How do I save a Pages document as a PDF that allows whoever I send it to to edit/type in responses in certain areas?

I am trying to create a PDF document using Pages '09 where whoever I sent it to can type in responses for certain things. It is like a workbook. However, I created a document with various text boxes, saved it as a pdf, and then opened it. I was unable to edit the pdf.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

You need to edit the pdf in something like Acrobat Pro to do that. PDFs are not generally meant to be editable.

  • HT3705 How do I save a Pages document to jpeg so that I can share on social media?

    I have created a brochure and would like to post it on Facebook. How do I save a Pages document to jpeg so that I can share on social media and email? Do I have to save it as a jpeg or what other format can I save it in?

    Ashe,
    In Pages, Print to "PDF > Open PDF in Preview". From Preview, File > Export to the format or your choosing, one page at a time. For text, PNG would be better than JPG.

  • How do I save a pages document as a pdf to iPhoto?

    I recently purcahsed a new imac and have upgraded to Mountain Lion.  Under my old system: Leopard, in Pages 07, I was able to complete a document and then save it as a .pdf to iphoto.  When I upgraded to Lion, I lost this capability.  It was my understanding with the upgraded system (Mountian Lion and Pages 09) that I would once again have this feature but I don't see that option now.  Does anyone know how I can get a Pages document saved into iphoto?
    Thanks in advance:)

    Pages does not export to .png. You can export as a PDF then open the PDF in Preview & export as .png. A better way would be to select the content you want & copy then switch to Preview & go File > New from Clipboard & save that as a .png. You'll get a better result with the second method.

  • HT4641 How do I save a pages document into a format a pc can open?

    How do I save a pages document that a pc can open.  eg jpeg, rtf pdf etc?

    I assume you're using Pages on an iOS device since that is the forum you've posted in.
    Tap on the wrench/spanner at the upper right & choose Share & Print. From there you can choose to e-mail or save to iTunes & then choose a format such as PDF or Word.
    If you should be asking about Pages on a Mac, use File > Export & choose Word or PDF.

  • How do I save my Quark document as a pdf on my iMac?

    How do I save my Quark document as a pdf on my iMac?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    If Quark doesn't offer its own method of doing so (check the manual), then try the built in method from OS X. Print the document. In the Print Dialog Box choose the PDF drop down menu at the bottom and then choose Save as PDF.

  • 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. What's happening?

    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.

    Often the reason Share > via e-mail doesn't work is an "illegal" character in the file name. The most common problem character is a / but any character not allowed in Windows can be a problem.

  • How do i save a pages document onto a memory stick

    Please can you help? I am trying to save a pages document onto a memory stick but when i drag the file into the memory stick it just bounces back.

    If its a new document click Save As and then navigat to the memory stick. BTW how is the memory stick formatted, if it's NFS as I suspect that is a MS Windows format which means the stick has to be re-formatted. Please advise if the stick will be shared with MS Windows machines.

  • How can I save a pages document with a new name

    I often make changes to pages and numbers documents and save them with a new name. This seems to be impossible under LION. To remove the save as command is very shortsited. The only way I found to get around that is to save the changed document as a templete, remove the changes I made to the original document, Open a new document using the templete I just created, saving that document under the name I would have created using the save as command if it was still there, and then delete the templete. How in the **** is this better? Lion has disrupted almost everything I used to do in Snow Leopard.
    The only thing that syncs with mobile me is email. Everything else quit working. I reported the mobile me issue to Apple and am waiting for them to contact me.

    I think the issue is easy:
    1.- Try to go to the File Menu
    2.- Then hold down the Option Key
    3.- You will see in the File Menu (while you press the option key) the "save as" option.
    4.- Choose the "save as" option.
    5.- Choose the file where you want to save your document (you can choose any folder or sub foler in your mac or even iCloud). If you want to, you can even rename the open document where you are working in.
    I hope this would help
