Have been using pages for a long time. But the tips you have explained are new to me. Thank you

You are such a great teacher, perfect flow and timing and really useful information. Thank you so much.

[Nemalikantisekhar]

Nice Explaining Thanks for Information

[photohype]

Great video, THANKS! 😎

I will definitely join your Zoom MacPAGES webinar whenever it is scheduled. Please keep me posted!

[warblog]

Invaluable information in a precise and professional video - thank you

[Starpawzz]

This is my first introduction to this. AWESOME! thank you!

[thewebstylist]

Luv Pages and #hatemicrosoft for years! Great tips, had no idea we could save our own templates, I’ll build all mine out tomm!

[arlenemurphy]

Love all your videos. Today is play day. Stay warm.

[maraleeross]

Thanks again for lots of good information. I had to watch on the rerun (sorry football day). I liked that you highlighted where you were on the page. I am getting it, and I will continue to tune in. What a great teacher you are TKU M

Funny this came up on my feed today. For the past 6 months I have been working hard to make the transition from windows 11 to IOS. I purchased a new Mac Mini about six weeks ago. Just today I deleted off my Mini both Excel and word.

Hopefully I will never look back. I also removed internet access to the windows machine so that it will remain as it is now.

Thanks for the tutorial on pages. I have not spent a lot of time on pages yet. Been working hard to get myself trained on numbers.

[KTF]

I’m so glad I found you right before my MS subscription ends! This is so helpful to get acquainted with the Pages app, I can’t wait to play around with it now! The export tip is 🔥and that very last one is 🤯! Only question is, when does the Numbers video come out 😂

[oraleeb.]

I appreciate this great video tutorial, however I use an iPad so the screen does not look like what is on a Mac computer. Do you have a video explaining how to use the Pages App on an iPad please? (70 year old senior here relying to be more tech savvy! Lol 😂)

[TheUnabridgedMe]

Thank you for another great video. I was wondering if you could tell me if it is possible to easily hyperlink a page to another page. Say you were doing a history essay and wanted to link to specific dates or personalities that you've already created a page for. Without cluttering your document it would be good to know if I could create a link to an event like you can in Notion. I hope that makes sense, many thanks in advance. Tx!

[jlperez]

This was a great and very useful video. Thank you!!!! Are you planning to do the same with the other iWork apps? I am very interested in learning more about Keynote and Numbers. Thanks!

My partner and I produce our (usually) 44 page local magazine using Pages and it’s superb. We collaborate - him on MacBook and me on my iPad Pro. We’ve got tables mixed with photos and PDFs in there, formulas in the tables that automatically updates the years for which magazine has been around (126 years and counting!) It’s got a lot of features we don’t often use but even so it’s excellent and powerful. And comes with every Apple OS. What’s not to love?

[ClementeCambara]

Great and clear explanation!! I'm trying to insert a header and footer that is wider than the boxes on the page. How can I add longer text to both?

[esterjanssen]

This was a great instruction. Can I ask another question? In my document I used more then one tekstbox, but those boxes don't go where I want them to go, they chance the position where they are placed. Any thoughts on how I can deal with that?

[sakthikumar]

I wnat to know the colon alignment
From top to bottom

I’ve been using Pages since I switched from PC to Mac back in 2007. These days I do everything on my iPad and Pages is great on iPadOS.
