Q: numbers text to rtf or pages (without formatting)
i have a very comprehensive list of items in two columns that i would like to move to a pages or rtf document.
i have removed the cell colors and the outlines and seem to have been able to paste it into a rtf document which appears to behave a strictly text document (no spreadsheet cell in there). however, when i try to do this in pages so i can insert to start a new page so i can format the document it appears that this behaves as a copied numbers cell/spreadsheet.
is there a way to convert it to a text document?
none of the export options in numbers seemed to do the trick.
THANKS

I've just answered almost exactly the same question that was called 'Can I extract text from a Numbers document?' by another method.
Try pasting the information into a Text Box within Pages. It should appear there without formatting and from there select it all again and try pasting anywhere else. You can then delete the Text Box... it is only needed to replace the steps I described earlier going via TextEdit.
