How to attach a document (using Pages) to a Gmail account?

Question

I am using Gmail and trying to attach a document ( Mac Pages) but it wont attach, keeps telling me that its failed to attach.

Answer 1

If a person uses Apple's native Mail App that came on the Mac or iOS device...then is will send attachments of the newest "Mavericks" versions of Pages, Numbers and Keynote. If a person tries to do this from within a Web Browser it doesn't seem to work (as I've recently tested from information from of our churches staff who only use the Web Interface). So, I'm not sure if Google changed something with thier Web Browser version recently or not, since I've always used the native Mail App on all my Macs and iOS devices.
So, there used to be a problem sending attachments from within the Mail App several months ago...but that was fixed by Apple (again several months ago).
Hope that helps...
I highly recommend using the built in Mail App (Email Client).
Multiple Email Accounts:
An Email Client allows multiple email accounts from different email providers to all be used simultaneous in one simple to use interface without any problematic POP forwarding settings or delayed delivery problems. i.e. It will gather and display email from Yahoo, Gmail, iCloud, AOL, Microsoft Exchange or any other email provider.
Accounts can still be viewed separately or all together:
All email accounts can still be viewed separately or all together with a click of the mouse or a tap of the screen, again without any forwarding settings. i.e. It's great for keeping personal and/or work accounts separate, and it also allows multiple signatures which helps relay professionalism, consistency and saves a little typing, too.
Select Multiple Messages:
A person can select multiple messages (even from different email accounts or email providers), and move, copy, delete, or even forward them all at the same time with a single action.
Work Offline:
It allows a person to continue working offline. i.e. no matter if Wi-Fi or the internet goes down or is unavailable in a certain area.
Advanced Rules and Filtering Based on Multiple Factors:
A person can set rules or advanced rules and filtering based on multiple factors (words, senders, subjects, headers, etc.)
Quick Look:
And, if you’re on a Mac, you can used features like "Quick Look" to view full Microsoft Office or Apple iWorks (Pages, Numbers, or Keynote) documents right inside your Mail App.
No Extra Apps to Download:
As it's already pre-installed on all Apple computers and iOS devices, so it's one less App to download or maintain.
Mac and iOS Versions Both Work Similarly:
Both the desktop and mobile versions work very similarly.
Easy to Maintain:
Apple automatically maintains it with each System Update, which is great for security, too.
Attachments are Easy (with less importing/exporting):
Working with attachments is super easy without any external importing or exporting (for example: items can be imported and exported directly to and from iPhoto, Contacts, Calendars etc. without any duplication).
It takes full advantage of the built in systemwide OS X / iOS features that popup:
