Processing a long document's even pages

I need to process my pdf because I have many pages with really complicated vector layers. I want to just rasterize the art, saved as jpeg or something like that but I would like to keep the pages that are all text in their vector form - luckily, it would seem, my "picture" pages are always even, my text always odd. So there's a clear system but I can't figure out how you might bring these even pages back in once they've been exported and have them automatically return to their original position, which is interleaved with the odd ones.
Anyone know of how you might do this without scripting or manually shuffling? My document is 200+ pages...
Thanks!

Yes, unless you've saved manually or have autosave software for it installed, which is only preloaded when using the latest Pages version on Mac OS X 10.7.

Problems displaying and editing long documents on small pages sizes

Problems displaying and editing long documents on small page sizes
I read this problem have called with the helpdesk they didn't know the solution but how can I find the solution:
In Pages 09, I can't scroll down andand click on text to edit it!! All the mouse will do is draw gray transparentboxes and not place the cursor in the text. Again, like the display problem, itdoesn't happen at the beginning of the doc, but starts showing up around 50 to60 pages in ... I can't select text at the bottom of pages ... at 50 pages, thecursor can be clicked into anyplace on a page. Further and further down, the unselectablearea on any particular page creeps up from the bottom line by line: at 175pages in the unselectable area is 12 lines high; at 360 pages in theunselectable area is 25 lines high. and finally at around 440 pages down, Icannot place the cursor anywhere on any page all the way to the end of thedocument.
I have Page versie 4.1

What you get was described here several times.
As we are end users like you, we can't change the app behavior.
Under 10.6.8 you have the buttons allowing you to scroll one line up or one line down.
Under Lion they are no longer available.

Batch process for setting document (language) and page (structure) properties

I'm looking for a batch process or script that will take a folder of PDFs and add some basic properties required by Section 508 (for accessibility) automagically--such as Document Properties where language=EnglishUS, and Page Properties Tab Order=Use Document Structure.
I'm not a programmer so any help is very much appreciated.
Thank you!

well on unix/Linux/solaris there are no drives but storage heirarchy starts with a root directory represented with ' / '. and all files and directories are created in root directoy like
/usr/local/bin
/export/home/san
etc
also filesystem of unix consists iNodes rathar than FAT entries as in case of Windows.

Pages 3.0 crashes opening a long document

Hi there,
I am running Pages 3.0 (with all current updates) on an iMac with Os 10.5.7 and 2 Gb of RAM. I have a very long document (almost 200 pages) with pictures and tables that worked fine until yesterday.
I usually make a backup copy of the file every evening just to be sure, however...... it seems that it's not enough!!
This morning a double click on the document leads to a Pages 3.0 crash. The application launches, a dialog box indicating a progress bar appears ("Opening") and then Pages quits.
The same happens if I try to open the backup copy! I am stuck and I can't access the file!!!!!!!!!
Disk utility says the the hard disk is OK (and so are the privileges).
What can I do?? I can't even export the file in Word as it crashes before I can convert him. By the way, the same happens on another Mac: it really seems that the document is now corrupted (without doing anything special...).
The funny thing, is that Quicklook works just fine: if I hit the space bar from the Finder, I can see the content perfectly.
What is going on???
Thanks for your help!

Simple:
The Index.xml file is no longer readable by Pages but as you saved a preview in the document this Preview.pdf file is readable.
(1) rename your doc from xx.pages to xx.pages.zip then double click.
You will get a package entitled "xx.pages"
control click it to see its contents.
In the folder Conent:Quickloock, you will get the Preview.pdf file.
(2) it would be interesting to send the document to my mail box so I would be able to add it to the set of corrupted documents which I already send to Apple Bugs Hunters to help them idntify the wrongdoers. Click my blue name to get my address.
(3) duplicating the last saved copy is good practice but it's not a true safe protocol.
If the last saved one is odd (like yours) the duplicate will be odd too.
This is why I wrote an Autosave tool which saves every ten minutes but which also keeps chronological date stamped zipped copies.
With it, if the copy saved at time X is bad, we may hope that the one saved at X-10 is OK.

HELP!? Remove 1 page from long document and shift all the rest pages

Hello,
I am facing to following problem:
I have a long document with facing pages. Now I need to remove one left page in the middle of the document and shift all the rest pages one step forward. It means from all right pages do a left and vice versa (started from the page that was removed). There is a continous text int the whole document and left/right strip made from different photos.
To clarify the situation I am attaching the preview. I have deleted page no.12 and I need to shift page 13 to left, 14 to right after 13, 15 to left, 16 to right after 15 and so on....
Is there any simple way how to do it?
Thank you very much for any tips.

