Convert Pages to PDF
Turn an Apple Pages (.pages) document — including old iWork ’09 files that Pages itself no longer opens — into a PDF anyone can read.
How it works
- Drag and drop your Apple Pages (.pages) files below.
- Reorder them if needed.
- Click Convert to download as a PDF file.
What this tool does to your file
An Apple Pages document’s text is extracted and written to a PDF anyone can open, including people with no Apple device. It carries the wording rather than the design: images and exact layout are not reproduced, and no fonts are embedded. Characters outside Latin-1 become a question mark — the same rule the other text-to-PDF tools follow — with one deliberate exception made for this format. Pages runs macOS text substitution by default, so a document typed with an ordinary apostrophe is stored with a curly one, and every double hyphen is stored as an em dash. Those are converted back to their plain ASCII originals rather than becoming question marks, because a document with a question mark where every apostrophe used to be is not a successful conversion. Non-Latin scripts still become question marks, where substituting would be the lie.
What happens to your files
- No account needed — Every tool works as a guest. Signing in raises the limits and keeps your files together, but nothing asks you to register before you get a result.
- It runs in your browser — There is nothing to install and nothing to keep up to date. Files travel to our servers over an encrypted connection, and come back the same way.
- Your files stay yours — Files and results stay in your account until you delete them. Files from a guest session that is never linked to an account are removed automatically after a period of inactivity.
- Size limits, stated up front — Up to 10 MB per file as a guest, and up to 25 MB signed in. You see the limit before you upload, not after.
