Q: I lost my installation CDs for pages 08.  Way to save an installation copy to USB?

I have iwork 08 (pages, numbers, presentation) and during a move I believe the original CDs were lost.

 

I still have the programs on my imac but I'm concerned about not having a backup copy beyond what's on my time capsule.

 

I tried copying just the "pages" from "application" to a USB thumb drive but when I did a test installation it told me that not all the files were there to install it.

 

Is there any way that I can save a backup installation copy to USB just in case?  I'd like to avoid having to pay for the software again.

 

Makes me wonder if this is backed up to time capsule, and a new computer/new format, whether time capsule would be able to re-install pages on a new system.  Different question, unimportant at this time, just curious.

 

Thanks.
