Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Send PDF from Pages via email.

It seems that in the newest version of Pages the option to send a document as a PDF through mail in one step has been eliminated with the new interface.


Can anybody confirm this? Is there a different way to do it? (NOTE: I do realize that I can export to PDF and then share via mail; it was just very convenient to do that all within the Pages itself.)


Thank you

With Pages v12.2.1 on any version of macOS Ventura, all Sharing > Send a Copy functionality has been eliminated. Since we are fellow users and the Apple product teams do not participate in these public user-supported communities, no one can explain the rationale for demoting product functionality.


To automatically convert your Pages document to PDF and attach to an email:


File menu > Print… > PDF : Send in Mail.


All other document conversions must be done manually via File menu > Export To and again, manually attached to an outgoing email, either by drag and drop, or Finder Share > Mail.
