How can you save a pages document so it can be opened in Microsoft Word

How can I save a pages document so it can be opened in a Windows (Word) program?

Word can't read .pages documents. You have to export the Pages  document to a Word document. File > export or share > Word
Download the Pages User Guide from your Pages Help menu to learn more about how Pages works.

  • How can I open old Microsoft Word Documents in Pages 9?

    My new version of Pages '09 (Ver 4.1) is rejecting older versins of Word documents as unrecognized formats.  Is there a means by which I can convince Pages to open these?

    Peter,
    LibreOffice was an excellent suggestion.  It solved my problem and introduced me to what I know will be a valuable utility.
    Thanks.

    How do I save a pages document that a pc can open.  eg jpeg, rtf pdf etc?

    I assume you're using Pages on an iOS device since that is the forum you've posted in.
    Tap on the wrench/spanner at the upper right & choose Share & Print. From there you can choose to e-mail or save to iTunes & then choose a format such as PDF or Word.
    If you should be asking about Pages on a Mac, use File > Export & choose Word or PDF.

  • HT3705 How do I save a Pages document to jpeg so that I can share on social media?

    I have created a brochure and would like to post it on Facebook. How do I save a Pages document to jpeg so that I can share on social media and email? Do I have to save it as a jpeg or what other format can I save it in?

    Ashe,
    In Pages, Print to "PDF > Open PDF in Preview". From Preview, File > Export to the format or your choosing, one page at a time. For text, PNG would be better than JPG.

    How do you convert a pages document to a pdf document?

    Often the reason Share > via e-mail doesn't work is an "illegal" character in the file name. The most common problem character is a / but any character not allowed in Windows can be a problem.

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture file?

    How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture or jpeg file? I am wanting to make the image I created my background on my macbook pro.

    After I had the document image the way I wanted it, I saved it as a web page and went from there. Below are the steps starting after I did the "save as" option in Word:
    1) Select "Save As Web Page". I changed the location from documents to pictures when the window came up to save it as a web page.
    2) Go to "Finder" on you main screen, or if it's on your main toolbar at the bottom.
    3) Click on the "Pictures" tab and find the file you just re-saved as a web page. (I included "web page" or something similar in the new title so I could easily find the correct file I was looking for)
    4) Open the correct file and then "right click" on the actual image. (Use 2 fingers to do so on a Mac)
    5) Select 'Use Image As Desktop Picture", and voilà! The personally created image, or whatever it is that you wanted, is now your background.
    **One problem I encountered while doing this is that the image would show up like it was right-aligned in relation to the whole screen. The only way I could figure how to fix this was to go back to the very original document in Word, (the one before it was saved as a web page), and move everything over to the left.
    I hope this helps someone else who was as frustrated as I was with something that I thought would have been very simple to do! If you have any tips or suggestions of your own, please feel free to share. : )

  • On iPad can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages app?

    On iPad, can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages application?  If so how do I perform this activity?

    Yes you can open Word files. If it is an email attachment you can simply tap and hold down on the icon and select "open in" and then select Pages - as long as you have the Pages app on the iPad.
    Where is the file on your iPad or how do you want to move it to the iPad?

  • How do I save a Pages document unlocked

    My partner is sending me Pages docs,  but they are all locked, so I can't edit.  How do you save pages docs unlocked

    Hi JC,
    Can you open and read the documents in Pages?
    If not, do they open, and are they readable in Preview, MS Word, or one of the open source Office applications?
    If the documents open in Pages, they are likely Pages documents; if you can then read them, the documents themselves are not 'locked.'
    They may consist of text in text boxes, and if so, the text boxes may be locked to prevent accidental changes to their contents or position. To unlock, select the box you want to edit. You should see a small 'x' at each corner of the box when it is selected. Go Arrange (menu) > Unlock to unlock the selected object (in this case a text box).
    More detail, please on what behvoiurs lead you to describe the documents as "locked."
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How do i save a pages document onto a memory stick

    Please can you help? I am trying to save a pages document onto a memory stick but when i drag the file into the memory stick it just bounces back.

    If its a new document click Save As and then navigat to the memory stick. BTW how is the memory stick formatted, if it's NFS as I suspect that is a MS Windows format which means the stick has to be re-formatted. Please advise if the stick will be shared with MS Windows machines.

    How can I open an encryted Microsoft access file on an iMac?

    As Office for Mac doesn't include Access, I'm not at all sure you can.
    You could try Open Office, NeoOffice or Libre Office (all free, open source) and see if their database applications can do it.
