Tracking Changes in Pages with a Word Doc

Before I go off, bite the bullet, and purchase Office for Mac, I still am hoping I won't have to. Can I open a Word doc on Pages, edit and track changes, then convert back to Word so colleague can accept changes? Does anybody have experience using the latest version of Pages? Many thanks.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

Hi JoryBu,


Here is part of a Pages document with Edit > Track Changes turned on. I deleted a word and added a word.


User uploaded file


Exported to Word then reopened in Pages, the tracking is still there. On the Tracking Bar below the Format Bar, I had to click on the View Markup button and choose the View Markup option to see the deletions.


Page 70 of the Pages User Guide explains tracking changes. The Guide is available for download from the Help Menu in Pages.


Regards,

Ian.
