Move text from pages to numbers

I would like to move text from Pages to Numbers

Hi Derfyef,
Paragraph marks (returns) in Pages will create a new row in a Numbers table.
Tabs (but not commas) in Pages will create a new column in a Numbers table.
Pages:

Copy, then click in a table in Numbers, Paste
A
B
C
D
E
F
Regards,
Ian.

  • Importing from pages or numbers

    Is it possible to import files to keynote from pages or numbers. I am working on a safety presentation that uses spreadsheets, photos and graphics (lines, arrows, comments in text boxes etc) I would like to be able to present this as a keynote or powerpoint type presentation. I thought this was possible but nothing is working.

    I have documents and spreadsheets with photos dragged from iphoto that I have been wanting to use as a keynote type demo. I was trying to drag or copy from pages and numbers as well as word and excel for mac. Saving as pdf files allows me to drag over to a keynote slide and works. It just does not allow me to alter the document during the demo (adjust numbers in the spreadsheet or move arrows on the arial photos of the pages doc etc. )
    Thanks for the help, was just temorarily brain dead.

  • How do I place text from Pages in InDesign

    How do I place text from Pages in InDesign?

    You will need to export the text from Indesign as either .rtf or .doc files and import those.
    You can also cut and paste but I assume you have already tried these options and are not happy with the result, but haven't said why.

  • Double spacing issue when pasting text from Pages

    I have a Pages document with text that frequently paste into a message that is generated by the Dropbox iOS app when I choose the e-mail option within Dropbox iOS app.
    I'm trying to figure out why when I paste the Pages text above the defaut Dropbox message the spacing between paragraphs is fine, but when I paste it below the default text generated by the Dropbox iOS app when e-mailing a link to a file, the spaces between paragraphs is doubled.
    It seem to be some phantom formatting in my Page document beause I tested by pasting a long e-mail below the Dropbox text and it's still single spaced. For some reason my Pages text goes from single spaced to double spaced when I paste it below that default message that Dropbox iOS generates when you attempt to e-mail a file link.

    Thanks, but this feature doesn't seem to work in iOS.
    The Pages document was created in Pages for OSX, but stored in iCloud. I usually e-mail links using the Dropbox iOS app and copy text from Pages iOS and want to paste into the e-mail created by Dropbox iOS. When I paste the text below the Dropbox link, the paragraphs are double spaced.

  • Passwords removed from Pages and Numbers when opened in iOS

    I'm I missing something or is it expected that passwords will be removed from Pages and Numbers files once they are opened in iOS?
    gbs

    Or at least not perserved.
    Do we know if iOS 6 will perserve the passwords from a desktop doc?

  • Can I drag/drop text from Pages to a video in iMovies?

    I want to insert in a video clip in iMovies a brief textual from Pages. How do I do it?

    You can copy and paste text from Pages into a Title in iMovie.
    As an aside, you can create slides in Keynote with a green background and use the in iMovie with the green screen effect. I have some examples if you are interested.

  • Will Lightroom 5 flow text from page to page?

    A little + sign appears at the bottom right corner of a text cell when the text overflows. I find I cannot pick up the additional text by clicking the + sign to place it on the next text cell thus linking text from page to page. Am I missing something or is such a useful facility unavailable in Lightroom? If that's the case, is there a good reason for Lightroom not offering text linking between pages?

    No, it's not InDesign, though it's easy to understand why that + indicator may make you hope that kind of flow may work.

    Someone is probably sending spam with your address forged on the To: line.  Could be one of your old contacts with a Windows machine has a virus that's doing it.  It's also possible your e-mail account has been hacked, though I'd think such a hacker would be a bit more purposeful.

  • Dynamic Text in Pages using Numbers file as input

    I was wondering if it is possible to have cells or text boxes in Pages that are dynamic and are filled
    in automatically using a source cell from a linked Numbers file as the input.
    I have proposals to write that always use a specific Numbers file to crunch the math, but I want
    to present certain parts of the Numbers file in a formal written proposal and don't want to redo
    everything by hand when I make small changes to the projects financials.
    Thanks!!! So glad I switched!

    There is no feature allowing us to link two different documents.
    You may try to achieve your goal creating the Text document in a Numbers sheet using text boxes.

  • Export Tables from Pages to Numbers with AppleScript?

    I've hit a stumbling block while trying to use AppleScript to remove a table from pages and paste it into Numbers.
    I've found no way to directly identify the table in the document to copy for pasting into Numbers and I've been unable to remove the other information from the document to isolate the table for a select all command.
    The easiest thing I can think of is a AppleScript to remove the first set of characters before the table or to explicitly extract tables only from the document.
    I've tried all manners of AppleScripts and I can't seem to get it to work. None of the AppleScript text selection commands work to remove the information other than the table.

    Try selecting the whole of the contents of the document and then running:
    tell app "Pages"
    selection
    end tell
    This will return a list of the selected objects, amongst which you should see something like: table 1 of body text of document id 15373020 of application "Pages"
    With that data you should be able to select just that item:
    select table 1 of body text of document id 15373020 of application "Pages"
    Obviously that's just an example. If you were scripting this, you would most likely work through the list filtering only those objects you want to work with - the tables in this case.

  • Copy formatted text from Pages into Mac Mail loses formatting

    Hi,
    I have a document template I use in Pages that eventually gets copied into an email for sending (rather than attached, it's the actual email body).
    Issue is, when I copy from Pages into Mac Mail, the formatting is horrible.
    The closest I have to a workaround, though still not 100% (just way better) is to Export the Pages file to Word format, open the document in Word, copy the text there and paste it into Mac Mail.
    It can't be this awkward, can it?
    Thanks!

    Couple of options:
    Use command shift 4 and draw around the table with the mouse curser ~ a png picture of your table will be on your desktop ~ use attach in mail and tick send windows friendly attachments too.
    You could also save Numbers as pdf ( Under the print option) and attach that instead.
    No doubt there are other ways.
    Best

  • High bill with unusual calls and texts from non-functioning numbers?

    We have a family share plan with 3 phones, one phone for my husband and two phones for our employees.  Our usual phone bill runs around $150.  Our last bill was over $600, the majority charges being on one of our employee's lines.  This particular employee has been with us for over 10 years, and has always been extremely trustworthy and very frugal in his usage of his phone to make personal calls (very infrequent and always less than 5 minutes in duration, unless made during the free nights and weekends timeframe).  Our latest bill showed over 1,000 texts to/from his phone, as well as over 3,000 peak calling minutes (both to/from his phone) alone.  Many of the peak calls are lengthy in duration (30+ minutes, up to 120 minutes).  I realize this post is long, so will divide it into headings so that it makes more sense:
    Information on usage:
    Our employee insists that he did not make these calls and texts (he does not even know how to text), and what is odd about the numbers that appear on the detail (both text and voice) is that they fit into one of two categories:
    1.  There are calls to two particular non-local area code numbers (and possibly bogus, as they have area codes 523 and 352(?)).  When I call the two numbers, I get the following messages:
    From my landline:  When called from my landline, adding a "1" before the 10 digit number, I get the recording stating that "your number cannot be completed as dialed, please check the number and dial again"
    From a cell number- When calling from my own VZW phone (on separate account from husband's), I get a VZW message that the number "has been changed, disconnected or is no longer in service"
    2. They are local area code numbers, but when I call the number, I get a recording asking me to enter my pin number (in other words, they are numbers that cannot receive incoming calls, but according to our bill, have not only made calls to our employee's phone, but also received calls.  I have done an online lookup on these numbers and they are all cell phones.
    3.  When I have tried to text the non-local numbers from my VZW phone, I get messages back stating that these are landline numbers and cannot be texted; when I text the local numbers, I have texted a generic message along the lines of "I can't reach you on the phone.  Please call me as soon as you can" but I do not receive a call back.
    We cannot speak directly with our employee right now (he is in Mexico to pick up his elderly grandmother),  nor can we access our employee's phone to check the log, call history, etc. because he has the phone with him.  Due to this, when we discovered the high usage, we immediately "suspended" the phone line so that no calls could be made or received.  Subsequent to suspending the line, we have talked to his family a couple of times -- one time he happened to call them on another line, so we talked to him "indirectly" through a family member on another line with him.  He was alarmed about the calls and insists he did not make them. 
    He does have children but they are forbidden (by him) from using the phone, and he states that he always keeps the phone in a case on his hip, thus no one else has access to the phone.  To go even further, it seems that most all of the calls to these unusual numbers are made on weekdays, during school hours, so I feel sure the calls were not made by his kids.
    Calls to Verizon:  When we first called Verizon, they suggested we suspend the phone until we could speak to our employee.  Subsequent to our indirect conversation with him mentioned above, we called them back and told them he stated that he did not make the calls nor send the texts, and that we believed the phone might have been compromised, cloned, hijacked or whatever.  First, the customer svc rep looked at our account and suggested that we put an unlimited text on the phone for the current unbilled usage (there were a lot of texts, and we have no text plan on the employee's phone), and then remove that plan once we get to the bottom of this matter. 
    Due to our concern about fraudulent usage, the customer svc. rep called the fraud dept. while my husband was holding on the line.  She came back on the line and told my husband that the fraud dept. said that "it cannot be fraud because if it was, there would be thousands of dollars in international long distance to countries like Pakistan and India." (WTH?)  Also, she said that it couldn't be fraud "because texts were sent to and from the telephone number so we know it was your phone."  (another WTH?)
    She then went on to say that it looks like texts were sent to international numbers (???) recently (these same 523 and 352 area code numbers I referred to above).  Number one, if these were international texts, it seems odd to me that these texts show up on our billed and unbilled activity as "domestic text" and there is no premium charge assessed to our account for international texts.  Number two, if these numbers were international numbers, I imagine that we would be charged for outgoing international calls, which we were not.  Further, I imagine that the numbers would be displayed on our bill in other than a ten digit format, but am not sure, as no one has ever made an international call or text on our phone.
    Next steps:
    Does anyone have advice for the next steps we should take and how we can get to someone in customer service who can actually help us with this problem, instead of what we experienced on our previous call?  Can we demand that Verizon launch an investigation through its fraud department on the activity on this phone, or is this at the discretion of VZW to launch an investigation?  I am unsure, since this was not given as an option by the customer service rep... 
    If we can get Verizon to launch an investigation, is payment of the portion of the bill with the unusual and disputed usage (namely, that which is over and above the usual usage) waived pending the investigation results, or will we have to pay the entire bill to both avoid having the phones turned off, as well as any detrimental effects to our credit?  We've been hit hard by the economy, both personally (I am out of work right now) and business wise (my husband's business has been doing only about 25% of its usual business), and we don't have the extra $$ for the bill unless we take it out of our grocery budget. 
    If anyone has any insight, suggestions or otherwise, I sure would appreciate it.  Sorry for the lengthy first post, but I thought it would be helpful to outline as much about the situation as I could in order that people could respond.  Thanks in advance!

