Superscripts using pages on ipad?

Can I create superscripts, subscripts, do strikeout of text, and highlight text using Pages on the iPad?
Thanks
Jim Taylor

Have you tried inserting an explicit page break instead of extra blank lines? It might affect the page layout algorithm differently.
I should mention that I have not experienced the problem you describe, so I cannot test this theory.

  • Footnote formatting changed after using Pages on iPad

    Hi all,
    I recently created a new document using Pages '09 on my iMac.  I then uploaded the document to iCloud so that I could work on it on my iPad.  I opened the document on the iPad, addded and changed some text and inserted some new footnotes.  When I went back to my iMac and downloaded the updated document and began working on it, I noticed that whenever I insert a new footnote the font size for the new footnotes is now 12, where before it had be 10.  Everything else seems to have stayed the same.  The font, type (regular, bold, etc.), just the size is now different. 
    Is there a setting in pages that I can go into and reset the default font size for footnotes to 10?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks Peter,
    I just tried that and it seemed to partly work.
    I tried creating a new footnote.  I then selected the text in the footnote, including the number, but there was no style name highlighted. 
    I then tried clicking on Footnote Text and it reformatted that note to the correct size (10 pt).
    I then clicked on the little triangle and Redefine Style from selection and it changed most ot the footnotes in the document to what looks like superscript.  I say most, because as I page through there are some that did not change.  I think the ones that didn't change were footnotes that were already in the document before editing it on pages on the iPad.
    So I undid everything and tried something else.  This time I only selected the text in the footnote, not the number.  There was still no style name highlighted.  I clicked on Footnote Text and it reformatted that note to the correct size (10 pt) again.  I then clicked the red triangle but Redefine Style was greyed out.
    This is really behaving is a bizarre way from what I can see.  I'm not sure why only some footnotes would change and not others and why I can't just define a footnote style that used to be the default.

  • Spell checking in other languages using Pages for iPad

    Does anybody know how to spell check a document in a language other than the primary language? For example the iPad is using English but I want to write a letter in German.
    This was simple to do using Pages on the Mac. So far I'm stumped.

    Did you actually try this with Pages?  In the past this app had a bug where switching the keyboard did not work, you had to switch the OS language, as was stated earlier in this discussion.  If that is now fixed, that is good to hear.

  • Using Pages in iPad, I save to iTunes and synch w/ iMac.  Where does the Pages document go-I cannot find it?, Using Pages in iPad, I save to iTunes and synch w/ iMac.  Where does the Pages document go-I cannot find it?

    Using Pages on my iPad, I save to iTunes to share it with my iMac.  After download I cannot find the documents in my iMac.  Not in Pages, not in iTunes, so where do they go?

    Until Apple updates the desktop versions of the iWork apps you have to use iCloud.com in a web browser or iTunes to sync files. You could also try e-mail or DropBox.

  • Using pages on ipad

    I want to work on an existing pages document on my ipad. How do I do this?

    Many of us don't have an iPad (yet) & don't have experience with the iPad version of Pages. Fortunately, for you, there is an Pages for iPad forum.

  • How to: Subscripts and superscripts in Pages for iPad?

    I have a little problem with Pages on my iPad; I must realize a scientifical report and I need to use subscripts and superscripts. Are they present in Pages??? How can I attive them?
    Thanks.
    Best Regards
    Enrico Catanzani

    Does Pages on the iPad have an Inspector panel? In the Mac version, it's a round blue button in the icon bar at the top of the window.
    If you've got that in the iPad's Pages app, then you can use it to manually raise or lower the baseline of one or more characters, then use the font size to make them smaller. Superscripting after a numeral can be automatic (in the Mac version) by setting that in the Prefs.
    You can probably tell I don't have my iPad yet.

  • Using Pages for iPad, how to replace images

    Hi. 
    I'm new to Pages.  I have created a Pages document with text and photos.  I'd like to create more documents using the same basic format.  I'd like to be able to click on a photo and choose a new image without the image size changing in the document.   I thought I had tried this from a pages template on my friend's ipad but I can't figure it out now that I have my own ipad.   Any help appreciated. 

    These are merge fields.
    A double tap on them selects all and then you can type whatever you want in their place.

  • Using Pages on iPad mini retina

    We opened Pages & were looking at the list of documents saved when it suddenly went blank showing the message "No documents".  We have now been unable to find those documents, so would appreciate any help in restoring them & stop it happening in future.  Needless to say they were work-related & not backed up - I know, will do better in future.
    Thanks

    I assume that you mean that you see the documents in Settings>General>Manage Storage>Documents & Data>Pages. I would also conclude that if you see the documents in there, them they must still be in iCloud.
    First close Pages completely and reset your iPad and see if they reappear.
    In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    IF the the documents still haven't appeared on the iPad, you can go to iCloud.com on a computer, log in, click on the Pages icon and see if you can find them in there. If necessary, you can download them to your computer and then transfer them back to the iPad using iTunes file sharing.
    iOS: About File Sharing
    Something else that might work is to delete Pages from your iPad and then install it again. If the files are really in iCloud, you will lose them when you delete the app, but they will download from the cloud again when you reinstall Pages. I have done this a few times when I was having problems with Pages. But be aware that this will not work unless the documents really are in iCloud.

  • Don't have iwork on mac, but can i still use pages on ipad 2?

    I was planning on getting pages for my ipad 2 that I just ordered recently. But if I don't have iwork on my mac, can I still open up the document on my computer? I have microsoft word on my mac. I would just like to know if there is any way to open up a pages document on my mac from my ipad if I don't (and not planning on getting) pages for my mac. Thank you!

    Since you don't intend to get iWork for your Mac and use Office, consider one of the Office compatible apps available for the iPad. QuickOffice and Docs2Go open/save Office files natively. There are trade-offs for each of the two and you should search out reviews of each to see which is best suited but in my opinion either would be a better solution than iWork for someone who has no intention of using iWork on their Mac.

  • Using Pages app, how can I separate a document into individual PDF pages on iPad to email

    I am trying to email individual pages of my document to different people as PDF attachments. I am using pages for iPad and I don't see the option to email current page as PDF, any help appreciated!

    If you don't have iTunes you will need to buy the song from the iTunes store and download it that way. If it is a custom track you may be out of luck.  The only way to get a song on your device without iTunes involves jailbreaking it. 
    iOS is set up to prevent people from emailing each other songs, videos, movies, books, etc. This is how Apple got their contracts with the content providers by promising that they would do what ever it takes to prevent people from sharing content that they didn't pay for.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Tab Function in Pages for iPad moved?

    Was using pages for ipad today, and I used to use a tab function from the top menu bar by hitting a button that looks like an align button and it allowed for page breaks and tab functions.
    I think I updated pages, and now I have to hold down as if I were to select a word or words, use the insert function, and then get to Tab/Page Break.
    Is there a way to change this preference? It was so much easier the with the menu bar button!
    Thanks,
    Nate

    I am trying to create a simple table, with varying column widths, eg Year Month Day Description. After going through the very limited options in Pages and doing plenty of Googling I have come to the conclusion that Apple doesn't allow you to have varying column widths in a single table :-( So I tried to create a custom table by using tabs, ie Year <hold, insert, tab> Month <hold, insert, tab hold, insert, tab> Day <hold, insert, tab> Description = 4 tabs = 12 steps :-( A Tab button on the keyboard would've been great, but the Ipad keyboard doesn't have one :-( neither do they allow me to customize my keyboard :-(  I found software that seems to be able to do what I need but Apple says I'm not allowed to purchase the software in my country :-(

  • Tables and cells in Pages for iPad

    I am using Pages for iPad. I am writing in a table and when I write a large content in a cell, it desappears on the bottom of the page.
    Is there any way to make the cell to split automatically when it reaches the bottom of the page?
    Thank you for your answers.

    You could send your need to Apple and maybe they will add it.
    Send feedback/suggestions to Apple.

    Also, I read that Microsoft may soon provide and Office version for Apple's iDevices.
