Using Pages in iWork and enjoy its lightness and comprehensiveness. Very responsive and ease of use. The comments bar for making n…Read moreotes to text in progress is a great aid and very clear: just what an Apple Mac needs - at last a great word processing program. Still a few minor things to extend the app, the menu bar could do with a more polished aesthetic - better cosmetics: but all in all a great move away from Word. No problem experienced at all, with documents import/exported to Word, PDF, or PC app or platform. The family pack of 5 is great value. Works with boxes and has great DTP capabilities for image/text/design etc: it is hefty competition for a lot of other packages, one I can only recommend.

Its good to Share
Written by MH from Ashford

I must say that the sheer ability to share numbers, pages and keynote documents with a number of people at the same time is somewh…Read moreat special. The formatting of the documents are retained and the ability to let people comment and then download whatever version you specify is a real treat. Well done apple for this piece of '09. However, not all greatness, the ability to share the same document formatting into the (sadly true) common .doc file type is virtually non existent, even when using cross platform settings such as same fonts and text alignment and tables. For this reason I have to go from a potential 4 stars to 3.

Great Product
Written by DS from Rochdale
06-Jan-2009
Great update to the previous version. Now includes additions such as the ability to undelete actions at last! You can now send doc…Read moreuments directly into e-mails as PDF / Word / Excel formats and also publish documents to iWork for others to add notes and also to download. Pages now includes mail merge with numbers, a great full screen view and lots of other additions which makes it more intuitive to use. Numbers at last gives the average user much easy ways of adding formulas and table categories to spreadsheets.
As an average user who uses the software for home and small business, it does everything that i need and now with the easier ways of sharing documents in the mainstream formats i can completely ditch office for mac.(217 of 232 people found this review useful)
