Best Mac learning channel on the planet, period.
True.
Completely agree.
You are the best! Nice job as usual at explaining how to.
You’re brilliant. Everything I’ve watched from you is useful and clear. Thanks so much! Xx
There’s so much I’ve learned from watching all your videos. Absolutely ace instruction and presentation for both a newbie and someone like me, who had used Apple products for years, but never knew that so many more (and sometimes exciting) things were possible and I am genuinely learning something new each time you publish a lesson. Thank you so much.
Super! Have always fiddled with sizing paper to print on unusual sizes. Great to know how easy it is to change paper size and save! Many thanks, Gary.
I'm so happy I found your channel! I'm loving my 7 year old Mac even more now!
Doing Gary's course on Pages at the moment and learning a lot even though I've been using Pages for years!!!!
That was terrific. So informative and although I've been using Pages for several years -you showed me many helpful new features that I'm going to try out now!! Thank you.
Pages is a terrific tool. I love it. Word processing becomes easy. It’s a powerful app.
I've been using Windows since 3.11 and Linux since 2000 and just recently purchased a Mac. I absolutely love this channel. I'm a developer but these videos are perfect to get up to speed on macOS even for technical folks. Thank you!
I've taken advantage of Apple 1:1 training programs when purchasing a new Apple product, you are lightyears ahead of the curve! Thank you for helping me raise my productivity!
Great one, *Gary* I have been using MS Word all these years - seems this is a better option.
Never looked into this but having watched this video definitely need to check it out, as always awesome stuff Gary 👏🏼
Great information for beginner writers like me. This video has helped me decide in favor of Apple Pages for writing my first book.
Wonderful presentation. I'm new to this, but MacMost will be revisited quite often.
Good job; I enjoyed learning with this video. I was trying to decide if I should switch from G Docs to Pages and after seeing this, I'm doing it. Thanks
This session was really good. You have helped me so much.
You're a great teacher. Love your video
Thanks brother. I have Pages, but have been using Word instead. Now, I learned something new.
Thanks for the great tutorials. You're a lifesaver, dude.
Well explained and a great demo.thanks😊
Thanks, Gary, for another wonderful video! You are the best!
Great as always, thank you so much Gary.
Thank you! These are all helpful for me as a student.
Thanks Gary for giving me some great ideas today for my Parish news letter!!!!
Keep up the good work. I learn something new almost daily

Awesome video thank you 🙏
Your information is so helpful keep up the good work Awesome MAC tips & tricks
EXCELLENT! THANK YOU!

Good stuff, I didn’t know you could do all that. I may actually use it now.
right about that...did not know...excellent gary.
THANK YOU !
Perfect timing on this one Gary. I just happen to be starting to write a book for my family. Great pointers. Thank you. 👍
I have published two books using Pages and Apple Books. It is wonderful.
@@gracesuarez3154 What do you do when you need to go outside the Apple universe. Thanks.
@@accentontheoff I try very hard not too. I can if I need to. I used Windows for 20 years.
@@gracesuarez3154 Doesn’t that massively restrict your potential audience. Sorry for pressing on, I’m a writer, and this is not an academic question.
thank you so much
Hi Gary. Congrats of getting 100k subs. I’ve been watching your videos since 2012.
Awesome!!!
You are so easy to understand and follow. Thank You...... I am wondering if there is a way to 'stretch' the font. I do scrapbooking and sometimes I only have a small space to a title ..... and I want to 'stretch' the title.
Next Level!
Great info! Going to subscribe to your channel!
As always super content
Gary. You rock.
Great tutorial. Now if I could only do line numbering I would never have to touch Word again!
very cool!
Very nice
I use pages but didn’t know about the hidden gems.thanks
WOW helpful
Thank you. I wish it did links!
