How could i block a document in Pages from editing and create editable fields in it?

could anybody help me?

Construct your document with spaces for the editable fields, then use Print > PDF > Save PDF file to convert that to a PDF image file.
Insert the file into a new pages word processing document as a floating object, then resize it to match the original size.
Move the image to the background and Lock it.
Insert a text box, place and size it for each field, and add some Placeholder text to each field. When set as Placeholder text, clicking on the text will select all of it, and anything typed will immediately replace the placeholder.
Limitations:
The text box cannot be locked in position without also preventing it from bring edited.
An editable textbox will not adjust to accommodate extra text. Adjusting it manually will not affect the underlying image.
Regards,
Barry

  • How do i save my document on pages so that i can open it on other computers

    How do I sav emy document on pages so that i can open it on other computers?

    Well, that was the short answer, then I rethought your question.
    Will the “other computers,” be Mac, or a mixture of Mac, Windows PC, and possibly Linux?
    What application on the other computers will be accessing the Pages content created on your MacBook Pro?
    Using the File export options I originally mentioned, you could save the files to iCloud. Then on the other computer, you use the web browser to sign into your iCloud account. When you click the iWork icon, the files that you saved from your MBP will be there. You can then right-click on the file you want and a download option exists.

  • How could I find which i-views/pages are being used

    Hello
    I am pritty new in portal area. I have to administrate an ESS/MSS portal during hollydays. I am trying to find everywhere the way.
    How could I find which i-views/pages are being used. Let say I can see which group I belong and which roles are behind.
    How could I know in which PCD folder they are taken into account (to e.g give permission to someone not in the group)

    HI,
    the user administration (UME) gives you the information about the user <-> group <-> role assignment.
    When you know the role, search in the PCS for it, open the role and you will see all the pages / iviews assigned to the role.

  • How do I format a document in Pages 5.2 so that each sentence automatically starts with capital letter?

    How do I format a document in Pages 5.2 so that each sentence automatically starts with capital letter?

    If you installed the Devon Technologies (Freeware) WordService Service package, there is an item that will enable you to fix selected content to show initial capitals in sentences. You may need to enable this feature in the System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Services selections. This only works in Pages v5.2 (and maybe later releases).

  • How do you delete a document in Pages?

    How do you delete a document in Pages? I keep trying to and it's still there...very annoying. Any help would be great. Thanks!

    Where have you saved the document, or are you talking about a template?
    You do not delete any documents inside Pages. You must locate them in Finder (probably in the Documents folder) and then drag them to the Trash.
    If you need basic help with using a Mac, Apple has helpful videos and tips in their Support section of their website.

  • How to temporary block list of web pages?

    Hi While working I need access to web pages (I am developing web applications) but same time often I got distracted and spend my time reading interesting articles on web instead doing my job. I was using LeechBlock addon for Firefox, but now I migrated to chrome. So my question is:
    Is there simple way how to temporary block list of web pages for all browsers?
    It is OK to block http/https access only, but no problem to block all traffic from/to this sites. I need to by able to easily start/stop this block.

    No. Each domain has (or has not) its own IP address. The IP address of a parent domain has no influence on the IP address of subdomains.
    If you want to be able to use willcard, the best way is probably to base the filtering on HTTP level traffic.
    That is directly in the client (firefox/chrome extensions)
    Or, using an http proxy (squid).
    Or, may be, using iptables with rules that match the URL.
    eg
    sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m string --string "google.com" --algo kmp -j DROP
    will block outgoing traffic matching "google.com". You can of course tune better rules.
    sudo iptables -F OUTPUT will flush all rules.
    You can then add many "iptables -A OUTPUT" lines in a script, and associate a key shortcut to this script...
    Well, an extension to the browser is probably preferable. I give this solution only for the fun

    JM,
    Command-Click the filename at the top of the Pages window. In the list that pops up, click on the second item, the parent folder of the document. A finder window will open. Control-click the highlighted file and select "Move To Trash". Close the document.

  • How do I save a document in Pages?

    How do I save a document using Pages?

    And if you are looking for a "Save As" feature after you have already saved your document (to save it as a different name), then try one of the following.
    Option 1 - File > Duplicate > File > Save > (New Name)
    Option 2 - (Find the Doc) Hit Command + Spacebar, then type the name of the document in the search bar
                   When you see the document for which you are looking below the searchbar, Command + Click it
                   A new window will open. Find the document in this window. Option + Click it.
                   The name of the document will highlight. Start typing the new name. When done. Hit enter.

    How can I block someone in my family from seeing my email since it's in the Icloud but we share the same Apple account?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • How do I remove or delete a page from a Section?

    How do I remove or delete a page from a Section in Pages?

    The blank page is not blank, there is something on it like a return or word space, or a page break or return on the previous page that forces over to the "blank" page.
    Menu > View > Show Invisibles and delete it.
    Think of a word processing document like a scroll which you view through a set of frames (the pages).
    The scroll is filled from the front and flows through as many pages as necessary to accomodate the text in the main text area between the margins.
    Pages has one quirk however which catches out many users. Floating objects stay on their absolute page, the one where they were placed. If that page no longer exists because the text no longer flows that far, the floating objects are no longer visible. They are still in the document but off the end page, much like objects moved completely off the page to the right or down are still there but not visible.
    So if you want to make sure floating objects are entirely removed from the document delete, or move, those first, then select the text on that page by dragging over it or shift clicking from top to bottom and hit delete.

    But take care on text threads accross several pages. If you delete a page with a text frame linked to a thread accross several pages, the text will change to the beginning of the thread on every first page.
    So it might be good to run a script which will unlink threadened text frames before.
    If you have often to do this task, there are several plugins which will help you to perform this. E.g. Output factory from http://zevrix.com/
