Can not email pages document as pdf
Every time that I try to send pages doc as pdf, I get the following message: Couldn't create message attachment. iwork encountered an error while attempting to create the attachment data.
Greetings Paulydf,
It seems you are experiencing an issue when attempting to send documents via email from Pages. Keep in mind that emailing from Pages requires your email account to be associated with the Apple Mail app. Are you currently using Apple Mail? The user guide may help in this situation:

Help! Can't email pages document in pdf
I'm trying to send a one-page letter that is to be inserted into a book. The recipient needs the document in PDF format. I saved it in PDF but when I try to attach it, the whole text prints out into the email instead of a link to an electronic pdf file. I am able to attach an electronic file of the Pages version, just not PDF. I'm using Hotmail and a 2011 MacBook Air with Pages '09 version 4.3.
BCG,
You are sending a PDF file. It's a feature of Mac Mail, and perhaps other email clients, that the content of a 1-page pdf is displayed automatically, but be assured there is an attachment there that your recepient can save and work with normally.

Can't export Pages document to PDF
I have been trying to export a Pages document to PDF a number of times and get the following message: "The application Pages quit unexpectedly." I have rebooted and still can't export. Can anyone help, please? Thanks so much.
paramita,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
That particular issue usually indicates either a bad font or a corrupt image. Or both. Try validating your fonts using Font Book. If you've got a corrupt font, change fonts in your document. If Font Book tells you all your fonts are healthy, try pulling half of the images out of your document, then saving again as a PDF. If it works, you know you've got a corrupt image in the half you pulled out.

I can not export Pages document into a Word file
Please help! I have researched many feeds in regards to my issue. None of the suggestions seem to work. I need to export a Pages document into a Word file and get the error messge "an unknown error has occured". I have attempted to "Save as" and export directly from the file menu. All of my fonts have been validated. Not sure what my other options are. Can anyone give any insight? Thanks
In case if the files are missing for the once you have in your book module they can have issues exporting as PDF or JPEG.
Please check the same and replace the files which are missing or attach the same and then try exporting the same.

Suddenly can not open pages document
So, I'm faced with a sudden problem. I cant open any pages documents. When I try, there is no error message, the document just does not open. The application itself opens fine, I just can't open any files. When I tried to send the document through gmail, it said that it was zero bytes, so it could not be attached. I am running pages 5.5.2, and osx yosemite. I updated my software within the last two weeks. I don't know when the document was last editied exactly, but I know it was after the updates were made. When I first started trying to open this document, Pages told me there was an update, and I ignored it, thinking that I would do it later. However, I tried to go to the App store to see the update just now, and there was none to be found.
i think if you edit a pages doc on the cloud it wont let you open it with desktop pages - best idea open on the cloud -then copy text, paste to desktop pages. Its all part of Apples 'problem with computer? - buy a new one' policy i guess, its to force you to upgrade the Os...

Can Not Open Pages Document (iOS) anymore (iCloud)
Hello,
I have an Issue with pages for iOS. I created a Document on my iPad and tried to open it with my iPhone. After Install Pages on iPhone and Sync with iCloud, the thumbnail of the document shows an inkpot for specific this document. The other docs works fine and the thumbnail Shows the First Doc- Page. Since I install pages on iPhone, it is Not possible (on iPad too) to Open the Document.
In my oppinion there was a Sync Problem with iCloud. Did Anyone have those problems, or a Solution to restore this Doc?Not sure about going through Dropbox as I use iCloud to share docs. I, too, was getting the error message about opening docs in Pages on iPad. Found a fix in another thread - rebotted the iPad - close all apps, then hold down both buttons at the same time. The Apple logo comes up for about 30 seconds then the pad comes back on. Docs open now. Hope this helps.

