You shouldn't lose anything by opening the Word document in Pages, but why not reopen the original Pages document to get rid of the page skips? Inserting a section break always puts you on a new page. To avoid this, use a Layout Break instead. > 2. Are there any tips in spell-checking in pages, IE. useful commands etc?

To change the font, select the whole document (Cmd-a) then press Cmd-t and choose your font, including its size. Press Cmd-t again to hide the fonts, and press an arrow key to unhighlight everything again. Check that you have the correct font and size with VO-t. You can create your own template with whatever font and layout you like and set it to be your default template. This is done in Pages Preferences, General, and click the Use template button. A dialogue will open where you can choose your template. > Is there useful podcasts on pages? Not as far as I know.