It looks to me as if you may something else going on here. Are you using right-to-left text here so the document binding would be onthe right when the book is closed? If not, your problem is not with page 13 so much as it is with the earlier pages.
Unless you force it to do otherwise by disabling page shuffling someplace, in left-to-right documents using facing pages ID will always put odd numbered pages to the right of the spine and even to the left, the opposite for right-to-left documents. In either case, it seems like you have page shuffling disabled either for the whole file or for a selected spread. You can re-enable it from the menu in the Pages panel. When ID asks if you want to maintain the current number of pages on a spread you should probably say no. Either pages 1-12 will swtch sides, or 13 and following will, and your spreads will rearrange to put two pages together as they should be.
If you have overridden master page objects, a side effect of switching sides on the spread will be that the overridden objects will remain and the new master objects from the other side of the spread will appear behind them.

Long Documents

I have a long directory document that I periodically update.
When I tried to convert this from a Word document to an HTML page,
Dreamweaver 8 won't let me do it, giving me an error window saying
that the document would be too long, and that I should cut it into
multiple pages. Is there any way to bypass this, so I can continue
to use this long document as one page?

> Yes. It works and it's much easier.
I disagree. It works, but it's definitely not easier than
simply copying
from Word and pasting into the DW document. *AND* the code
that results is
better doing it the latter way, too.

Documents Created In MS Word Can No Longer Be Opened in Pages

After three months from the date of purchase of a new computer with Mountain Lion, I am now unable to open documents originally created with MS Word that were on my old system. For the first three months, when I clicked on Word documents, they opened in Pages. I could edit those documents but had to save them as Pages documents. Now I am unable to even open previously created Word documents.
Was there some sort of 90 day "conversion" period where all documents needed to be switched to a Pages format?

No, there was no time-limiting on that feature, it should still be there. It sounds like you're having a problem with Word files no longer being associated with Pages as the default. I'm guessing that dragging a Word file onto the Pages icon on your Dock would open it... is that correct? If so, select a Word file and choose File -> Get Info. In the Open With section, change the selection to Pages and click the Change All button. (Note that this is assuming that the Word files have the appropriate .doc or .docx extension.)

Hi ...
Checked to see how much free space there is on the startup disk lately?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If disk space is not the issue, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches that may help.
A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left corner of the screen.
From the drop down menu click Restart.
See if that makes a difference ...

How do I extract each page from a long document and email to separate adresses?

So here's my current situation. I have about a 200 page long PDF document. Each page has an individual customer number on it. Currently, I print out the 200 pg doc and email each one separately to the corresponding customer in numerical order.
First of all, is there a way that I can extract the 200 pg document into 200 individual documents with one page each? Second, is there an efficient way to mass email the 200 customers with their corresponding document only, without seeing the other 199 documents?

Splitting document - Acrobat Pro.
An experienced programmer could write JavaScript to pick up the customer numbers and do something with it, but it's not for the faint hearted.

I can no longer add a scanned document to a pages document since the recent update , how to fix ?

I can no longer add a scanned document to a pages document since the recent pages upsoftware update . Any ideas on how to resolve this ?

What is the format of the document(s)?
What exaclty happens when you try?\
Have you tried the Numbers forum?

After updating to 5.1, pages no longer lets me convert long, single page (up to 8 1/2 x 50) document to an 8 1/2 x 11 document with many pages.

I have been using pages to create a document that I always export in two ways. 1st, I export a single page document that contains all of the data (sometimes this can go as long as 8 1/2 x 50). I have to do this for web purposes. Next, I duplicate the document, and change the page setup to 8 1/2 x 11, turning it into a document with many pages. This is for printing purposes.
Before upgrading to Pages 5.1, this worked flawlessly. After the upgrade, when I change the document to 8 1/2 x 11, Pages just deletes all of the data after the 11'' mark.
I am trying to make it behave like it did before the upgrade: when I convert the document to 8 1/2 x 11, it just made as many new pages as necessary and didn't delete any of the data.
How can I do this?

Pages 5 is buggy and has had over 100 fetaures removed.
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder, use that.

Automatically numbering a long document in pages 4.3

I have an 86 long page document that each page is related to one another. How do I get up it's consecutive page numbering on the bottom of each page in this document?
I'm using pages 4.3.

You have clicked in the footer? Not that it needs to be in the footer.
You do have a Footer:
Inspector > Document > Document Margins > check Footer
Are you sure you are in Pages '09?
You are not trying to do this in a locked object?
