How To Open Pages On Mac

broken image


Pages is a powerful word processor that lets you create stunning documents, and comes included with most Apple devices. And with real-time collaboration, your team can work together from anywhere, whether they're on Mac, iPad, iPhone, or using a PC.

To open Pages, click the Pages icon in the Dock, Launchpad, or Application folder. If the template chooser doesn't appear, click New Document in the bottom-left corner of the dialog. Double-click one of the blank templates in the Basic category. A new page is added automatically as you reach the end of the page. To open the same set of web pages every time you start Chrome, first open the web pages you want on separate tabs. Then, click the Chrome menu button in the upper-right corner of the window.

This wikiHow teaches you how to set Google as your Homepage on Mac. The way you set a homepage depends on the web browser your are using. The following steps will show you how to set Google as your homepage using Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. Tap any of those links to open the Web page. In Safari for iOS and iPadOS, tap the Tabs button in the lower-right corner of the screen (iOS) or in the upper-right corner (iPadOS). Like on the Mac. Right-click the link. A context menu will appear. If your mouse does not have a right mouse button, hold Control as you click. If you're using a hardware mouse with a middle button (including one with a scroll wheel), use it to click the link.

From the start, Pages places you in the perfect creative environment. It puts all the right tools in all the right places, so it's easy to choose a look, customize fonts, personalize text styles, and add beautiful graphics. And everyone collaborating on a document has access to the same powerful features.

Start with something beautiful.

Choose from over 70 beautiful Apple‑designed templates, and customize your reports, letters, and other documents any way you like. And, if you've ever dreamed of writing a book or fairy tale, it's easy to create interactive stories right inside Pages.

Choose a template

Pages includes two categories of templates specially designed for creating EPUB books. To choose a book template:

  1. In Pages on your Mac, choose File > New.
    In the document manager in Pages on your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, or on iCloud.com, tap or click the New Document button .
  2. In the template chooser, scroll down to the Books templates.
  3. Choose the template that's best for your content:
    • For books that use mostly text, choose a Portrait template. With a Portrait template, you can choose to use reflowable text when you export to EPUB. In the exported EPUB book, text adjusts to different sizes or orientations of devices. Because of this, your book may look different from the original document when opened in Apple Books or other readers.*
    • For books that use a lot of images, or that format content in columns, choose a Landscape template. Landscape templates are exported to EPUB with fixed layouts. The layout is maintained in the exported EPUB book. The layout doesn't change depending on the size or orientation of devices.

* If you decide you want the layout of your Portrait EPUB book to match your document's layout, you can always export your Portrait template-based document as a fixed layout EPUB.

Convert mac excel to windows. After you've picked a template you can add text, photos, image galleries, videos, shapes, tables, charts, and your own drawings to your document. You can record audio directly on a page in your document and listen to it in your EPUB. You can also animate drawings, which will play back in your EPUB. And, to make sure your book has a table of contents, use the Table of Contents view in Pages to add one.

With a Portrait template, new pages are automatically created as you add content. Your text automatically flows from one page to another. With a Landscape template, you must manually add a new page.

You can also copy a section from one word-processing document to another, or copy a page from one page layout document to another. Learn how to copy and paste pages and sections on iPad, iPhone, or Mac.

If you want text to flow from one page to another in a Landscape template, you can use linked text boxes.
