Copy text from a Numbers cell into Pages document

Hi,


I want to copy the text from a cell in Numbers into a Pages document, not a text box. Just straight into the normal text; is that possible?


I've tried copying it, but nothing happens when I paste, and the online help seems to be importing tables into Pages or using text boxes, which won't work for me on this.


Many thanks

Sure. Just select the text in the Numbers table cell, not the cell itself, and copy to the clipboard, then paste where you want in Pages as a text string. Copying the cell will result in a pasted table cell in Pages.


Tested: Numbers and Pages v13.1 on macOS Ventura 13.5.2.
