As far as I am aware export should work. As a clunky work around, select all the text and paste it into TextEdit. This can then be saved as an rtf file which can ve opened by your friend in Microsoft Word on his PC.

I have a friend who needs to see a pages document I have, and is working on a pc. I need to convert this document to microsoft word. I hit file, then export, then word and followed the instructions and saved it. It saves the new document, but when I go into my documents folder to view it, it still says it's a pages document. Somehow, it's not actually making it a word document. Thoughts?
