Possible with Adobe Acrobat, not Adobe Reader.

How can I completely remove pages from a Pages document?

I had a 44 page Pages document, 95MB in size (it had a lot of TIFFs in it). I deleted all but 9 pages, removing 15 of the 18 TIFFs, but found the document was still 94.7MB. Huh? I cracked open the document using Pacifist, and found a folder titled ".iWTrash" that is 78.4MB in size, containing 4 blank-icon documents with numbers (00000001, etc) for names. This is apparently the material from all the deleted pages. Why is it being kept? Is there any way I can get rid of it, reduce the file to the ~16MB it ought to be?
TIA,
Andrew Main

What action did you take to "delete" the 35 pages and 15 TIFFs?''
I selected them in the thumbnail sidebar and pressed the Delete key. The second time I did it I noticed there is a "Delete Page..." command in the Edit menu, so I used that. Which is what the Pages Manual says to do. In both cases, a dialog appeared asking if I was sure I wanted to delete page XX, and assuring me that "The section containing this page will be deleted." I don't have any sections in the document (it's all one), but I clicked the Delete button and the pages disappeared—but as I said, the document remained the same size, and when I pried it open with Pacifist I saw there was 78+MB of mystery data in it, in a folder titled ".iWTrash". The leading dot makes it invisible I guess, but I don't see why since it's hidden inside the document anyway.
As I recall, Pages documents were originally .zip files or something easily opened, but I thought I'd read that had changed. The contextual menu's "Open With" gives three possibilities: Archive Utility (which makes the 94.7MB Pages file into a 2.2MB .cpgz file, which when double-clicked recreates the 94.7MB original—now that's compression!); Pacifist (which opens the file so I can see what's in it); and The Unarchiver (which converts the Pages file into a folder of its contents, including the ".iWTrash" folder which is invisible in the Finder because of its leading dot.
Is this a WP document or a PL document?
It's a PL document.
I suspect you had floating images in a Word Processing document and deleted the text. The images are still there on the removed pages, if you do a series of page breaks they should reappear on the additional pages where you can delete them directly.
Well, no, it's a Page Layout document, and I deleted the pages, not the items on them (half had text, half had TIFF graphics). I tried adding blank pages back into the document, but they're blank; the text and graphics don't appear on them.
But all that data is still in the file, now in "bulk" form, doing nobody any good.
Okay, so I took the 9-page (94MB) document, with the 78MB ".iWTrash" folder in it, and deleted four more pages. But this time I first deleted the material on the pages, then deleted the (now blank) pages. Suddenly the document is a mere 6.6MB! I opened it up, and it has only the material that's visible in the document, no ".iWTrash" folder. The other 78MB has disappeared also. Seems kind of tedious if you have to first delete the material on the pages before deleting the pages; but maybe if you delete all the pages (with the material still on them) but one, then delete the material on the last page and then delete that page, it'll get rid of the whole mess? Complicated, and of course none of this is explained in the manual. Nor can I see any logical reason for it.
Another experiment: I took the 9-page (94MB) document, with the 78MB ".iWTrash" folder in it, and deleted four more pages, by simply selecting them and deleting them (without deleting the material on them first). Now the file is 12.5MB, and Pacifist reveals it has an .iWTrash folder of 5.5MB, i.e. approximately the material that was deleted this time, but it's lost the 78MB that was deleted the last time.
Well, this is all lots of fun, but it still makes no sense. If it's some kind of "dummy's backup", I can't see any way to make any use of it. Otherwise it just takes up space to no use.
The other possibility is images on captured master pages.
Do PL documents have master pages? On which you can place elements that will appear on all pages (such as, say, crop marks)? Seems to me my so-far brief perusal of the Pages Manual indicates not. Which doesn't make sense.
Thanks, everyone, for your responses.

Trying to delete pages 21-24 on iPhoto book but "remove pages" option grayed out and pressing delete button not doing anything. Help!

Trying to delete pages 21-24 on iPhoto book but "remove pages" option grayed out and pressing delete button not doing anything. These extra pages resulted from using Autoflow and now we can't seem to get rid of them. Help!

Good morning Old Toad.
I did as you suggested:
1) Booted from install CD.
2) Ran Disk Utilities on internal hard drive--no repairs necessary. For good measure, did the same thing on external drive. Also no repairs necessary.
3) Checked software update--no updates found. About this Mac said I was already running 10.4.7. For good measure, I downloaded the latest and installed it. Since it let me run the install, I'm not sure if I installed something new or reinstalled what I already had.
4) I rebooted from CD, ran disk utilities, ran repair disk--no repairs necessary. Repaired permissions and a lot of permissions repaired.
5) Tried to delete the files and the same old thing happened: kernel panic. The specific message:
panic(cpu 0 caller 0x00102A08): jnl: transaction too big (1587712 >= 1572352 bytes, bufsize 8192, tr 0x29f1fb0 bp 0x2801de40)
So there's no change in my status.
I'm trying to delete the files because:
A) They already take .5 Gb.
B) I can't get rid of them ever. If I move the problem files to a different folder, I can only do one successful drag-and-drop backup to the external drive until the "new" thumb segments become unerasable just like the previous versions and crash the system.
C) I can't even "just" drag and drop every file/folder except the thumbs, because that ends up crashing the system as well. So I have to drag and drop every file/folder in the iPhoto hierarchy individually. Which makes me less inclined to backup, which defeats the purpose of a backup.
D) After the iPhoto fiasco I'm just crabby about all the Apple screw-ups I'm experiencing and I want to get them fixed.
Thanks for your help. Any additional suggestions would be appreciated.

I need an economical product to insert/remove pages and convert PDF to PDF/A-1a

I need an economical product (under $100) to insert/remove pages and convert PDF to PDF/A-1a (or, if it can create PDF/A-1a directly from my scanner, that's good too). There's something for $50 but it only supports PDF/A-1b. Any suggestions?

As others point out, Acrobat is essential though a bit expensive. There are some very economical (i.e. free) tools that are extremely helpful in properly tagging a PDF.
- PDF Accessibility Checker (PAC) 1.3 from the Swiss Foundation Access for All validates the PDF for WCAG 2.0 compliance (to the extent that validation can be automated). It is far more thorough than the feeble accessibility checker that comes with Acrobat, http://www.access-for-all.ch/en/pdf-lab/pdf-accessibility-checker-pac/dl132.html.
- PAC 1.3's successor, PAC 2.0 performs the same job for ISO 14289 compliance, http://www.access-for-all.ch/en/pdf-lab/pdf-accessibility-checker-pac/downloading-pac.html
- PDFgoHTML from Callas Software provides a convenient screen-reader view of the document using an Acrobat plug-in, http://www.callassoftware.com/callas/doku.php/en:download. Both PACs also provide screen-reader views, but it is handy to have an Acrobat plug-in that provides the view in a couple of clicks.

How can I remove pages 5.0 to work with Pages 09 again?

How can I remove pages 5.0 to work with Pages 09 again?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
When you upgraded to Pages 5.0, the Mac App Store kept Pages '09 in case you want to use it again.
To access to Pages '09, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and open the old Pages version. To access to it quickly, you can drag the icon to the Dock.
I do not recommend you to remove Pages 5.0 or the Mac App Store will be always asking you to upgrade Pages. Also, Apple will add more features to Pages 5.0 in the future. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Remove page #s from certain pages?

I have page numbers on my master pages. Now how do I remove page #s from just the first and last page?

You can do it a number of ways. Make a new master based on the first and override and delete the numbers from that master, then apply it to the pages, or just override and delete the numbers directly on the document pages. If there is not other master content you need on these pages you can also apply the None master.

How do Remove Pages 5.0?

How do I remove 5.0 from my iMac and going back to 4.3 as 5.0 is so horrible?
I have real work to get done and it's like testing some non-APPLE Beta product.
I have a friend buying a new Mac. Can they just buy an older version of iWorks?

Thanks for the advise.
I used a free app called AppCleaner to remove all connected files.
I have now removed Pages 5.0 and now I'm getting my work done.
I really tried for hours on 5.0 and it just was just too difficult for me.

We removed Pages from the computer, but now we can't open Word documents directly. The computer keeps bringing up an alert that it can't find Pages to open the document.

We removed Pages from my husband's computer, but now when he tries to open documents that were created in Word, we can't open them directly, only through the Word Dialogue box. The computer keeps bringing up an alert that it can't find Pages to open the document.

Select one of the documents. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With panel select Word from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button. This should fix the problem.

Remove pages selection

Hi all,
Is that possible to delete a selection of pages, such the function with right click on a page selection : "Remove pages" with scripting ?
It's possible to do that with a loop, but the function with right click seems to be really quicker.
Thanks for your help and happy new year everybody.

