PAGES File
Did your computer fail to open a PAGES file? We explain what they are used for and recommend software that we know can open or otherwise handle your .PAGES files.
What is a PAGES file?
A .PAGES file is a Pages Document file. Files that contain the .pages file extension are files that the Apple Pages software has created. The Apple Pages software application is a word processing and page layout application that Apple developed as a part of the iWork productivity suite.
The files with the .pages file extension are based on the XML file format and can contain various word processing files, including basic text documents and multi-page brochures. The Apple Pages software includes more than 140 pre-built Apple Pages templates to assist in creating files that are saved with the .pages file extension.
