.9) on a mid 2012 MacBook Pro.
    Thanks.

    I know what you mean, fruhulda. But MS Word is working just fine with all my other documents that weren't exported from Pages.
    It makes me wonder if there is something underying the text when the files are exported, something that is throwing off the MS Word spell checker.
    My next test will be to export to text then open in Word. (My documents have very little formatting.) If spellcheck works fine then, I'm forced to wonder whether something about the export process from Pages to Word is problemmatic, or at least problemmatic for Word. But exporting to Word is the whole point, so there shoulnd't be these issues.
    In other words, how can you have a feature that claims to export to Word that can't handle something as basic as spell check?
    My documents (books) ultimately need to reside in Word so the publisher can work with them. I like working in Pages. It feels cleaner than Word. So I work in Pages and then export. But with this problem I'm seriously considering whether I shouldn't just write in Word from the start and avoid the problems that can come with exports. Somehow I feel like there are bound to be more. 

  • The file "Acceptance Letter.pages" doesn't exist. Since installing Yosemite on MacBook Pro I cannot save or export from Pages. Just get the message at beginning of this post. How to solve problem?

    I cannot save or export from Pages since installing Yosemite on MacBook Pro . I just get the message at beginning of this post “Acceptance Letter.pages” doesn’t exist or whatever file title I have inserted How to solve problem?

    Thanks Peter but I was not seeking to store with I-Cloud. In fact I never store documents with I-cloud.
    I was in fact trying to store the files to Documents, which is where I usually keep such things.
    Have now discovered that if I leave the file untiled and simply close it, rather than saving it then it will save, oddly, to Documents. I then have to re-title it and move to the folder I want it in.
    Despite the above, even once it is titled and saved in Documents then if I reopen it I still cannot then Export it to a Word or PDF file. I still just get the message . xxxxxx.pages does not exist!
    Bad news as I am constantly exporting documents to Word and PDF to send to others who do not use a Mac

  • Some PDFs not working in Preview. Mac created PDFS work but windows created PDFS dont

    Some PDFs not working in Preview. I installed adobe reader and then deleted it because the software was aweful and PDFs have been haveing issues ever since. I can open up PDFs created on my Mac in preview just fine...
    But when I try and open a PDF created on a windows computer it says:
    "Please wait...

    I am not sure why where the PDF was created would make a difference but couldnt help but notice that was the difference between the PDF files that work and the ones that give that message. I can view the PDFs on a windows computer just fine and never had issues untill adobe, it seems to have messed up PDFs on my Mac and I am so frustrated with them. I have searched my computer for any remaining adobe files, deleted them and restarted my computer but I am still getting this message.

  • Export from Pages to ePub??

    Help! I need to export from Pages to epub.  I've read the tutorial a hundred times and it says that when you click on "export" one of the options should be epub.  However,  my only options are pdf, word, or rtf.  What am I doing wrong? 

    If your admin bought the iWork package as a DVD, Pages '09 version 4.0.3 is really the late version available on this media.
    As fruhulda wrote, you must get and apply an updater (maybe you must ask the admin to do that, I know that some of them are a bit picky).
    PS, since last wednesday, the best Apple tool to create ePub is the free iBooks Author.

  • A warning re exporting from Pages to Word

    I am glad for germantownmark (on 4th February) that he was able to resolve the exporting of a Pages document to Word and that in the event he did not need Fruhulda's help.
    However, I wish to point out that Exporting from Pages is not necessarily always successful.
    In particular the exporting of MathType expressions is as yet unsuccessful. Although the main text will be OK the MathType will appear a seeming miles above the line of text. Which is unacceptable.
    (An "Export Warning" first appears which contains the words "Exported Math Type Equations can't be edited". And then one can see the outcome for oneself when the resulting Word document is opened...)
    I became aware of this problem ages ago and notified Apple Support - and have been given a case number for it. But so far there has been no update of Pages which eliminates this problem.
    NB Because MathType is also accessible elsewhere in iWork09 such an update should be across the board.

    Why is it unacceptable ?
    Apple never stated that exporting Pages to Word will give an exact replicate of the original.
    They just stated that you may export, no lees, no more.
    It's time to learn the meaning of advertisement language.

  • Pages numbers and keynotes not working on handoff, but everything else is?

    Pages numbers and keynotes not working on handoff, but everything else is, map, mail etc. Am I alone?

    Really appreciate your help with this. I am a bit of a novice here.. but.. After some more searching on this issue I notice your comments (cut/pasted  below)  with respect to this router and bridging mode. You mentioned that I should update my firmware on this router and that this would (if I am interpreting your reply correctly) facilitate my LAN to LAN connection and of course using this router simply as an access point and more to the point -  having the use of the guest network. So my question is even if I did update firmware,  seems I would still require 3rd party software to make this work? (re your last sentence in your comments below)  Just need to understand the process and determine whether or not it is worth it (or maybe I should upgrade the router) but I don't want to change the configs of the network wired router at this time... and need to use the E2500 or facsimile as  simply an access point with  guest network functionality,  Thanks much appreciated.
    "Again: some E series routers already support wired bridging in firmware, i.e. to use the router as simple access point.
    This is and was always possible using a LAN-LAN setup instead.
    The problem with the LAN-LAN setup is, however, that you have some limitations accessing the network storage or network printer, e.g. the router doesn't have the correct time and you cannot access the storage from remote using port forwarding through your main router.
    These limitations have been overcome with the wired bridge mode (internet connection type = bridge mode).
    But again: this has absolutely nothing to do with wireless bridging. That's something completely different and is not supported on Linksys routers in any firmware version so far. To do wireless bridging (i.e. the Linksys routers connects wirelessly to another main router) you need 3rd party firmware."
