Convert PAGES to PDF

A Pages document has to be shared with people who are not on Apple hardware, and it only needs to be read.

    What actually changes

    PAGES and PDF are not the same picture in two wrappers.

    The document is rendered to fixed PDF pages with fonts embedded, so the layout survives on machines that have neither Pages nor the fonts it used.

    Worth knowing first

    Pages documents lean heavily on Apple's system fonts, and layouts built with them shift when those fonts are unavailable. Embedding into a PDF is precisely what prevents that, which makes PDF a safer delivery format than DOCX here.

    Questions

    PAGES to PDF, answered

    Is PDF or DOCX the better target?

    PDF if the recipient only needs to read it. DOCX if they need to edit, accepting some layout drift.

    Do comments carry over?

    No. Pages comments are not exported into the PDF page content.
