Can Pages link 2 sentences in a document ?

I'm new to Pages 2 but already like how it feels when I use it. I'm only doing text documents for the moment.
So, here is my question: Can Pages link 2 sentences ?
For example, I am writing documents that need to have the same title on different pages (e.g., pages 1 and 2). I would like Pages to automatically change the title on page 2 when I do it on page 1.
I was thinking to use Placeholder text but I can't find a trick that would do it.
Any help appreciated,

Thank you both MMINSO and DennisG.
However, in my case, I don't think that the header trick won't work.
The idea is that the first page is a summary of the whole document that contains the list of chapters (within the main text).
The following pages contain the full text that is divided into chapters. Each chapter begins with its own title that was first listed on page 1.
I would like to only change a given title on the first page and that the corresponding one found somewhere else in the document (in the main text and not in the header) update automatically.
Dennis, I had a look at master object in the Pages Help but couldn't make sense of it for my problem. Any hint ?
Hope this is clear.

Can I link a template to several documents?

I am producing a series of booklets which are all the same size and have a number of common pages at the back.
Is it possible to craete a template that links to each of my documents so that whenever I cahnage the template all the documents will be automatically updated?
It's getting qyuite labourious amending each document every time there is a change to the common pages.
I'm using CS2.

First, in CS2 they cannot place an ID file, so they would need to
upgrade at some expense, and second, placing a multi-page ID doc is a
lot more work than adding it as the last document to a book -- I have
yet to see a script that will do a mult-page import for an ID document,
so you are stuck doing it a page at a time, unless you know of one I've
missed. In either case, the work to update is exactly the same -- you
just update the common file.
Firstly, I explained already they could make a PDF from InDesign CS2 and place that instead. They would still need to update the indesign file and then make a new pdf. No problem there is there?
No, that works, but it's more work to revise the file and make a new PDF than it is to just revise the file. Suppose the page count changes? The book takes care of that automatically, the placed file will need to have pages added or removed.
And you have urged the OP to upgrade not only to CS3 but to make the leap to CS4, so you contradict your first argument by saying the OP needs to upgrade at some expense.
I think you misunderstood. My first choice was the no-expense method of using the Book feature (and I'd probably do that in CS4, as well). I simply meant that IF the OP chose to upgrade, he should go all the way to CS4 instead of trying to find a CS3 copy.
Why can't it have page numbering? You make an indesign file with all the data bar the master page items, running heads, footers, page numbers etc.
You place that InDesign file/PDF into the current documents that have the same template as everything else, including page numbers and footers.
Indeed, you can do all of that, but those numbers are imported "as is" and bear no relationship to the current document numbering scheme. Suppose for one version the front part is 94 pages and for another it is 135? What numbers do you want in your placed file? If the template has duplicated master items (i.e. you use the same template to make both documents), I think the situation is even worse -- you'll get stacked elements from the placed document on top of the master elements on the document page (I did not check this for a placed .indd, but it would certainly be true for a PDF).
Just with my first experience using the Book it was a nightmare, especially for a beginner. There's options in there that can turn your numbering inside out and you don't know where to look to fix them.
I still think the book option is a little extreme.
Well, what can I say to that? I've never had a problem with the book feature, but tables drive me crazy...
Every feaure requires some practice to get right, I think. The thing with numbering in books is that it takes control of the individual documents and resets the internal numbering, IF you set the book to do automatic numbering (which is the default, for pretty good reasons) and needs to be changed BEFORE adding documents if you want to turn it off.
I agree that isn't an obvious thing, especially to a new user. I would argue, though, that in this case it wouldn't have much impact. I don't see this as a problem except in the case where a document is to be both used separately and included in a book, in which case you would always need to reset the document numbering internally to use it as a standalone.

Can pages input into microsoft dot format document?

trying to input into a template created in Microsoft word with dot extension

To clarify:
Pages Exports to .doc/x files, it does not save to Word templates because it does not use Word files as native files.
If you want the .dot file to be a .dot file you will need to resave a .doc/x file in Word as a template.

HT2506 In pages how can I link text within the document? I can find a bookmark option and links only allows me to link to a web page

Hi all,
This is my first time using this discussion site! Any help would be great, as I am getting very frustrated with pages!
What I am trying to do is link text at the bottom of a document to a page at the beginning of the document. I can't find a bookmark option adn when I clink insert link it only provides an options to link to a web page. Help! thanks

Bookmarks are missing (sadly) and with them, the ability to create an in document link.
I was looking for this feature in a Table of Contents. When you assign a 'style' to text in a document, you can Insert > Table of Contents. Then Pages will keep the TOC updated and you'll be able to 'link' from the page number in the TOC. (Not much help though, for the OP)

How can I link two charts on different pages in one document?

