Yes, Jon, thanks SO MUCH for all your help! I hate to think of Apple as a nonresponsive monolithic monochromic company like their major competitor, but it would seem that their priorities are askew. Another sad thing with respect to Pages is that I drafted a thread on the Pages discussion board abou...

I know that I have sent probably a dozen comments to Apple regarding this issue and most of you have as well, but it is whack to make two documents in Pages (one of text and one of figures), then to save the text to Pages document as a Word file, open in Word and run Bookends, re-load into Pages and...

I think that Apple has at least 4 requests for that from me. The RTF it produces is CRAZY!

Good thought! I will try that next time. One of the main reasons I like Pages is because it allows for easi(er) manipulation of graphics. I can always make the graphics in one file then, after referencing, place them back into the Pages document. Conversely, Pages could get its crap together to allo...
