Pages for Posters?

I am looking for a program on the Mac to create big, professional posters for the presentation of data at scientific meetings. The only thing I came across on a Web search was PowerPoint. Can Pages do this? I am an avid Keynote user and would gladly get Pages if it would facilitate this. Anyone have any experience/tips for doing this?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
If you have Keynote but don't have Pages you must be using Keynote 1 since Pages & Keynote are the two programs in iWork '05 & iWork '06. They are not sold separately.
I don't see why Pages wouldn't handle this quite well. Pages 2 (iWork '06) even has a "Lecture Poster" template. Being familiar with Keynote should help you with Pages. A trial of iWork '06 is included with all new Macs as well as iLife '06. I'm not sure if it is still included with retail boxes of Tiger (iWork '05 was when Tiger was first released).

  • Is there Cap lock shift lock in Pages for iPad?

    Using pages for iPad is there cap lock/shift lock function. It is very difficult to do headings or posters without this function.

    Go to Settings > General > Keyboard and turn Enable Caps Lock to On. When Enable Caps lock is On then double-tapping the shift key will lock it down (it turns all blue). YOU CAN THEN TYPE ALL CAPS,

  • I have Pages for the iPad and desktop, how can I save it besides the iCloud on my computer and not the iPad?

    I have purchased Pages for my desktop iMac and Macbook Air.  I also have it on my iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch.  They are all synced through the icloud, but the space is now starting to fill up.  (I am the guy asking trivia questions and it fills up with A LOT of questions).  BUT, after each week, I can get rid of 3 documents (16 questions per document).  So, I have roughly 80 games worth of trivia and half of which I would like to save on my computer.  I can pull it up on my computer and it shows that I have that from the icloud, but not on the desktop.  I have lots of space on my desktop to save these, but the iPad is not as large for space.
    How can I transfer roughly 40 documents (from pages) from the icloud to the desktop, (for permanent storage)?  do I have to do each one individually, or is there a select documents you want to move?  Then I can delete from ipad as it seems to take up space on both the ipad and the icloud.
    Thank you in advance.

    Just ignore that post above. I tried to edit it but was too late. Deleting a document from iPad does delete it from iCloud.
    Ignore the line 'There is no data limit on iCloud.com so you could keep all your documents on there' because of course then they will sync to your devices and that's not what you want.
    Sorry, for the confusion.
    Removing documents from iCloud:
    iCloud: Remove documents from iCloud
    You can also move documents to your computer by opening Pages, select iCloud and all the documents you want to move, and drag them onto your desktop (or folder).

  • Logical symbols in pages for IPad? Asking for help

    I have a new IPad and I would like to define logical symbols on my keyboard (just like ą, ę and so on). Is there some way to do it and to use it in PAGES for IPad? I would prefer to have few math symbols defined directly under some bottoms and not to use copy/paste. (I tried to find in Pages for IPad some special characters, but there are no such things, perhaps it is possible to add it?) I have also small separated keybord (perhaps this could be somehow used...?)

    Afraid you cannot define custom characters for any keyboard in the iPad. What accented characters there are can be shown by holding the appropriate letter down.

  • Infopackage Idocs in status 2 - could not find code page for receiver system

    Hi,
    We just migrated our production system from BW 7.01 non unicode to BW 7.4 on HANA.
    We now encounter issues with idocs while loading data into bw from our ECC5 source. When we analyze idocs in the source system it appears with the message "could not find code page for receiver system"
    One weird thing is that the idoc seems to have been created before we started the infopackage in bw.. We controlled system time and AS time and everything seems ok.
    We did not encounter this issues on our previous migration test runs..
    Hope someone can help
    Christophe

    Hi,
    Thanks for responding. We finally found out what the problem was.
    We have two applications servers on our ECC with 2 different OS. One of them could not reach the new BW HANA server.
    Regards

  • I bought pages for my macbook air, but it is not showing up on my desktop mac

    I recently purchased Pages as it is on my ipad / iphone / ipod touch, so I thought why not have it on my Macbook air and desktop mac.  I bought it on the Macbook air, but it is not showing up on my purchases, and if I go to download it on the desktop, it states it is 19.99.  What am I doing wrong?

    Apps installed on your iOS devices cannot run on Mac OS X. Two different operating systems.
    If you want Pages on your Mac, you can purchase and download the Pages app for OS X here.
    Be aware, the minimum requirement for Pages for OS X is v10.9 or later.

    Have you moved Pages from its installed location? Or just dragged a copy to your current system?
    It can't find some of its resources apparently.

