How do you convert a pages document to a pdf document?

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.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

How can you delete a Pages document from your Ipad but keep it on your MAC?

You will need to keep them in folder on your hard drive somewhere other than in iTunes or they will be deleted from iTunes if you delete them from the device. I have a folder on my Mac called iPad Pages Documents - very original don't you think!
Here is the support article that explains it all.

Something to try -
Having installed Acrobat Standard you have the Adobe PDF virtual printer installed.
From your authoring application do a "file-print" and select the Adobe PDF printer rather than the attached local or network printer / plotter.

How can I convert a Pages document into PDF or RTF?

I have been asked to send a Pages document to PC users in RTF or PDF format. How can I get my Pages document to convert into other formats for PC people?
Is that what the export feature is supposed to do? I just don't know how to sent my document via e-mail to non-Apple conputers!

You didn’t indicate whether you are using Pages ’09 v4.+ or the latest Pages v5(.2) release. To send an email with either Word or PDF attachment from within Pages:
Pages ’09 v4+
Pages menubar > Share (category Send via Mail) > (select Word (.doc) or PDF). Mail will launch into a compose window with the document already attached.
Pages v5+
Pages toolbar > Share > Send a Copy > Email > (select Word (.doc/x) or PDF - best). Mail will behave as above.
Note: Either version of Pages is not an MS Word clone and it must translate content into the Microsoft document architecture. If you must have maximum Word document accuracy, you will need Office for Mac 2011, and the associated MS Word application that produces native .docx format.
Backup your work.

HT4356 How do you conver a Page document to PDF when there is no printer available

I purchased a $400 printer last year..now I cannot use it with my IPAD3 because it has to be an Air Print printer.
I need to convert my Page document to PDF and the only way to do that is to go to Print a document...but, when
I get there it tells me that I don't have a printer...Therefore, I cannot get to PDF conversion...
I thought Apple have an incredible group of smart software engineers ...what happened?
Now, I have to go and buy another $400 printer to be able to convert a document to PDF?
I bought this IPAD3 for my wife since she is not a computer expert but, so far I see that this is a product more compicated than a personal computer.
The hardware is great but, so far my wife has a hard time to use the Apps I got for this IPAD...I'm a software programmer working for a major computer company and I also have a hard time trying to get these functions to work...

Under "Share and Print", tap "Email Document", then choose PDF. Alternately, tap "Sent to iTunes", "Copy to iDisk", or "Copy to WebDAV" and then choose PDF...

How do you convert a pages package back to a pages document

I have a friend who tried to "save" a pages document to MS Word format by just changing the extension to .doc instead of using Pages "Export" feature. Now the Pages document is not able to be opened by either Pages or Word.
When looking into the package I can see .jpg picture of what the document contained.
Is there a way to undo this?
I'm a new mac user so aplogies if this is a really lame question
Thank you,
Mike

Mike
There are some things you can just change the extension because they are bascially the same format*, but this is not one of them.

* eg .mp4, .mpeg and .mov

If you need to send more than one document via email to a recipient with a PC, how do you convert them to a Word or PDF before sending them in one email?

When trying to send an email to a PC user and need to send multiple documents, in the old version of iPages, you could save the document as a Word or PDF file then attach them to the email. I don't see how to do this with the new version. Therefore, the only way I can see to accomplish this task is to go to each document and send them individually in another version. Otherwise, the PC user will not be able to view the documents - correct. There must be a way to convert and save the documents like before so numerous documents can be sent at once. Please help!

What fruhulda said. In addition, in the Mail composition window, I recommend that you select the paperclip icon from the Toolbar, and enable Send Windows-Friendly Attachments.
You can also select multiple files in the Finder and drag them onto the composition window. In my experience, the documents resist an iconic state, so right-click on just one, and choose View as Icon from the contextual menu. This will transform all attached documents into icons.
If you want to send just one document from within Pages v5, use the Share icon in the Toolbar and select Send a Copy > Email. You can then choose PDF (and its image quality), or Word (.docx default, or .doc) document formats that will be attached as an icon in a new pop-up Email composition window.

How do I convert a Pages document to pdf on the iPad?

Does anyone know if there is an app that allows you to do this? I have to create a document in pages, create a pdf of the document, then email it to several addresses. Seems like there ought to be a way to accomplish this on the iPad, and not go to my laptop.

When you click on the Share icon in the top right corner of Pages, it will ask you how you want to share...
Share Link via iCloud
Send a Copy
Open in Another App
You said you wanted to e-mail it, so select Send a Copy. Select Mail. Now it will ask you for a file format, so select PDF.
That's it. Just type in the names of the e-mail recipients and you're good to go.
If you want to send the document as a non-CC type e-mail message, and BCC won't work because you need to have a custom body in the e-mail, then you can download most any PDF app. iBooks is an Apple based one and it's free. Instead of selecting Send a Copy, select Open in Another App. Now select your format as PDF. Select Choose App. Tap on iBooks or whatever. Now you can send the PDF from iBooks instead.

How do you unlock a pages document? nothing I see on the forums duplicates my situation.

how do you unlock a document in pages that doesn't say "locked" at the top of the page???

Thanks for answering me! You might not be reading my question correctly because I think I am confused. So now I have a couple questions. I have never used the the Document Inspector to lock a file so that is not the issue. It has not asked for a password either.
When you said a document will be locked after a period of time I have experienced that but usually it drops a box down asking if you want to unlock it. When you said, "as determined by my System Preferences" I dont' see anything in system preferences about documents.....what am I missing here?? I am using Lion 10.7.4. So I would like to know the answer to that. I am wondering if you meant it can be set to lock or not lock???
That said.....in the meantime I had done a duplicate and then made it a template just to see if I could accomplish what I was trying to do and that didn't work either. SOooooooo let me ask you this.....what I did was take a bunch of clip art off the internet and put it all on one document page in Pages. I named it "tropical clip art." When I open that document I can not drag and drop any of the clip art anywhere. Not to my desktop, not to another document etc. That is what made me think it was locked. The document name is at the top and it has "edit" greyed out next to the name. What the heck am I doing wrong? I am fairly new to Pages altho been an Apple user for awhile. I have always fuddled my way through using Pages. If I can not put the clip art on a document to save it all in one place, what is my other option? I was trying to avoid going back onto the internet repeatedly to get clip art I want to use over and over. It is free clip art. If I go to the internet I can drag and drop it anywhere.
When I try to drag and drop it off the Pages document it disappears and I have to go to "undo typing" under edit to get it back. Am I making any sense??
And this is my very first time on these forums too so that took me a bit to figure out.
Thanks so much!!!!!
