FAMILY HISTORY FORMATS

I am writing a family history on Pages but somehow did both a word processing format and a pdf document format. I need to combine the best of both formats into one if possible. I am having trouble moving text and photos around in both formats at times. One format is 60 pages and the other pdf format is 90 pages-both covering most of the same data. HELP! My Mac desktop is 7 years old.

iMac Line (2012 and Later)

pdf format is pretty useless for anything other than reading or printing. I don't think you have a lot of choice other than editing your word processing doc to incorporate whatever is not included in it already, via copy/paste or new typing.


If you have specific problems with your word processing doc, provide details, plus the version number of Pages which you are using.