  • How to get pages list for a group space or create a page for a group space

    hi All,
    I am using wc11.1.1.3, I want to use java api to implementing the following functions in site template:
    1. Get pages list for a given group space
    2. Create a page for a given group space
    I researched the following codes from web site:
    PageDef newPage = mPageService.createPage(
    PERSONAL_USER_PAGE, pageNameFormat, pageTitle,
    "MyPageTemplate1.jspx",
    "/mytemplates/",
    null, null, null);
    What should be used instead of PERSONAL_USER_PAGE if a group space page is intended to be created? which parameter is for defining group space name that the page should be created for?
    By the way, PageService seems has method for getting list of pages, but how to use it to get page list which is in a specified gs?
    Best regards

    did you manage to get the page list using Page Service API?

  • Problems with the new Pages for Mac

    I'm starting to see countless problems running the new Pages for Mac (5.0.1) and I can't find a way to resolve them.
    1. when I'm typing and want to delete word(s), I'll use the alt+delete function for ease, however this starts deleting words after the cursor, merging words together and changing my sentece. It comes from when I'm deleting as the new pages is giving me the dropdown menu for the autocorrect word.
    2. grammar check is off. Namely, it picks a random point in a word and moves on from there. EX: "because of the" will have "use of the" underlined in green and give me recommendations to change to "because of the" or "cause of the". Using those recommendations, I'll end up with something like: "becabecause of the"
    3. the find and replace function jumps around in the paper, and sometimes doesn't even display the word currently selected (leaving the user to scroll around looking for what is selected)
    4. Autocorrect has vanished for some reason: no autocapitalization, no turning fractions such as 1/2 into a tidy and neat fraction with small numbers for numerators/denominators, etc.
    I'm still using it, and these are what I have found, so there may be more later as I continue to use it. If anyone has found ways around these bugs, please let me know.
    Thanks!

    Pages 5 now uses the system autocorrect, which does not have as many features as the one inside Pages 4.  Some things you can add manually there.   Others you have to ask Apple to add via
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Or continue to use Pages 4 instead.

    Well,
    it's up to you. The first part (Mcit-Project-ViewController-context-root) is the context root which you define in the view controller project. 'faces' is the name the servlet filter reacts on. You can't omit it but shorten it in web.xml. The rest is your directory structure. I'm not sure how to shorten this other as to move the jspx files back into the web root folder.
    By the way an ADF faces app never uses the .jspx at the end of the url. If you specify '.jspx', you only render the page but don't start the work flow.

  • How can I make a intro page for my website, then after the intro has run make the page automatically change to my we site home screen

    how can I make a intro page for my website, then after the intro has run make the page automatically change to my website's home screen

    You can do this using a meta refresh but the problem is you have to add it to the html file for the page very time you publish changes.
    A better way is to create a splash page and upload it to the server outside of the folder produced by iWeb. Example HERE.
    The meta refresh is added to the head section of the html file...
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="32;url=http://www.domain.about.com/Page-Name.html">
    The delay time in seconds is marked in blue and the URL to the redirect page is in red.

  • Pages Document created on Macbook Air cannot be opened on Ipad Mini. I get a message that reads, "only documents saved in pages '09 may be opened." These devices are one week old and I just downloaded Pages for each.

    I just got a Macbook Air running 10.8.2 and an iPad Mini. I downloaded Pages for both. I created a document in pages on the MBair and tried to save it to the iPad Mini so I could work on it while commuting and the file does not show up on the mini. I have tried to saved the file through iTunes app page and the message keeps telling me I can only transfer files saved in Pages 09. What gives? I can transfer files made in Microsoft word no problem, but files made in the same program do not work. Any help?? Very frustrating.

    You are aware that Pages for Mac and Pages for iPad /iPhone/iPod are 2 different program?
    Looks like you have Pages for Apple mobile devices but not for your Mac.
    If that's the case
    Pages for Mac: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/pages/id409201541?mt=12
    Pages for iPad/iPhone/iPod touch: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/pages/id361309726?mt=8

  • .pages file created in Pages for Mac won't open in Pages for iPad

    Just created a pages document on my Mac, saved it to my google drive and when attempting to "open in" from my google drive the file won't open in pages for iPhone or iPad (mini).
    All versions of Pages are on latest release.
    Messge reads:
    Document can't be imported.
    The file format is invalid.
    I download both the mac app and ios app a week ago.
    Thank you for any info!

    I've been testing file structures via google drive this morning and have yet to find a solution.
    Compressed files will not open in Pages on the ipad and an upload to Google Drive of a .pages document re downloaded to my desktop will no longer open in Pages on the Mac.
    Somewhere in the google ecosystem during upload or download / "open in" (on the ipad) the file is being restructured so that it cannot be recognized.
    An hour call with the team at Google hasn't supplied an answer yet and they have opened a case file to investigate.
    I'll update when I hear back.
    Thanks!
