How to collaborate on and share documents (and even password protect them)
YOU’LL NEED
macOS 13 or later, Pages
Documents are often made for sharing. This is certainly true if you’re knocking out a report for work or writing an article for a top-notch magazine such as this one. It’s why Apple makes it easy to allow others to access your documents in Pages.
Whether you want to collaborate on a document in real time, allowing other people to make changes whenever they wish, or wish to finish your work and share the end result, Pages has you covered. You can also password-protect a document so that unwanted eyes can’t catch a glimpse.
Here we’re going to walk you through your various options – all of which are on top of the more traditional method of simply saving a document on your Mac before finding and attaching it to an email! In doing so, we’ll also explore the different file formats you can use and how this may affect the way you approach your work. As you’ll see, Pages is flexible and can easily fit into any professional workflow. David Crookes
