File extension .PAGES
The PAGES file format is used by Apple's Pages word-processing application as its native file type. It is a proprietary format, and the exact layout of a .PAGES file is unknown to any user who does not utilize Apple's software. It is a modern document that can contain text, images, tables, graphs and pages, all of which are stored in a single file.
Apple Pages documents are supported on a variety of platforms, including macOS, iOS, and even Windows, via iTunes for certain devices. Documents saved using this software can contain complex layouts with more features than most standard documents formats. For example, support for text boxes, page numbering, and the ability to create hyperlinks.
File Extension Similar to .PAGES
Some other file types related to the .PAGES format include .TEMPLATE, .KEYNOTE, and .NUMBERS, which are used by other pieces of software created by Apple as part of the iWork suite. Furthermore, documents can also be exported to other less-proprietary formats such as .RTF, .PDF, or Microsoft Office documents such as Word or Excel.
Programs for MAC system
Programs for IOS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PAGES) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .PAGES extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .PAGES file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .PAGES extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .PAGES extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PAGES file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PAGES file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .PAGES file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PAGES file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PAGES file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
