Still finding my way about NWP, but I'm hitting a real problem importing Pages documents. I run OSX 10.7.4. I suspect there must be an obvious answer, but so far I haven't found it. Can anyone help?
Thanks

I'm afraid Nisus Writer does not import the Pages file format (.pages), which is a closed proprietary format designed by Apple. You'll have to save/export your document using Pages itself, perhaps saving it as a Microsoft Word (.doc) or RTF document before opening it in Nisus Writer.

Thanks for that explanation. I feared as much. However I have more than a hundred Pages documents to import. Is there a macro that would allow for a one-tap conversion from Pages to RTF and import to Nisus? Or is this impossible?

You'll basically need to work with automating Pages. I'm no expert in such things, but looking around google I found some scripts.

I took one such script from this discussion and saved it as a droplet, which I'm attaching here. Basically you'll want to drag-drop all the ".pages" documents onto the downloaded (and extracted) droplet icon. The script will then process each of those files, converting it to a ".doc", saved with the same file name, in the same folder as the original.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks so much. You've given me two solutions - I'm waiting for the droplet to download, meanwhile I'll try from the Pages side.