Many thanks for a great video. Even though I have been using Pages for years I learnt something. For simple word processing/page layouts it's a great tool. However, for complicated drawings with hundreds of elements it's virtually useless. The problem has been there since they made it compatible with iPads. Any version after Pages '09 V4.3 slows down seriously to the point where it can take 5/10 seconds to select an object, rendering it unusable. I keep trying every new version as it comes out & none of them have so far fixed the problem. I've filed the problem with Apple many times but no change. Any ideas? Similar family tree drawings have worked OK on MacDraw, Claris Works & oIder versions of Pages, so why doesn't it work on the latest versions? In case you are wondering, I have a fast i5 iMac with 32GB Ram & 1TB SSD.
Excellent review! Can I create a pages documents and use them on a WordPress website? If so, can you demonstrate...
Keep in mind about those drop cap styles, they dissapear when read in EPUB format on an ipad using night mode where white text shows against a black backdrop. Something to consider.
Thank you very much, this is totally amazing… I mean it,, I could send documents 😁 very professional….
I like the fact , I can send pictures, and you Tuve link same documents……..👍👍 greetings from west palm beach Florida….
Gary, how do I move the cursor/pointer to the beginning or ending of a word or line? I could accomplish these shortcuts on my PC (i.e., in Word) but haven't figured out how to move the cursor in Pages, Mail, etc. Thx for all your helpful videos!
Wow! I learned a lot. Maybe you could teach some support people.
Your the boss
I am grateful for these tips. lots of fun and usefulness.
is it possible to set pages documents to certain pixel dimensions for later publishing to the web?
As what? Pages doesn't have a way to export as images. The only web-publishable format is PDF which would scale to any size that you use when embedding it into a "box" on a page. If you were to open the PDF in Preview you could export as images from there, and at that point you could set a resolution in pixels-per-inch. So using that number you could set the page to a specific size I suppose. Keynote, on the other hand lets you set slides to pixels and export directly to images, so maybe that is your better option.
I'd like to use Pages more. Can you recommend a web resource?
For Previous Versions, do I recall that there is added functionality if it's saved to iCloud? I thought that it would constantly save in iCloud instead of purposefully saving with Command + S.
Wow am surprised just found your channel. Autosubs. 👍🏼
Are image galleries supported in epub?
I love pages just wish more people were using it. Prefer it over word !
I have a question about iMovie. Are you up for a question? I do drone videos of real estate. Is there a way to have the property lines highlighted during the video?
Gary, i’ve been watching your videos in regards to Pages and learned a lot what I have yet to find is how do I insert a document that I’ve already worked on and that I want to merge it into the current document that I’m working on or if someone has created a page or two, and I want to merge that into my page documents, I’ve not been able to find how to import or add documents, and I was wondering do you have a video or could you do a video if it’s possible?
You just copy the content from one document, paste it into the other.
Thank you Gary, always look forward to and enjoy your videos - presented in simple and effective manner. Quick question is it possible to embed a TH-cam video in the cell of a Pages Table? I tried but it embeds a picture of the video thumbnail - please let me know if there is any way to do this. The same link embeds as a video link if I don't put it in a Table cell. Thanks.
No. You cannot embed a video as the contents of a cell. Even an image isn't there as the cell contents, but the background.
@@macmost thanks for the prompt response Gary
How about support for Latex code and math equations? Any help is appreciated
Will the images and videos gonna work on word documents?
Hi! Really enjoy your videos. I just got a Macbook and need to make a booklet. Can Pages do that? Do you have a video on that? Thanks so much!
There is no built-in booklet template like I think you are asking about. But you can build one manually if you like. It is just a matter of where to position things on different pages.
@@macmost If you design it as a booklet, say a letter-sized paper with a fold in the middle, and you design the pages as they'd look facing each other, how do you make it print properly so you can assemble the booklet?
@@nadafarmwife9290 Unless your printer does two-sided, you'd need to print one side first, then feed the paper in again. Create a sample document with just some filler sample content and practice to get it right.
This video is very helpful thank you so much. Can you also please show me how to check grammar on MacBook 💻 pro?
Using the built-in grammar checker will only find a few things. Maybe look into a third-party app if you really need it.
Thanks sir 🙏🙏
Thanks for the Video, Gary. May I know if there is any function in Pages v12.1 to find a 'TEXT' and replace it with a formatted 'TEXT'?