I have a chart on the first page How cn aI link two charts on differnetof my document. The last line is a intermediate total (formula). How can I link the chart on the next page to this total, so I can go on with the calculation without having to copy and paste the result of the first chart?

Timan,
I'm sure that you could figure out how to get along with Pages, or Numbers. Each has it's own advantages and disadvantages.
If you put all your text that doesn't need to be in the table into text boxes, you can place the text boxes over the table in any arrangement you like. Be sure to turn off Object Causes Wrap in the Wrap Inspector.
Here is an example of a single table across two pages with other text on the page:
The formula in the cell displaying 500 is =B1 * 100
On the other hand, I agree that the feature of linking to sister tables would be a nice enhancement and I encourage you to submit the idea vie Pages > Feedback > Enhancement Request.

IWeb • How Do I Make Links in an Embedded PDF Document Open in New Page?

On this page http://ostyn-newman.com/Gov_Downloads.html I have a PDF document that is embedded. I tried an IFrame, but everything seemed to work better for me with the "Embed" code. I am open to changing this if it would be better. Here's my problem. I can get the PDF document to display fine, but when I click on the links in the PDF document, the destination page opens in the embedded window. I want the links to open the destination in a new window.
I created the part of the document with most of the links (Pages 8.5 - 56) in Numbers and cut and pasted the table into a Pages document to create the completed document on our site. I exported the docuemnt from Pages as a PDF file which is what you see. There is also a link to download the file on the same page which works just fine.
I have tried to insert the target="_blank" code but have not been able to get it to open the destination pages in a new window. I am inserting the code by using the Insert/Widget/HTML Snippet Feature in IWeb. Here is the code I am using.
<embed src=
"http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
style="width:850px; height:1000px;
border-width:0px;
border-color:#FFCC66;
border-style:solid;"
scrolling="auto" >
</embed>
I am not a coder and have just used Google to find the code to cut and paste and have played around with it to get to the place I am. If anybody can tweak the code I have or offer some totally new code for me to insert that will get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
Please keep in mind that most of the people who visit and use this page are government employees and are almost exclusivey using Explorer.

Thank you Jeff,
I tried your original suggestion and now my inserted html widget reads
<embed src=

style="width:850px; height:1000px;

border-style:solid;"
scrolling="auto" target="_blank">
</embed>
It is live on my site. You can see that the embedded document still opens the destination links in the embedded window.
As for your other two suggestions, thank you as well. I am aware of those techniques and did not use them because that is not how I want the other PDF links on the page to behave. The catalog and autocad blocks downloads in the box at the top should simply download (or behave however the client's browser is configured to handle downloaded PDF documents or zip files.) I don't intend to force those to open a new window. I could also have our client click on a link to the PDF document and open it in a new page (like in your second suggestion) but I was hoping to embed the PDF and have it automatically viewable on our Download • Terms • Prices Page with all of the PDF search functions intact as well as the links be active. My only complaint at this point is that the links in the embedded PDF document open the destination page in the embed window instead of a new window. I only want to force a new window because the destination window doesn't behave properly when it opens in my embed window and it is difficult to figure out how to go back to the my PDF document when a destination window gets opened in the embed window. The code you sent didn't do the trick. Or maybe I didn't get it exactly right. That is why I included it above. Thanks for trying though. I appreciate the effort.
I would be willing to bypass the imbed/iFrame route altogether if I could just somehow drop the Pages document into the IWeb page and retain the search and link features, but I've not been able to figure out how to do that. When I was exploring how to directly drop a Pages document into an IWeb page is when I stumbled on the method of embedding a PDF document into an IWeb page to retain the important search and link features.

Can you link from Word to a specific page in PDF without a webserver?

I am trying to add a link within Word that opens a specific PDF file and goes to a particular page within the PDF. Is there a way to do this without a webserver?

I have a similar problem I would like to solve. I am also running Word 2003, Windows XP and Acrobat Professional 7.0.
I can create a hyperlink in a word document to open a separate PDF file.
I can then use PDF Maker to convert the word document to PDF.
No problem.
When I click on the new link in the PDF document it opens the separate file in the same window and the original PDF file is closed.
I do not want the original file to close.
When I set up a new link from within Acrobat then I get the option to "Open in new window". This link works the way that I want.
As there are multiple hyperlinks in the word document, I will need to recreate new links everytime I modify the Word document. This is very time consuming
Question - how do I get the automatically created link to open in a new window?
Thanks in advance

Can you link to specific start and end pages of pdf in a web page

I'm using iframes to display a pdf on a web page. i want to be able to link to for example pages 2-3 of a 20page document.
I know i can link to a start page or a bookmark/destination but i only want those 2-3pages available to the viewer not the whole document.
Is this possible?

