Import a pages document into a pages document

In a report I'm writing in Pages, I want to append several other Pages documents into an appendix at the end. I can't figure how to insert such entire documents, with formatting, headers, footers, etc. intact.

Menu > View > Page Thumbnails
Also
Toolbar > View > Page Thumbnails
You can Copy and Paste these within the document or into the Thumbnails of other documents. So just open the two documents and copy over the Thumbnails.
One caveat, both documents must have the same page dimensions and orientation.

How can I [cmd]+A including text boxes? Or how to import one Pages document into another Pages document?

Hi there,
I am working on my thesis with several Pages documents (for the first time). And I really have searched all over the Internet to find an answer to exactly my question but I cannot find it.
First my question was: How can I import one Pages document into another one? I found the answer on that (I think) and there is nothing else than just make a new section and copy/paste it in.
But then another issue pops up: I cannot [cmd]+A my whole document including the texboxes to paste it in the other Pages document. Then the document will be paste without the textboxes (and I have quite a lot of them in that document) and the text will not be at the right place.
So please explain to me: How I can combine two Pages documents and keep them exactly the way they are? Is that even possible?
I thank you so much in advance!

Hi Fruhulda,
I have already tried to mark the textboxes in line but that did not work, and besides then the text and the boxes won't be at the rigt places either. Thank you for your reply .

How do I import a numbers file into my pages document?

I have created a Pages document that I could like to import a Numbers file into the document for my presentation...any ideas on how to accomplish this? Help!

Hey amyrivera911fire!
While you cannot import the whole Numbers document into the Pages document, you can copy and paste data from a Numbers file into a Pages file:

Without the iPad connected, open up iTunes on your computer. Go to iTunes/Preferences/Devices and delete the backups that you're absolutely certain do not have the documents. Refer to figure below.
iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "NO" to creating a backup. (You don't want to create a new backup that does not have the docs.) You will then be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad. This time, say "yes."
Repeat all of the above as required until you get the docs.

Make Data Merge import certain page of pdf or indesign document

I don't know if it is possible but can you make Data Merge import certain page of pdf or indesign document, this would be great addition for indesign

Here are a couple of questions that might help understand what might need to be done to achieve your request:
* How do you propose to identify the desired page(s) within a PDF and an ID document, so the merge field placeholder knows how to find it?
* How do you propose to keep track of the page if they're re-ordered in an updated document?
* What if the identification marker is within text and flows to a different page - would you want to retrieve the original page (before the reflow) or the new page to which the marker would have flowed?
Perhaps the scripters could comment on the possibility of scripting these.

Peter

I can't import my iTunes files into pages, how can i fix the privileges problem?

when i try to import any mp3 file into a pages document, i get an access privileges error saying it is either corrupt, damaged or "can't be used" because I don't have access privileges. This has happened since I moved my iTunes library to an external drive. Anyone have any solutions? The privileges on both the library folder, and all its files are set to read and write for sharing and permissions.

If you do not have done so, set the "Ignore Ownership" flag on the external drive. YOu can set this flag from the "File > Get Info" panel for the drive.
How is your external drive formatted?
Can other applications open these mp3 files? QuickTime? Do they play in the Finder preview?
Do the filenames contain special charcters?

Importing multipage Word document w/hyperlinks into InDesign

I am new to InDesign and I am trying to import a 11 page Word document with hyperlinks into InDesign. For the life of me, I can not figure this out. I try to "put" the file into InDesign but it just imports as a tiny box. Two questions:
1. Does anyone know how to import a Word document where everything is left intact - formatting, line spacing and hyperlinks?
2. Can anyone recommend a good resource for beginners? Trying to learn the software is very challenging.
Thanks in advance for our help!

Matt: The 11 pages of information from Word still have to be laid out to 11 pages (or whatever) in InDesign. The little box you're talking about is a text box you either created before the Place command (with the text cursor waiting inside it) or created when you clicked the "loaded" cursor after the Place command.
You need to resize the box and link it to other boxes for the text to flow from one box to another. This can be a fairly automated procedure once you understand how to work in InDesign; it would require that you have your document designed with, say, a Master Page design, and then different choices of click, shift-click, cmd-click do different things: fill a single text box, fill "threaded" (connected) text boxes on pages you've created, or automatically create new pages as necessary to accommodate all the info you've brought in with the Place command.

Issues importing file with "copy into document option".

I am running Framemaker 7.1. I need to import a .jpg image into my document. I selected File-Import-File and then selected the file and the "copy into document" option. This placed the .jpg image into my document. I saved the document and then closed it. Then I moved the .jpg image file which I imported into the document to another location. I then re-opened the document and I get the following message:
"Missing File - Looking for ../xx.jpg". I select the "Skip This File" option and then "Continue". When I scroll down through the document to where I had previously imported the .jpg image and when I get to that page, I get the following message popup, "Cannot display some imported graphics. The images will appear as gray boxes." Once I select "OK" on the popup message, the image is displayed as normal.
Could someone help explain to me how I can actually copy the image into the document without any reference to the original file pathname.
Thanks.

I was able to activate the hypertext. When I click on the hypertext for the imported picture reference, the original document opens up but I don't see anything to indicate the imported reference. The bottom line is that I want to delete the imported references since I don't want the references in the document.
Somewhere buried in the framemaker document are these two imported references and I want to remove them. How do I do this?
Keep in mind that when I click on the hypertext imported reference, it switches to the original document, but I don't see anything that indicates an imported reference so there is nothing for me to delete.
Thank you.

