At first I was very excited by Pages ability to open my .doc files and find they looked perfect. Alas I was quickly dissappointed when I received a .rtf file with complex columns and headings set up and tried to open it with Pages. Though it opened OK, every column was a new page and the column headings were nowhere to be found... Word opened this file beautifully! Also, I can't help but wonder why the iWork applications seem to be an order of magnitude larger then the Microsoft equivelents? (i.e. the Word app is 19.5MB while Pages is 265 MB ... that's the same size as my entire Office folder!) I wonder if this is due to Apple needing to support both the PPC and Intel machines? I would love nothing more than to trash my Office 2004 software, so I'd love to hear any insight anyone may have!
Thanks,