Hi,
Suppose there is a table where each row has a remove button.
Now associate an event with remove button and in event parameters return the primary key of the row say
vendor_id. Now capture the event in process form request.
if("delete".equals(event))
String vendorid = pageContext.getParameter("vendor_id");//capture the vendor id from the event parameter
//Now loop thru the VO Rows and find the row for that vendor id
for(Row row = (Row)vo.first();row!=null;row= vo.next())
if(vendorid.equals((String)row.getAttribute("VendorId").toString()))
row.remove();
Thanks,
Gaurav

How do I remove Pages 5 and leave Pages 4.3

I had been using Pages 4.3 very happily and had created some useful files which relied on internal bookmarks and external hyperlinks to the web.
I upgraded my OS to Mavericks (from OS10.7.3) and along the line upgraded to Pages 5. I was not aware that there would be no back-compatibility with bookmarks. Luckily Pages 4.3 is still in my applications folder in an iWork 09 subfolder. It is however not possible to set the default application as Pages 4.3 - for some reason that just doesn't work.
Is there a solutions to this, in other words to get Pages 4.3 to open the files by default?
Alternatively, what is the best way to remove Pages 5, leaving only Pages 4.3 on my system?
Thanks for any help.

Pages 4.3 will run just fine in Mavericks. You do need to make sure it is 4.3 & not an earlier version.
Using Get Info to change all documents to open with Pages 4.3 doesn't work. It will work on individual files, but that could be a lot of files to reset.
If you want to keep Pages 5 there are a couple of methods to make Pages 4.3 the default. If you don't want to keep Pages 5 you can delete it. Just make sure you've reverted or converted any files to iWork '09 format first.
Method 1:
This was first posted by another user in this forum. I can't remember who or when. It has been "fine-tuned" by Peter Breis & I added a note for what works for me.
1. Move any new iWork apps in another clearly labelled folder. I created a new folder in Applications & named it iWork 13.
2. Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy > drag the above folder into the list
3. Move the new iWork folder into the trash (temporarily)
4. Select any Pages file in Finder > Menu > Info (cmd+i) > Open with: > Pages '09 > Change all
5. Retrieve the new iWork folder from the trash (right-click > Put back)
Pages 5 should no longer appear as a default App, and you won't have to keep a copy in a separate drive or dmg.
Important: Make a note of where and how Pages was installed for the next App Store update and temporarily move it back there before putting it away again in the folder concealed from Spotlight.
Method 2:
This is the one I used based on several posts here shortly after Pages 5 was released. I now use method 1 because I find it easier to apply updates when Apple releases them.
1. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "other applications."
2. I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder & renamed the applications Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3.
I no longer have the new versions of the iWork apps installed on my main Mac. I'm not sure why, but the Mac App Store does not nag me to update.

Remove page in I-photo

I'm making a book in I-photo. There are some pages I want to delete, however the "Remove Page" selection is grayed out. Help!

Maybe my explanation was not clear... (sorry about the typo)
It does not matter what external editor is now selected. I think the default choice is actually to have no external editor and do editing using iPhoto.
Go to iPhoto preferences, on the Advanced tab. Find the setting that says Edit Photos. Change that settting so that it says In Pixelmator...
NOTE: To change that setting, you need to select the choice that says In Preview... (if it is currently set to use Preview). That opens a dialog box where you can find and select Pixelmator instead.
(My version of iPhoto is 9.3.2.)

How to remove remove page headers and footers

Hello
I can't seem to remove headers and footers from my sheet in print view. I am trying to print a chart and the header and footer are eating up valuable real estate! When using 'Pages' I can simply turn them off, where is the equivalent setting in 'Numbers'.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Is it really useful to respond to a ridiculous rant ?
We may perfectly define zero margins.
What can't be done is to completely get rid of Headers and Footers as we may do in Pages.
When we enter zero in the Header and Footer fields, we are defining the offset of the item to the top/bottom of the printable area. We don't set the item's height to zero.
A workaround allowing us to get quite zero margins in Pages :
Put the cursor in a header.
Define the font size to 1.
Put the cursor in a footer.
Define the font size to 1.
doesn't apply to Numbers.
If we set the font size to 20, the header height become greater, if we set it to less than 10, the application set the item's height to 10 points.
From my point of view, it's clearly a bug (already reported) but I don't know any application with no bug.
So, if Mr MayBeDay is able to create an application without bugs, he may send a curriculum vitae to Apple which will certainly be glad to sign him.

How to remove pages when combining 2 pdfs into a single document?

I renewed my subscription to Acrobat for $89.99 in order to combine 2 pdf documents while removing a page from one. I used to be able to select the pages from a document prior to combining the 2 documents. Now there does not appear to be an option to select pages for combining... What am I missing?

You said in your first message that you subscribed to Acrobat. Our replies were about Acrobat. Indeed, PDF Pack doesn't enable any of those things.
