Chapter 1: Starting Out with iWork ’09
✓ Page layout documents, which have the type of structure you see in
newspapers and magazines — articles don’t just flow one after the
other. Instead, an article on page one may be continued on page four
while another article on page one may be continued on page eight. Also,
objects such as photos are often placed in a specific position on a page,
and they don’t move as text is added or deleted.
iWork provides you with a variety of sophisticated tools to create your Pages
documents. These include advanced font handling, color, tables, and charts,
as well as the ability to place QuickTime movies and hypertext links in your
Pages documents. Of course, printed versions of those documents won’t
support QuickTime movies or hypertext links, but they will be active when
you look at the document on a computer screen. Or on your iPhone.
Apple starts you off with a variety of templates for various documents.
Figure 1-1 shows you the templates available for newsletters in the Page
Layout set of templates.
