before the most recent MacOs update, when I created a pages doc, I could click Share, then email it in any format (I.e. Word).
now, I have to go: file, export, save as word, open the folder where it's saved, and then email
why is it so hard now, and is there an easier workaround???

See my recent post for an AppleScript/Shortcuts solution that automatically exports a choice of document format and attaches it to a new Mail compose window.

It is harder now because the Pages product team chose to remove the Share menu and functionality of the Send a Copy menu item with Pages v12.2 on Ventura. There is no easier work around. You now need to manually export to Word and then again manually attach that Word document to a newly launched Mail compose window.
You can send constructive feedback criticism to the product team from the application menu. As these are fellow user supported public communities, and the Apple product teams are embargoed from participating here, no why questions can be answered.
still easy to do the PDF email sending, just hit command P for a print dialogue box, then choose "send in mail" from the PDF drop down menu (and make a keyboard shortcut for it in settings).
but the send as a word document, the missing feature described in the original post above... so frustrating that it's gone! i've been using it for years, and with a keyboard shortcut! it saved so many steps, and i didn't have a word document sitting around afterwards that i didn't need!
any ideas for a fix? maybe an automator/shortcuts/extension in the share button menu?
Same here. I miss the possibility to send my pages documents with one click as a PDF via mail. I don't understand why Apple changed this very useful feature.
Sharing Pages doc as a Word doc - why is it so hard now???
