I saved a .pdf doc in Pages. It shows up in my documents, but it will not highlight and I cannot open. How do I open/access this doc?

You cannot save a PDF document with Pages v5.5.3. You can however, export a Pages document to PDF, and that will open with Preview and Adobe Reader.


You cannot open a PDF using the file chooser in Pages. You double-click on the PDF in the Finder, and most likely Preview will open it unless you have set your default viewer to Adobe Reader.
