E-pub exported from Pages

These files are not being read by my Sony PRS-505 they exort as a single error page. E-pub books from other sources are no problem. Is there a DRM inbuilt that needs to be switched, or have I made a stupid mistake?

The reader shows an exclaimation mark inside a triangle with Page Error underneath. So if there's no DRM to prevent it reading it, it is almost certain that the reader is at fault.
On looking more closely, I think it must be a reader problem as the file is loaded and shows as a file size of 445Kb and as an epub document. Over to Sony!

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.

How to improve quality of pdfs when exporting from pages?

how to improve quality of pdfs when exporting from pages? Any suggestions?

Print to pdf and don't use anything with transparency.
Have you ensured all your images are actually high enough resolution for whatever purpose (which you haven't said) you want?

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.

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

Cannot find how to export from Pages to ePub

I have Pages '09, and looked on Apple's tutorials for how to export as an ePub file... It says just click share, export, ePub, but I do not have an ePub option. My only options are PDF, Word, RTF, and Plain Text. Am I missing something very obvious?

It's interesting that 'they' have decided to NOT let folks on 10.4 produce an ePub (from Pages). I understand that I cannot 'do' the whole ePub consumer side on this machine but I was hoping to get a bit of a headstart while on the road. (The mini at home base is running 10.6 and is my ePub production environment. That version of iWork9 does have the later Pages, which is why I was surprised when I could not find the same UI on my 'travel' machine.)
As to why I don't upgrade the G4? I need one machine that can run Classic. So it will live at 10.4.11 for the rest of its life.
I have my fingers crossed that today's announcement will include a suitable Macbook Air update ... one that is not too wide and/or too high. (The 13" 'books have been too large a footprint to replace my trusty 12" so I've been holding out...)

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.

PDF export from Pages results in jagged fonts when viewed in Preview

Hi There,
Since installing 10.5.5 I get the following strange behavior: When exporting a file in PDF from Pages certain fonts (such as Palatino) are not shown antialiased anymore when viewed in any Apple software (Preview/Safari). When viewed in Adobe Reader, the fonts appear smooth.
The strange thing is that, when I view PDF files generated last year before updating to 10.5.5 they still show with antialiased (i.e. smooth) fonts in the current Preview/Safari.
It gets even stranger: When exporting the files as .doc into (the resented and ridiculously slow and memory gulping) Word 2008, and then converting them into PDF via the Print command, this phenomenon does not occur, i.e. the fonts look smooth in Preview/Safari.
I would appreciate if anyone had some constructive input to this problem. I would really like to be able avoiding using Word!
Thanks much in advance!

I had the exact same problem that you were describing. I'd create a document in Pages '08, then export it to PDF and I'd find that the text wouldn't be anti-aliased in the PDF.
I was using one of the resumé templates that comes with Pages '08. The template by default sets the font size very low in certain areas of the page, as low a 7. I went through my document and bumped up font sizes that were below 9 and set them to 9. Now when I export to PDF the text looks great.
It was far from obvious to me that the font sizes were linked to the anti-aliasing in my exported PDFs.

Attach .pdf exported from Pages

I have a very specific problem. I understand the reason that Pages files cannot be attached in an email, but even the .pdf's or .doc's that I export via Pages cannot be attached to my Hotmail account. They can be attached in my gmail, but I use my Hotmail account for all of my business communication. I also know that you can send them via the Share menu in Pages, but that doesn't create a local file on my HD, but rather opens up the Mail app, which I do not want to use with my Hotmail account.
Can I create a .pdf file from within Pages that can be attached to a Hotmail email, from the web, not through Mail? Please hel me out on this one....
Some more details:
I am running Lion
I am new to iWork, have recently switched from using Office.
The Web brower I am using is Google Chrome
Thanks,
Matt

Hey, I actually solved the issue.
Having discovered that the one non-Pages created .pdf file that I had tested to see whether it would attach before my original post was the ONLY .pdf on my computer that would attach, I did some more research. It turns out it has to do with the Microsoft Silverlight plugin. I disabled the plugin, and everything now attaches as it should.
Now if only I could attach files, AND watch movies on Netflix without having to toggle the **** plugin on and off....

Can't Print PDF files exported from Pages

I spent all weekend creating a 25 page document - exported it to PDF and it won't print at all. Sent it to 50 customers before I discovered the problem
I used the same fonts and template last year in a document in Version 1 of Pages and had no problems.
I can print directly from Pages and also no problems printing if I export to Word but not PDF which is of course the format I require!
I checked the security setting in Acrobat and none are set so it sould be fine!
Help!?!

Can you open and print the the file in Preview? I found Acrobat Reader a little flakey with X and deleted it from my system. I use Preview for everything.
Instead of the export feature have you tried printing to pdf? See if it makes any difference.

Export from Pages in pdf and word

I made a report in Pages (05) (only 4 pages long) with a few photographs and exported it into a Word file because I needed to print through Microsoft (using a usb stick); Microsoft could not open the file; the same problem with this file exported in pdf (Adobe Reader); also on my own computer the Word program does not open the file (office 2004 for Mac); the pdf works fine;
after installation of iWork 06 the problem remained the same;
other files from Pages, from the past wich I saved in Word, don't have this problem; opening is not a problem;
is there a special reason for this one file to cause problems??
thanks, Dag

I've checked the foto's and their info once more, and there all in .jpg;
in fact, I 've opened the same template again, imported one of the same foto's and exported it in Word,.....no problems!!!
I guess it stays a mistery, any way many thanks for your reply,
greetings, Dag

Image export from Pages to epub

Hope this is the right forum.
Question about exporting images from Pages to ePub: What does the following comment mean?
Images beyond the 11MB of un-encoded image data allocation per chapter.
1. Does "images" mean total number in chapter? Or is the 11MB per image?
2. What is "un-encoded image data" please?
Thanks.

I asked the above question because I am writing a book with many pictures, and the exported ePub files for one particular chapter stop including pictures after a certain point.
However, that point is much beyond 11MB. The pics average 600KB, and it includes 45 of them (about 27MB) before stopping.
Thanks for the help.

Exporting from pages

With new Pages (5.0.1.) documents cannot be exported to pdf or word on a reliable manner. Some documents can be exported while with others unknown error occur during the exporting process. There is no way to identify or rectify the error. Thanks for help.

Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

Hyperlink won't open PDF when exporting from pages

When I'm export my docunment from pages 5.1, only the first page's hyperlink works. All the other pages are underlined but the hyperlinks do not work. Any solutions?

One of many bugs and missing features in Pages 5.
It happens to links with edited URLs after the first page.
If you still have Pages '08/'09 on your Mac use that and give yourself an upgrade to 100+ features missing in Pages 5.
