This was definitely useful. I didn't know about the textured text feature for basically turning pictures into text. This is pretty cool.

Great video. Thanks. Most of these I was unaware of. I'm a writer by profession, and Pages is one of my two apps. (I don't think I've ever fully recovered from Word Perfect disappearing oh, so many years ago.) You've reminded me that I probably only use 1% of Pages' features. (I've previously noted that I could easily go back to OS9 without missing a beat.) Looking forward to Part 2.

I agree with you in that Pages is a far more advanced application than most people realize. I used Pages many years ago when it was called “Pages by Pages” on the NeXT computer system that Steve Jobs formed after leaving Apple. So I am not surprised when he came back to Apple in ‘97 that Pages was brought with him.

Cool! When Pages first came out Apple spent a lot of time talking about how you could just drop all kinds of media, pictures, audio, video, spreadsheets, etc. right into your document to make your school report look extra cool, but they haven't talked about it much since. I think that picture gallery was brought in when the rolled iBooks Author into Pages and added the export as eBook option. I haven't see the image in text thing but I'm not at all surprised. These are all the kinds of things I would expect to be able to do easily in Pages (though not in any other word processing software). Yes, more please!!

Hi Craig - This was extremely useful for me. As a "Golden Oldie," I go way back to PageMaker. I nearly expired when I found out it was being replaced! I haven't spent a lot of time with Pages and get really frustrated when I can't find what I need. These tips of yours are FANTASTIC!! Question: I have an old article I wrote years ago that won't scan into Pages so that the text comes in to edit. Is there a voice app to use whereby I can read my article into Pages and have the text come up? Thanks so very much. Jude Hibler

Craig, Great video! I'll be uninstalling MS 365 when my subscription ends, so I've started looking into learning more about Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, as I'll begin using them in the rare times I need them. One thing I'd want to know about the 5 features in this video: When I share this type of document, many of those I share it with don't have Pages, but do have Word. It would be helpful to know if some of those cool features would translate well if the document was saved in Word format?

As a writerI decamped from Word when that wretched ribbon was introduced. (That after the paperclip was too much.) I am using LibreOffice but I'm getting to know more about Pages and I think I am going to jump ship, not least because of another little tip your viewers may not know about, press and hold a, e etc to see accented versions of the characters. Very useful for mod lang stuff.

No but you can convert the pages document (export or save) in a Windows format so that people with Windows computers can see them. That might help.

One feature that the other word processors have that I find indispensable is the *magnifier for working within the text. When I highlight a word in Pages and try to pull my curser over it to color just one part of it, there's no magnifier to let me see what I'm doing. It makes this task impossible. Did apple simply forget this very basic but essential feature?

@craigneidel Жыл бұрын

I'll let you know if I can find out anything on that but do a search on Google. It might depend on the version of MacOS you are on but here is an example of how to magnify on a Mac - www.lifewire.com/zoom-apples-built-in-screen-magnifier-198673
