Avery templates for Apple pages

Is there any way I can download a template for for Avery labels J8159 (24 to a page)? Avery UK say they only support this for Microsoft. Makes one wonder if this company is even aware Apple exists.

iMac, OS X 10.11

Avery in the U.S. does provide selected blank templates in Pages document format. You can open the

UK J8159 Word form in Pages, and then save it as a Pages template. A search on the Avery U.S. site does not reveal a J8159 form.

Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately Microsoft word does not allow any actions whatsoever (e.g. to save to pages) unless one is subscribed to Microsoft 365. Since they brought in this subscription service I have chosen not to pay good money for a service I have no need for 99.9% of the time. Maybe I'll take their 365 free month's trial when when I'm ready to print out, or wait for Avery to get their act together.

Open the Avery template that is for Word directly with Pages. It will automatically translate it into Pages document format, and from there, you can use File menu : Save as Template…, and then reuse it in Pages as a Pages template.

Yes, thank you. It works perfectly with those sheets made available to Apple pages ( such as J8160) but sadly J8159 is not one of them. Seems I'll just have to ditch my J8159 sheets. They are clearly a poor relation in Avery's eyes.

But I do hope you have a Happy (safe) New Year — in spite of Avery. 😎
