Priority: low
Bug ID: 74169
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: support Apple pages format
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: pa...@bonedaddy.net
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: filters and storage
Product: LibreOffice
A Windows user friend of mine recently asked me to convert an Apple Pages
document to word format because their Apple user friend had sent it in a Apple
Pages format, which nothing outside of Apple/Google can view. Luckily the
format includes an embedded PDF file, which worked for the use-case, but it
would be nice if LibreOffice could natively open Apple Pages format and save it
as other formats.
There is a blog post here about the format:
http://xorglog.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-edit-mac-os-pages-documents-in.html
Basically this is the list of files inside:
buildVersionHistory.plist
index.xml (document)
QuickLook
QuickLook/Thumbnail.jpg (JPEG rendering of document)
QuickLook/Preview.pdf (PDF rendering of document)
thumbs
thumbs/PageCapThumbV2-1.tiff (weird TIFF image, not document)
There are some samples hidden behind a login (use bugmenot.com) here:
