Saving documents in pages that are not in the pages format

2013-11-05 Thread Andrew Head
Hi all, 
I have a word document  i opened in pages. When i make changes and save, a 
dialogue box comes up asking if i want to save it in the pages format and in 
the documents location. I want to  always keep the document as a word doc, and 
in the e books folder. 
In short, when I save a document, I want the format and location Should stay 
the same, but my changes should just be updated and saved. 
Is there a way to do this? And if so, how? 
Hope everyone has a great day. 
Andrew

Hi,

As far as I can tell, the new Pages makes that a little more challenging.  It 
appears that Apple wants you to have Pages documents for the most part but 
allow you to export them to other formats.  So, to do what you’re asking:

1.  Up to the File menu.
2.  Down to Export.
3.  Right and down to Word.
4.  Interact with the second Unknown where VO should announce Word, press 
return.
5.  Press the Export button.

Pages will probably ask you if you want to replace the item, press the Replace 
button.

Sounds like a few more steps than you’re hoping for but, logical in some 
respects since you’re using the Pages app to manipulate Word documents.

Later…
