e Welcome to Pages
Pages is a streamlined, yet powerful word-
processing application that gives everyone the
ability to easily create great-looking documents,
from a simple letter or invitation to a monthly
newsletter or three-panel brochure. This preface
provides an overview of the features of Pages and a
list of resources for learning to use it.
Pages makes it easy to compose and design a variety of documents on your
computer, from a simple memo, to a neatly structured school report, to a highly
designed, elegant brochure. With the Pages tools, you can easily change the layout
and look of any document as you work. Present your data using any of the tables or
charts built right into Pages. Incorporate a multitude of text and graphics types—you
can even include movies, hyperlinks, and audio if you intend to publish your
document online. Use the templates that come with Pages to create smart,
consistently styled documents. Or create your own to suit your specific needs. With
Pages, anything you write is a pleasure to read.
Your Pages document can be exported to several different file types, including HTML
for online viewing, PDF, and Microsoft Word.