Not without a server-side application that extracts those pages as a new
file and opens it instead of the original.

Hi David.J.K.,
I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
You should also read through [[Clipboard not working]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Clipboard_not_working article.
Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware Malware].
Hopefully this helps!

Can you link to a page that is in the same article?

Hi Guys
I have one long Indesign document which is set to horizonal scroll only. This is the only article I have so I want to link some pages.
In the hyperlinks, I have linked to page but this does not work on the Ipad?
Also I have created a button to go to that page and this does not work! I can do hyperlinks but not page links?
Can anybody help!?
Cheers
Gemma

I find it better to create all article and page links using buttons rather than the crash-happy Hyperlinks panel.
Draw a rectangle, select it and then in the Buttons panel, click on the + next to Actions and choose Go To URL. In the URL field, type navto://articlename#0
Where I have typed articlename, you should type your article/folder name (not its title). Where I have typed #0, you should type a hash (#) followed by the page number in that article that you want to link to. For some reason, DPS article pages are numbered from zero (0) upwards, so the first page is #0, the second page #1, the third page #2 and so on.
So, to link to another page in the same article, use the whole navto://articlename URL followed by # and the page number you want to link to.

Pages? Can I open really old Claris Works documents with it? I don't want to spend $20 to find out.

Pages? Can I open really old Claris Works documents with it? I don't want to spend $20 to find out. I saved a bunch of stuff back in 1996, and now i need to open it.

Pages opens strictly word processing AppleWorks v6 files.
The problem with ClarisWorks files were they could contain all sorts of objects from databases to spreadsheets, drawings and paint. the iWork suite is not that versatile.
But you really have little choice as ClarisWorks and AppleWorks are both history. If you are going to switch, the sooner the better.
Just keep in mind what Apple did to ClarisWorks/AppleWorks along with many other of their appliactions and technologies theywill ultimately do to Pages.

How can I attach j-pegs and other documents to an email unopened and stop each them taking up a whole page of my email ?

In addition to the last poster's suggestion - just so you know, it also depends on the email program the recipient uses as to how they will see any attachments - for instance, when I am using my Yahoo Mail, I am absolutely unable to view any attachment within the browser window - Yahoo forces me to download it; there is no way for me to check it (like a preview) to see if I want to download it or not.
And, FWIW: the window shown in the screenshot does not show on my version of Mail 5.1 (which is the latest for 10.7.2); the only one similar shows when viewing a message received with an attachment, not while sending one. So that must be a different version.

How can I link to my website home page other than by referring to it via /index.html.

Hi,
I understand that it's better if the home page links within my site resolve to my domain name rather than to domain name and the suffix /index.html.
This can be achieved by specifying an absolute URL, but is there a better alternative method?
Advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy

The concern is SEO. When Google search links are followed to my home page the URL shows as http://www.mydomain.co uk but when home page links are clicked within the site, the same page shows a URL of http://www.mydomain.co.uk/index.html (the home page id within the site). I've been advised that in both circumstances the URL should ideally be the same. I honestly don't know whether it's something I should be concerned about, but if it's easy to accomplish I'll do it. (There's nothing special about the site, no intro page before the content or anything similar).

How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?

How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?
I scanned a 50-page document with an HP 5610xi All-In-One using the software that comes with it: HP Scan Pro. Though the physical document has standard 8.5" x 11" pages, the PDF resulting from scanning has page size set to 35.42 × 48.67 inches (according to Preview's "Tools > Inspector". I want to resize the pages to 8.5" x 11". Shouldn't Preview be able to do that with "Tools > Adjust Size..."? When I try, the menu option is grey so I can't select it.
I'm using Preview Version 4.2.

Thanks for the insight; that explains why it's the wrong size. I selected 300dpi scanning (which is the default, actually), but HP Scan Pro evidently created a PDF with 72dpi indicated. I want it fixed because I want to distribute the file to other people and have them able to print or display it without problems.
I still don't know why Preview won't let me change it, but your question about whether I wanted to print it did lead me to find a workaround: "File > Print" and "Save as PDF..." saved it with the correct page size.
