I just checked out Pages today and I noticed that there is a way to insert page 
numbers.

 Hi, 
 
 I'm glad that the topic of word processors came up. I see that TextEdit will 
 be good for paper writing, as far as double spacing, and font changes. 
 However, I was wondering if there was a way to get it to put in page numbers, 
 or to see what page you are on in a multi-paged document. I'm just wondering, 
 since im going to be doing a lot of paper writing for school this semester, 
 and was trying to figure out if I should buy Pages.

Text Edit is not very sophisticated it's comparable to Wordpad/notepad.  But 
it's great place to just write and change fonts and stuff like that.  

Something I do frequently is write in TextEdit and convert to Pages.  But the 
Bean program might do more to.  I'm going to download this thing and work with 
it a bit.

Sorry, it doesn't seem as though you can do page numbers with Bean.  However, 
it seems to have more capabilities than text edit.

Brianna,

I completed my master's thesis by using Pages on the Mac. Once you get the hang 
of working in Pages, you'll be fine. I was even able to mark up the document 
with ehaders, a table of contents and include all of my references.

How did you reliably check the formatting of your text?  I was trying out Pages 
earlier today and when I hit vo+t to check the text attributes, all I heard was 
a bong from the computer speakers.
