- If you use Microsoft Word on your Mac, you can save the documents you create and open them in Pages, Apple’s word processor. It’s a handy feature to use in case you can’t access Microsoft.
- While Pages for Mac can open.docx and.doc files, Microsoft Word doesn’t recognise.pages files, making opening and editing.pages files on Windows a tough job.