Not sure what you are asking here. Can you ask at macmost.com/ask and use an example?
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hey Gary.... Is there a way to use two monitors and split the Pages tool on one screen and the body of the text on the other monitor?
Do you mean the sidebar? No, you can't separate that from the window.
heh Gary thnaks for all. im viewing 2 pages at once while designing on pages and want the image to cross over into page on the right can this be done, so if book is open its accross 2 pages? hope this makes sense.
You'd have to have a duplicate of the image on the other page and have them both cropped as you like.
@@macmost ah ok, many thanks and most appreciated.
Hi Gary! Is there a way to force Pages to change the size of the image that I import? I don't want to resize each (which is just tons of work!! ;/) and Pages by default streatches the image making it big. I would like to force it make it say 30% of the width of the page. Is it possible?
You should resize only the first image you import into Pages. After having the image size you want to use in your document, duplicate your image and replace it with your new image (you can find it on the sidebar: format - image - replace). You can also duplicate the image by option dragging it.
I wanted to know if I can format my book for publication on Amazon KDP with pages. And which one is better Pages of InDesign?
Yes, you can export as a PDF or an ePub file from Pages, both of which KDP accepts. InDesign is a powerful page layout app, so it is much bigger than Pages, a word processor. But the learning curve would also be steeper. So which is "better" is subjective.
👍🏻
How to add border like I do on MS Word? Especially a border like the Christmas or Birthday decorations?
And if i add al these asee some things to my pages document, can I make it into a ebook for myself? I would need to save it as a what? An EPUB? Would the extras work then?
ePub only supports a small set of things word processors do -- they have to work on all ePub readers which include things like changing the font size, etc. PDF is the format to use if you want things to look close to how they do in Pages. But some interactive elements like videos and galleries aren't supported by PDF readers.
Gary - how do I do a runover footnote on pages from one page to the next? Could you do a tutorial video maybe?
What do you mean by a "runover footnote?"
I am using page on iPad. When I insert a picture into my text writing, the pic jump around,
I used pages briefly and then immediately installed LibreOffice. Can you change a setting on Pages to set the default file type of all new documents to .doc ?
Pages can convert a doc file to open it, or it can export a doc file. But while you are working on it, you are working on a pages document. Do work on Pages documents until you need to send them to someone who wants a word doc.
Do one for iPad
Hello. Is there a way to remove the colour of the pasted background of the text from a web page to pages? I can’t seem to get the pasted text to match the white background of the pages document. Thanks
When you paste, chose Edit, Paste and Match Style instead.
Unrelated to the video. But is there a way to hide the icon from my connected external drive from my desktop on a Mac Mini? Or move it into the doc??
Yes. Finder, Preferences, General.
@@macmost thank you so much
There is a lot of good stuff here. One thing I haven’t been able to find on Pages that I can do on MS Word. I have an ongoing document with information that has to be frequently updated. I set the document up in Word to automatically show the current date and time whenever I open it. I can’t seem to figure out a way to do this in Pages I can add date and time after I’ve opened it in pages, but I have to do that each time. Is there a way to have the Pages program do that automatically on a document as soon as I open it? Thank you.
No way I can think of, no.
Just wondering if I can do markups in pages on my iPad? I can’t seem to figure it out.
Markup? Usually you would be marking up PDFs or images. So you wouldn't be doing that in Pages, which is for working with Pages documents. If you want to markup a PDF, just use the Files app. View the PDF and there are iOS markup tools you can use.
Is selecting non-contiguous text really unavailable? can't believe it. It was available in Pages 09...
an you distribute the document with an image gallery as a Microsoft Word document?
I doubt it. Does Word have that as a feature? Try it.
I want to display photographs. Two photographs per page, top and bottom. Can a file of, for example, 80 photographs be inserted automatically ? I currently drag and drop one at a time.
No way to do it automatically in Pages. If all you want is 40 pages with 2 photos on each page, then you can simply print from the Photos app, choose that as your print option, and then click PDF instead of Print.
@@macmost OK, and thank you very much for the reply ! 😌
