Preface
Welcome to Pages
Pages is a streamlined, yet powerful word-
processing application you use to easily create
great-looking documents, from a letter, flyer, or
poster to a monthly newsletter or three-panel
brochure. This preface provides an overview of the
features of Pages and a list of resources for learning
to use it.
Pages makes it easy to compose and design a variety of documents on your
computer. With the Pages tools, you can easily change the layout and look of any
document as you work. Present your data using any of the tables or charts built right
into Pages. Incorporate a multitude of text and graphics types—you can even include
movies and hyperlinks.
And when you’re ready to share your Pages document, it can be exported to several
different file types, including HTML, PDF, and Microsoft Word.
