Does Pages index/preview .docx files?

I know it reads not saves docx, but does it support index (spotlight) and preview (quicklook) it?

Also what about xlsx/pptx? I assume it's same pattern?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Preview/QuickLook is a function of the OS, not Pages or Numbers or Keynote. Spotlight is also not part of the iWork apps. And, yes, you can QuickLook Office x files & Spotlight should index them.