Import a word document composed in Arabic font (.ttf) into a .fla

Hello Everyone;
I am developing an advance e-book in Flash. My client has composed about 500 books in arabic using Microsoft Word. My client wants search features in this book in which the user will type something in arabic & it will search the ebook text and give him results, so I cannot convert the text into vector or image I have to keep it as text. I want Import a word document composed in Arabic font (.ttf) into a .fla file without losing its formatting. Rightnow I am able to import the font using copy/paste from the word document into Flash, but it changes the font, but I fixed it by changing the text property from "classic text" to "TLF text" which fixed the font. Even though the copy/paste method works without formatting its not practical for my project because there are thousands of pages and copy/pasting them one by one frame by frame is time consuming & not practical.
I need a method or a third party software through which I can convert the word documents into fla or swf keep the font as text & very important without messing up the font and formatting.

3rd Party software that can be tested for free:

Import an Excel document or Visio document into Captivate 4

Is it possible to import an Excel document into Captivate 4?
Is it possibe to create a flow chart in Captivate 4? A flow chart was created in Visio and I would like to import into Captivave; I prefer not to use a .PDF document.

Hello Lilybiri,
It looks like we are doing the same thing in a slightly different way but in the end we have an image.
I have also done it this way, instead of making it an image (since I needed to keep changing it), I inserted the image I from Viso into a PPT slide, then I imported this into CP, now I since it is linked I can edit the PPT when I need to make changes directly from Captivate, when th ePPT window opens i can edit the deawing like i was in Viso. now in my case I was using the full PPT page for the image so I did not have to worry about resizing and stuff.. not sure if this would work for small images since I was dealing with drawing of equipment.

How do I import a Pages file into a Keynote slide ?

I have successfully copied multiple charts produced in Numbers into a keynote slide but have drawn a complete blank importing a pages file. I asked during a one to one session but my tutor did not know - Is it possible please.

If you need something from a Layout Document - Copy and Paste will do it.
Open your Pages document and select the portion you want > COPY
Open Keynote and create a blank slide > PASTE
Note: When you copy text boxes, images, etc. they will all be selected and copied - when you paste, you will see all the separate parts still selected - this would be a good time to GROUP the various elements so that you can re-size the whole thing to fit your needs.
It is a bit more tricky from a Word Processed Pages Document - if you do what I described above, you get a text box containing all of the text and individual photos but you lose the placement.
I found the easiest way to retain the look of the page is to take a Screenshot (CMD-Shift-4 then drag the cross hairs to select then release the mouse button) and place the screenshot on the slide and adjust size - since most Pages Documents are portrait and Keynote is landscape, there is no perfect fit. I prefer to add borders to the placed screenshot to show that it is a page - your choice there.
Good Luck.

Importing one Pdf document into another.

I am trying to import one Pdf-document into another using a Reference XObject. I am looking at thePDF- specification, and I thought I was doing things the right way, but its not working. The PDF-specification doesen't have an example of how to do this, only an explanation.
Below is the PDF-file I am testing with (if anyone can be bothered looking at it ). The file embeds another pdf-file, and is supposed to show a part of the embedded file at a certain position.
Again, if anyone can be bothered looking at my PDF and see if they can see what I am doing wrong here I would appreciate it.
(There is nothing wrong with the embedded file itself...)

PDF is a binary format. The most important piece in a PDF file is the cross
reference table. It contains byte offsets to the different objects in a
file. If you insert just one space (which in a true ASCII file will not
change much), you are making all byte offsets after the insertion point
invalid. They now all point to something different than the start of an
object.
Because there is no standard about how line endings are encoded in text
files, every time may add (or subtract) a byte - depending on what computer
system and what editor you use to convert your PDF to fake-ASCII, and then
again what I use to try to convert it back to PDF. If you are using a
Windows system and I'm using a Mac, the cross reference table gets
corrupted. And that's even before the web server does it's magic and
potentially adds data.
If you want somebody to look at your file.
Have you looked at the post I linked to? The settings in Acrobat are
important. You need to enable Reference XObjects, AND you have to declare
the directory where your target file is stored as trusted.
From what I can see in your PDF code, you are doing a whole bunch of cm
operations. You may want to consolidate all those into one operation. I
have not done a detailed analysis, but you could potentially shift your
data off the page. Keep it simple and see if that makes a difference.

Importing photobook pages into a new photobook

I've got a lot of experience working with PSE project files but I can't figure out how to take a page from an existing PSE project file and copy it into another project file. I've tried dragging and dropping (doesn't work), and can't seem to find a menu command for importing a page from a PSE file. does anyone have any advice?

Here's what I've figured out....
For me, there's no real reason to have an Event called "Photostream May 2012" (or whatever the case may be). I think it just ends up taking up hard drive space and kind of ruins the flow of photos events I have in iPhoto.
BUT, I do like the ability to take photos on my iPad and then import them into iPhoto without having to connect my iPad physically to my iMac.
SO, I simply go into Photostream and select a group of photos that I would consider one "event" and drag them to "Events" at the top left section of iPhoto. This imports the photos into the "May 2012 Photo Stream" event (or whatever the name of the Photostream even may be that month.)
I then create a new event (Event-->Create Event), and drag and drop that Photostream into the new event. The new event is now a separate, individual event, not a Photostream event which can cause issues when you want to later import additional Photostream photos into iPhoto.
If you have multiple events you want to import, basically do the same thing. You can either split them in the Photostream event or split them from within the new event.
Until Apple changes the functionality of how a new event is created when you drag a set of photos from Photostream into iPhoto, I think we will have to use these additional steps. (I also think this is one of the reasons why the there is a function called "Create Event". At this time, I can't think of any other reason why that command exists.)