I have created an 100 page booklet in Pages, with many photographs, and much written word, can I export it to ePub, and make an electronic book, because it says that "Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template"?....
Basically what I want to do is publish the document into both an eDocument, and a hard copy document. What is the best way to do this?No Peter, this statement came right off the Apple ePub statement when outlining how to use ePub. the full context is:
Creating ePub files with Pages
Summary
Learn how to create ePub files with Pages.
Products Affected
Pages '09
ePub is an open ebook standard produced by the International Digital Publishing Forum. Pages ’09 lets you export your documents in ePub format for reading with iBooks on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
iBooks supports both ePub and PDF file formats, and you can export both from Pages.
When to use ePub or PDF
Use ePub when text is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a book, a report, a paper, a thesis, or classroom reading material.
More details on using ePubUse PDF when layout is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a brochure, a flyer, or a manual with multiple illustrations.
More details on using PDF
Creating an ePub Document to Read in iBooks
You can export any Pages word processing document to the ePub file format for reading in an ePub reader, such as the iBooks application on the iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Documents created in page layout templates can’t be exported to the ePub format.
Documents exported to ePub format will look different than their Pages counterparts. If you want to get the best document fidelity between the Pages and ePub formats, style your Pages document with paragraph styles and other formatting attributes allowed in an ePub file. A sample document is provided on the Apple Support site that features styles and guidelines to help you create a Pages document that’s optimized for export to the ePub file format, which you can use as a template or a guide. To learn more about using paragraph styles in Pages, see the topics under the heading “Working with Styles” in the Pages built-in help.
To read your ePub document in iBooks on your mobile device, you must transfer the ePub file that you create onto your device.
To use the “ePub Best Practices” sample documentTo learn more about using the ePub format and get a better feel for how a Pages document might appear as a book in iBooks, it’s a good idea to download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document. After reading the guidelines and instructions within the document, you can use it as a template to create your own document. You can also import the styles from the sample document into a new document you create.
Download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document at the following web address:
http://images.apple.com/support/pages/docs/ePub_Best_Practices_EN.zip
Do either of the following:Use the sample document as a template.Import the paragraph styles from the sample document into a new or existing Pages document.
Export the document you create to ePub format to see how it looks in iBooks.
Preparing an existing Pages document for export to ePub format
Documents exported to the ePub format automatically appear with page breaks before every chapter. A table of contents is automatically generated, which allows readers to jump quickly to any chapter title, heading, or subheading in the book. In order to create a meaningful table of contents, it’s important to apply appropriate styles within your document. The ePub reader uses the paragraph styles to determine which items should appear in the table of contents for your book.
Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template. -

My OS is 10.9.3.I've been working on a document in Pages 4.3. Now is says I can not open the document unless I upgrade to Pages 5.2. The Pages 5.2 page in the App store says "installed" nor can I find a "purchase" or "install" button. How do I get Pages 5.2?
If you have already updated to Pages 5.2 on your Mac, you may be trying to open the file with a previous version of Pages. If this is the case, you have two versions of Pages on your Mac & are trying to open Pages 5 documents with Pages 4. Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there then right-click on the Dock icon & select Options > Keep in Dock.
Installing new versions of iWork has never replaced existing versions. This is nothing new. The only thing new is that the '09 apps are moved to an iWork '09 folder if they were purchased from the Mac App Store. If they were installed from disk they should already be in a separate folder in Applications. -

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. However it converts all my pdf files to Photoshop Elements 10 so I can not email them because no one can read them they are not pdf files anymore. What do I do?

If your program is Photoshop Elements (any version), you have posted in the wrong forum. Somehow your thread was posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

But wherever your thread ends up, please give more details of your situation. I am not understanding "it converts all my pdf files to Photoshop Elements 10". You control the Save As.

Nothing has been converted. You first need to convince yourself of this.
Start Adobe Reader (or Adobe Acrobat, if you have it). Use Open from the File menu. Pick one of your PDF files. Does it open OK? If not, what happens?
Ok, these emails. What exactly happens when trying to open them? -
