See Format a document for another language. To create a document with the formatting of a different language: Choose the language from the pop-up menu in the bottom-left corner of the template chooser, then choose a template. Books in EPUB format can be opened in Apple Books and other ebook readers. To create an interactive book: Choose a book template. The choices include a variety of word-processing and page layout templates. To create a brochure, poster, or something with a more complex layout: Choose a template that looks closest to what you want to create. To create a document that’s mainly text: Choose one of the Basic templates (these are all word-processing templates). In the template chooser, scroll to find a template for the type of document (or envelope) you want to create, then double-click the template to open it. Open Pages and click the New Document button in the dialog, or choose File > New from the Pages menu at the top of the screen. You can, however, convert the document from word processing to page layout, and vice versa. After you begin creating your document, you can’t switch to a different template. The Tab Flyer, Museum Brochure, and book templates in landscape orientation are for page layout. For example, the Essay and School Newsletter templates, and book templates in portrait orientation, are for word processing. Pages templates are designed either for word processing or for page layout. Every time you create a new document, you choose a template from the template chooser (shown below) as a starting point.Īfter you open a template, you can add your own text, replace placeholder graphics or delete them, and add new objects (tables, charts, text boxes, shapes, lines, and media). Placeholders give you an idea of what a document created with this template might look like when you use its text and object styles.
