What is a PAGES file?
PAGES – Apple Pages document. Pages is Apple's word processor. Its files open only in Pages itself and a few converters; LibreOffice can read many of them.
PAGES Converter →What is a PDF file?
PDF – PDF document. PDF is the document format that looks the same on every device: it fixes where each letter and picture goes on a page. It is made for reading and printing, not for editing.

Good to know
- The PAGES file is opened by LibreOffice. Fonts it does not have are replaced, so line and page breaks can differ a little from the program that made the file.
- PAGES is read by LibreOffice's import filter for it; very complex formatting can be simplified.
- Only Pages files saved by recent versions of Pages can be read; LibreOffice does not support every one.
- The PDF has the text and pictures of the PAGES file on pages of the same size.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting PAGES to PDF free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my PAGES files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because reading a PAGES file needs LibreOffice, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the PAGES file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the PDF look the same as the PAGES?
The pages keep their text, pictures and layout. A PAGES file that uses fonts the converter does not have is shown with similar ones, so lines can break in different places.
Can I convert several PAGES files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
