[G4] (G4) AppleWorks 6.2.9 - the end of an era...

Direct from "pages" Help page...

You can import documents and media files that were
created using other applications into a Pages
document.

Here are ways to import files:

To import a document, drag a document created using
Microsoft Word or AppleWorks to the Pages application
icon. A new Pages document opens, and the contents of
the imported document is displayed.

To import a media file, drag the image, music, or
movie file from the Finder or the Pages Media Browser
(click Media in the toolbar) to an open Pages
document.

Imported media files can include images (such as those
that iPhoto supports), PDF files, QuickTime movies, or
Flash animations.

Items imported from Microsoft Word include styles,
tables (including formulas), inline and fixed objects,
charts, footnotes, endnotes, bookmarks, hyperlinks,
lists, sections, and merge fields.

Items imported from AppleWorks include lists, tables,
spreadsheets, charts, inline and fixed objects,
footnotes, endnotes, bookmarks, hyperlinks, and merge
fields.

So I guess the answer is yes... but then I'm still
learning. I just tried it and it works great. Guess
over the holiday I have to import all of my business
folders over - that going to take a while.

Otherwise - Here’s hoping all will have a Safe and
Happy Holiday Season!
