Everyone I know dislikes Pages and dismisses it as an over-basic Word Processing app. This is completely wrong. We use it for the creation of complex 100+ page books, brochures and other documents, collaborated on by people in multiple countries with a deep feature set rivalling all the most popular DTP apps. It’s truly incredible and there’s nothing to compete with it’s powerful combination of graphics, word processing, layout, collaboration and other tools. Affinity Publisher is great but no collaboration. Word is great but no graphics and horrible interface, and so on. But there’s a major design flaw which is the cause of Pages’ poor ratings: When you open the app, it’s stuck in basic WP mode. To change it to DTP mode you have to dig deep into menus and go to Document Options/Document Setup/ and then switch off “Document Body”. It’s the most idiot, poorly described menu option I’ve ever seen! NOW you’ve switched from basic WP to a mega-advanced collaborative DTP app. So many features are there but not obvious because of Apple’s (beautiful) ways of replacing thousands of complex menus with touch-based or contextual menu-based options. APPLE: DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR: WHEN THIS APP OPENS, HAVE A BIG SWITCH ‘DTP OR WP’.
