I'm so tired of repeating myself, but I use Pages all the time in my capacity as a professional translator. Any tables I find in a document I copy into Numbers so that I keep the formatting correct. I manipulate the table in Numbers, then copy it back into Pages. It doesn't take long and works fine. Like any decent office suite, iWork takes time to learn and people just haven't got the patience. Yes, there are problems with the iWork suite. A group of VO commands doesn't function such as looking for next colour change so I compensate for this by using TextEdit to read my source document, but I have no trouble formatting in Pages. I do think it's about time Apple brought out a new version of iWork. The current one is 3 years old and I'm afraid when they do, it's going to be more like the IOS version but I'll just have to wait and see. Anyway, to finish with iWork for the Mac, Keynote is also perfectly manageable for a totally blind person.
