Converting chart from Word for Mac to Pages

In converting a two page chart from Word for Mac to Pages, only page 1 converts. But because of the way I built the chart, I can't cut and paste one page at a time from Word and then convert. Word insists on selecting both pages. Anyone have an idea short of redoing the chart from scratch in Pages?

I'm not sure I follow you. Did you try copying the data from the chart in Word and paste it into the chart editor for a new chart in Pages?

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off. Can someone help?

Ah! You're creating a PDF out of Word through Acrobat. The cutoff is most likely being affected by the printer chosen.
When you call up the print dialogue in Word, check to see what printer is being used. If it's a typical inkjet printer, Acrobat is using the print margins of that printer as the cutoff area. Since most such printers can't print to the last inch and half or so of the paper, that's where it would be cut off.
Near the bottom, under the preview of the document, click on the Page Setup button. It doesn't really matter which printer you select here. Under Paper Size, choose Manage Custom Sizes. Under the Non-Printable Area heading, choose the same printer and set the paper size you're using.
Note that the unprintable margins for that printer will be filled in automatically. That's what's being cut off. Click the + button to create a modified version. The default will be "Untitled". Give it a new name if you want. Then set all of the margins to zero. Click OK. Now you'll have that as a choice under Paper Size. Doesn't matter that the actual printer can't use this setting since you're going to a PDF. Click OK to get back to the main Word print dialogue.
Now choose Save as Adobe PDF. It should give you an exact duplicate of what's on screen in Word since as far as Acrobat is concerned, your "printer" has no unprintable margins.

I have Word for Mac and Pages. I can't find a "to do list" template in either.

I have Word for Mac and Pages. I'm looking for a "to do list" template. I don't really want to make one.

My apologies. Yesterday that link worked fine in Chrome under Lion, today
it crashed Safari and Lion. Here is another link to try (non microsoft) which
just worked in Chrome and Safari: http://www.printabletodolist.com/
Sorry for the first link - don't know what happened. I did get a warning
that it was an untrusted site in Chrome, but warning flashed up and went
away - maybe Microsoft is/was under attack.

Unable to copy text from Word (for Mac) into Safari

I am unable to copy text from Word (for Mac) into Safari. It doesn't seem to be recognizing that I am copying a selection of text from a word document. As when I try to paste, nothing happens. Is there a way around this?

Disregard question, found it. Right click, or Ctrl+click to use submenu to Copy.

Conversion from .docx to Word for Mac OR Pages

I'm using a 2009 MacBookPro, IWorks/Pages and 2004 Word for Mac. I'm currently in download ****, courtesy of Microsoft.
I wrote a document using Word for Mac (2004). I sent it to a friend for editing, she returned it in a .docx format. When I tried to read it, I couldn't. THe error said it "Couldn't find a converter for this file format." It offered a download. I download both the updates for Word and the converter. NADA.
I have Pages which is supposed to read all these formats, yet it's not doing it. I've tried the MS route. How can I read this timely document? It's only 1 hour away from White Collar. Help!

According to p34 of the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf:
*Opening a Document from Another Application*
You can create a new Pages document by importing a document created in another
application, such as Microsoft Office 2007 or AppleWorks. Pages can import the
following file formats: plain text (.txt), Rich Text Format (.rtf and .rtfd), AppleWorks 6
word processing (.cwk), and Microsoft Word (.doc).
It does not say it can open .docx
Have you tried opening it with OpenOffice (free)? I think TextEdit might be able to open it as well as it saves to it.

When I convert a file (Word for Mac) my links are no longer clickable.

I created a document in Word for Mac that included several hyperlinks. When I convert the file using Acrobat to a PDF, the links are still colored and underlined but no longer can I click through on them. How do I maintain the click through ability in the PDF form?

I am using Adobe Acrobat XI from the Creative Cloud. On a Mac. Apparently keeping links clickable from Word/Mac to Adobe Acrobat is a known issue).
See this forum thread I later found after posting this question: Losing links when saving Word 2011 Mac to Acrobat Pro X 10.1.3
I was successful in exporting to Pages then creating a PDF, however, I had to spend time adjusting quite a bit of formatting, which was less than ideal. And some formatting (like quote boxes) changed in Pages and I cannot get the Word version of the Quote Box. So again, not idea There are some other fixes mentioned in the link above that I am going to try.

