Hello isaac, yeah I do all that, what you have detailed but when I next come to open the newly saved document, make some edits and then hit CMD S to save. It will pop up a dialog box forcing me to save it in a dot pages format. I just don't get why Pages won't continue saving the file into word once I've created the exported word doc file.
So does it continue saving into word, once you've exported it into that file format because it simply doesn't for me. It stubbenly wants me to save in its own format which to me kinds of defeats the purpose of word documents. Either its me or I'm not getting it. :( Daniel , On 30 Jun 2014, at 21:10, isaac <isaac.heb...@gmail.com> wrote: > If you want to save it as a word document you will have to go to the file > menu. > Next go to export submenu. > Next choose word. > After that you should be able to press command s to save it. > isaac > isaac.heb...@gmail.com > Skype gold_wildcat > > On Jun 30, 2014, at 1:54 PM, Daniel McGee <danielmcgee...@googlemail.com> > wrote: > >> Hi all, I only got one answer to this question below from this list.
