How come, when I save a pages file as a word doc, it automatically hyphenates my text?

I'm a college student trying to write essays for my classes, and my professors all prefer word documents. When I go to export my essays from Pages 5, I have no trouble exporting it and saving it as a word file. However, when I open these files, it shows that all of my text has now been set to automatically hyphenate, and I can't find a way to change it without being forced to resave it as a Pages file. Has anybody else experienced this problem?

The fonts aren't supposed to be embedded. They are embedded.
After that, you may have applications proving that they are unable to display chars with the embedded datas but this is an other problem.
The Apple tool creating PDF embed fonts ( in fact a subset restricted to the really used characters ) since it's first delivery.
I bought the Countdown font more than ten years ago, so it may be described as an old one. It's made of two files : a bitmap one and a postscript one. Which is the worst structure given the late versions of the Apple tool.
My guess is that your problems where linked to the fact that Apple continue to create PDFs according to the version 1.3 when many appli are now assuming version 1.6 or higher.

    You can Duplicate the file then Save it as a .doc file.
    In Mountain Lion (I don't think this is in Lion), you would click on File then press the Option key to get 'Save As'.

  • No file size appears when I save a .pages file

    When I save a .pages file there is no file size listed in the directory. In the file directory it says only -- where all the other files have a size in KB or MB listed in that column.
    What's going on here?
    The file can be opened without a problem. And when I right click on the listing and choose Get Info, the file size is there in that pop up window -but not in the listing.
    I cannot email this file either -because, I guess, it reads the listing as an empty file.
    I can convert it to a .doc file and email that, but as a .pages file I get nothing.

  • How do i convert a multi page pdf to a word doc w the same number of pages?

    My file started in Adobe Illustrator. It has several pages of text.  I converted to a pdf. When I tried to convert to Word with Export PDF, all the pages ended up on a single page, instead of a Word doc with the same number of pages. What do i do to get a pdf of 7 pages to convert to a 7-page Word doc?

    Word page layouts are fixed like PDFs. Just add page breaks as needed. But don't expect any kind of good result. If Word could do fancy layout, we wouldn't need Illustrator.

  • When I save a pages document as a word document it changes!

    I have created a document in pages. When I save as word document, it gets funky! Things shift all over.
    Also, when I save as a pdf, many people complain they cannot open it, and if they can, it is illegible.
    How do I fix both of these?

  • How come when I save a image to Jpeg, I can't see the size of the file?

    This is the message I get (below). I used to be able to see it previously. I just went back from windows 8 to win 7 and had to reinstall photoshop, an now I have this issue. Someone can tell me what I need to do to be able to see it again?
    Thanks

    You should see the file size in that dialog box if your image is an 8-bit image.
    But in any case, Trevor has it right: use Save for Web.

    When I save a Pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf and recipients can't open it. Some load correctly, but about half don't load as a pdf. What's happening?

    Hi mjmonck-
    Which email provider are you using? There are different solutions possible for different providers. Yahoo is having trouble with attachments, outside of any Firefox issue. I've seen a Google user fix this by manually adding the mail URL to their ad block program- which mistakenly perceived the webmail page as an advertisement.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi olivias,
    It sounds like there may be some confusion on your system about what application should be associated with PDF files. You can reset filename associations by following the steps in these articles (depending on your operating system):

    A simple search:

    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

    Do they show on your purchase history ? If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases (the most recent purchase is above the list).
    If they don't show then they may just be 'holding charges' to check that you had enough funds to pay for them - in which case they should disappear within a few days or so.
    If they do show then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How come when I view flash videos my videos stop, but the audio plays  and I see rainbow colored lines up and down the video.

    How come when I view flash videos my videos stop, but the audio plays  and I see rainbow colored lines up and down the video. I attached a image below.

    ATR, just to make sure you understand me, all my video clips in my folders appear as the first frame of the video clip when I view my folders as (small, medium, large)icons instead of lists, when saved as .avi files but when saved as .mp4 files, those icons display as a graphic icon of filmstrip with a musical note on it. I do have various other methods to open with (quick time, windows media, winamp or real player) but prefer real player because I like it's quick and easy trimmer that comes along with it, since so many of my videos are just pet antics where you need to clip off the boring beginning and ends of the video.
    I did go on a few of the icons and right clicked, Open With, and tried quick time and also Windows Media and it did nothing as far as how the file was saved for display, and they opened the same no matter which player I used...the actual video opens and plays right at it's first frame... but it's the way it is visually displayed in STORAGE that bugs me because it isn't immediately apparent to me what it is a video of (weddings, outside the house, pet antics)... it makes me have to actually title things and read titles where before I let it just be dates because I had the visual of that first frame as a reference. Obviously, this is a problem for unedited videos only, as anything I actually work with, I do give a title along with the date of the video.
    I also just realized this seems to be the way ALL videos that are wrapped in .mp4 are displayed, as my bloggie camera's videos appear the same way. Now I know why! My other videos display as .avi's so I see the frame. Puzzle solved. Guess I'll just have to learn to live with it, as it seems to be how things display with the various formats.
    Now I need to watch some tutorials to learn how this Premiere program works! It's all new to me, since this is the first time I've been able load any of my videos onto it. I haven't even been able to figure out how to trim on it yet!