Converting PDF to Word for Mac version 14

I subscribed to PDF Export and tested it by converting a Word for Mac doc to a PDF and then opening same in Word. My font was Palatino regular. It opened alright, but
Calibri was substituted for Palatino. How can I change this.

I'm glad you've got the problem licked now, or at least understand the limitations on some of your downloaded PDF documents. I suspect those limitations will apply to all documents that are downloaded from the same database or source, and will consistently not apply to documents downloaded from specific other databases, because of differences in the way documents are scanned by different database services.
By way of clarification, let me just point out that what you are calling Acrobat, which used to be called *Acrobat Reader,* is now officially called *Adobe Reader.* Adobe changed the name to distinguish more clearly between Acrobat — an expensive commercial application for +creating, modifying and manipulating+ PDF files — and the freeware Adobe Reader, which only enables you to view them. You'll avoid needless confusion by calling the Reader by its proper name in the future. No big deal, though: lots of people make the same mistake here. (I've explained this distinction to my wife any number of times, and have finally learned not to bother doing it again: she simply doesn't care.)

Copy and paste text from Word for Mac to Mail exasperating!

I'm so exasperated!! I would be grateful for some help. I have a carefully worded template letter in Word for Mac. I copied and pasted it into Mail and loads of extra lines are put in that I cannot delete! So I painstakingly copy and paste each line. I still have to faff about deleting extra lines that magically appear, then press shift+enter to go to next line without having a line space. It has messed up font size as well. Surely it should be straightforward to copy and paste simple text from one program to another! Is there something I should know or do I just have to type everything out afresh each time - ridiculous in this so called easy technology that saves work ha ha.

Acrobat XI will not create PDF from word for Mac

I'm on a late 2013 macbook air, running Mountain lion, office for mac 20011 and acrobat XI pro. In acrobat, when I go to file, create pdf and navigate to a word doc, acrobat will not creat the pdf. I get an error message that reads someting like "acrobat could not open test.docx because it is not a supported file type." Create pdf works with other file types. I can create PDF by using the Save As in Word, but that is besides the point. I bought Acrobat in order to process many word and excel files into on PDF-file easily and currently that is not possible. Anyone?

This is possible on Windows.

Does Pages alleviate the problem of bloated pdf files created when using Word for Mac?

I am finishing up my PhD dissertation and need to convert it to a .pdf file to be able to send it via email, however, as many are probably aware, when making pdfs directly from Word for Mac the pdf files are enourmous! If I move the document over to a Windows machine, the pdf is managable, but with all the little formatting details of a thesis, it screws up enough that it will be torture to have to fix it. I will glady get Pages (I was going to switch after my defense anyway) if I can make a pdf that is not 140 MB (my thesis .docx file is a little over 500MB)!

In Pages you have the option to export to Pdf and can choose between good, better and best versions. Beware though it is often the images that will lose in resolution. This is what the Pages User Guide says:
If you’re exporting to PDF, you must choose an image quality (a higher image quality results in a larger PDF file):
Best: Image resolutions are not scaled down.
Better: Images are downsampled to 150 dpi. Images without transparency (alpha
channel) are JPEG-compressed by 0.7.
Good: Images are downsampled to 72 dpi. Images without transparency (alpha channel) are JPEG-compressed by 0.9.

Can you open with Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft word for Mac?

Can you open in Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft Word for Mac?

Pages '09 will open .doc files from Word 2004. The Mac OS is not what is in question. Pages '09 opens Word 2004 documents and if the same version of Pages will run in Lion and in Mountain Lion ..... Thats all that matters.
I trust you were using MS Office 2004 and would now like to buy Pages?

Flow text in Word for Mac 2011 works from page 1 to page 2, but not from page 2 to page 1. Does anyone know a fix for this, please?

Does anyone know how to get text to flow from page 2 to page 1 in Word for Mac 2011, please?
To try it, create a fair size text box on page 2 and fill it right up with text.
Next, reduce the text box size so that the text box is over-full.
Then Flow this overflow into a new text box on page 1.
What appears also disappears, especially if you try to print.
Does anyone else have this problem?

With some advice, I was able to solve my problem by opening Word and then Force Quit Word. When I re-opened Word, it had returned to normal.
Note: I had already tried the expedient of restarting my computer without solving my Word problem. But Force Quit did the job.

I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. However received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately. Ideas?

I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. It opened normally. However, after editing, received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately and presumed they would work without a hitch. Am I missing something?

It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his iDisk in For_iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip.
