Convert Pages to Word on Windows without a Mac

Someone sent you an Apple Pages document, but you need a Word .docx copy on a Windows PC. Renaming the extension does not convert the document. Open the original .pages file, inspect it, then create a Word export.

Preview the .pages file online first

Free, in your browser, nothing is uploaded. Shows the preview picture saved inside the file (usually the first page), the pictures it contains and a list of its contents. It does not convert to Word; for a .docx copy, use the Windows app described below.

Preview before making a Word copy

Key, Pages & Numbers File Opener reads Pages documents on your PC without a Mac, Apple ID or upload. Viewing and text copying are free. Saving a Word document is a Pro feature, separate from viewing.

Open the file with the app

Install Key, Pages & Numbers File Opener from Microsoft Store.
Double-click the .pages file or drag it into the app. If it was saved as a folder package on a Mac, drag the whole folder in.
Browse the pages, zoom and read any notice about differences from the original.
Choose the Word saving option (Pro) and save a .docx copy to a location you choose.
Check the exported text and tables, and inspect any important layout details before sharing the copy.

What is free?

Open .pages documents, including supported folder packages.
View pages, zoom, navigate, and select or copy text.
Read the file offline without an Apple ID or upload.

Save and export with Pro

Pro is a one-time purchase with no subscription. Check the Microsoft Store purchase screen for the current price.

Save Pages as Word (.docx). Text, tables and cell values carry over; some shapes, charts and colors may be missing.
Save PDF with all or selected pages, save pages as PNG and print.
Convert multiple files to PDF in one batch.

Limits and things that may be missing

Some shapes, charts and colors may be missing from the Word copy. Conversion does not promise an identical layout.
The app does not edit iWork documents or save changes back as .pages.
Password-protected files cannot be opened. Ask the sender to remove the password or provide a PDF.
If the file cannot be converted and contains a first-page preview, the app may show that picture with a notice. A preview picture is not a complete Word conversion.

Tested Pages files range from iWork '09 to 2025. Keep the original .pages file and review the .docx copy before using it as the working document.
