How hard is it to print/convert from Pages to Word? (1 Viewer)

[lightthefuze]

Hi all,

I'm planning on purchasing a MacBook soon, and I am currently in the process of starting my IRP for Community and Family Studies.


I'd like to ask how 'hard' it is to print from a Pages doc to a Word doc?

I don't have a wireless printer, and I would normally type my documents up on either Google Docs, OneDrive, or Microsoft Word.

If I do type a document up on Word, I transfer it via email or USB and then print from there.

How would I do this from Pages to Word to print out? Would the formatting and everything else stay the same?


One of my friends used to own a MacBook and attempted the Pages to Word conversion and ended up with a blank page.
I seriously do not want this to occur this HSC year.

Is there a particular reason why you need to convert it to Word?

Yes, I print documents off Word all the time. Also, it's compatible with school.

This might be of some help.

From what I can see, you should be able to import Word files into Pages through the program itself without need to convert externally as well.

You can "save as" or export as a word document/PDF by going to File > Export ...

Tbh dont even bother. Get a copy of word.

Irrc if you to a gov school you can get it for free through det. Or various other means which I may not be encouraging.

Pages on mac is absolutely awful and hard to use.
