I am afraid this is not correct.

Pages does not directly support rtf files, though I agree that this is surprising.
See

You can of course copy and paste text from an rtf file in TextEdit to Pages.

In terms of the original question I suspect that this has to be opened in a version of Word somewhere and re saved as a Word document and then the track changes may be available to Pages.

I believe that this may be possible in the Mac version of Office, as even though the edit content is currently inaccessible I understand the menu system is accessible.

It might be just easiest though to ask the originator of the file to resend it as a Word document.

Rtf files can be opened by any text editor. TextEdit can handle it and pages should be able to handle it. Surprisingly safari can open rtf files as well. I would check to make sure it's really an rtf and not a file.rtf.sneakextension

hey all,
I received an RTF with track changes in it. How can I access them on my Mac? It appears that Pages won’t open the file.
Thanks,