    kbinga,
    I know this is a confusing and frustrating situation for you. I would be happy to review the account in detail to see what is happening with the usage and charges to ensure it does not continue to be a problem for you. Please send me a direct message for further support assistance.
    Thank you!

  • Cannot transfer .mov audio from pages to epub

    I am a total newbie at making epubs...
    I have dragged a .mov audio file made in quicktime into my pages document.  It is inline.  The audio file works when I click on it (speaker icon) in the pages document.
    After converting to epub, the speaker icon disappears and I have no audio available.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!
    I have pages version 4.1

    It's interesting that 'they' have decided to NOT let folks on 10.4 produce an ePub (from Pages). I understand that I cannot 'do' the whole ePub consumer side on this machine but I was hoping to get a bit of a headstart while on the road. (The mini at home base is running 10.6 and is my ePub production environment. That version of iWork9 does have the later Pages, which is why I was surprised when I could not find the same UI on my 'travel' machine.)
    As to why I don't upgrade the G4? I need one machine that can run Classic. So it will live at 10.4.11 for the rest of its life.
    I have my fingers crossed that today's announcement will include a suitable Macbook Air update ... one that is not too wide and/or too high. (The 13" 'books have been too large a footprint to replace my trusty 12" so I've been holding out...)

  • Acorbat Pro xi word integration strips text from pages

    Hi,
    I have Acrobat Pro XI and Ofice 2012, both fully up to date.
    When creating a PDF from the Acrobat tab on the ribbon, Acrobat will create the PDF but will strip the text from the first page. It leaves the pictures on the page, only removes text. If I select the "Different First Page" check box in "Headers and Footers", the PDF document is created sucessfully. This is not going to be acceptable.
    This issue has only come about since the update to XI from X. I have removed XI and installed X again to test, X still works and XI does not.

    Found the problem.
    Adobe, I found a BUG. I want a year of cookies.  Not the virtual type, I want real cookies.  Chocolate.  Maple.

    Create a doc and put some sort of FIELD in the footer.  I used STYLEREF and choose a Style.  That's a very common thing to do for keeping the title of your document in the footer.
    Now ... insert a SHAPE.  Make that shape sit BEHIND the text.
    DONE.
    Create your PDF.  The text won't be visible.
