Hi Guys
Ive been sent some .doc files created in ms word that have headers and footers.
When i open in pages to edit pages only displays the body of the document?!
Am I missing something or is this another failure on pages 5?
I've got pages 5.6.2
Thanks

No.

Probably. Just add it to the rather large pile in the corner.

Pages is not a Word clone, and Apple makes no guarantee that the translation process from Word to Pages internal document format, or the export (another translation) back to Word, will occur correctly.
If you can see the Word document headers/footers in Preview, but not in Pages, then check that on your Document panel, that the header/footer are checked. If they are, then just cut to the chase, stop using Pages v5.6.2, and download the free LibreOffice Suite. It is far more compatible with Word documents than Pages. The LibreOffice user guides were written with LibreOffice Writer.
Opening a word doc in pages loses headers?
