Opening a Pages file in Windows

Yes, I know Mac users never wish to use a PC again, but 90% of the world still uses Windows.

If you have a document made in iWork’s Pages, and all you have is a PC at school or work, use this trick to open the file as a PDF.

First, save the file to your PC’s desktop.

Next, right-click on the file and choose “Rename.”

Add “.zip” to the end of the filename, and press Enter.

Last, open the zipped folder and view contents. You’ll see a file with the extension .pdf – you’ve just created a PDF of your document!

While you still won’t be able to edit the document, you can view it, and even use Adobe Acrobat to convert it to a Word document.
