Here is another way.

1.  In the pages program on your mac, click on File, then Export to followed by Word

2.  On the Word” tab. Click on “Advanced Options" and on the format bar, click on .docx (if using any word version 2007 to present, or .doc if earlier version.

3.  On Save as, give the file a name, and location (desktop or flash drive) and click on export.

You can now take that file to any PC that has Word and open.

    THIS DOES NOT WORK.

    HERE IS WHAT WORKS

    • GoTo your Google Docs Account (or set one up for free if you don't already have one)
    • Upload the Zip file or the pages file(s) to your Google Account
    • Open the Pages file(s) in the Google Docs environment
    • The pages document is now visable
    • Print the document (this will convert the pages / docs document to a PDF)
    • You can (1) print the document (2) save the PDF version to your desktop for future use without Google docs.

    EASY!!!

    This did not work for me.  When I upload the document (in either a .pages or .zip format) into my newly created googledocs account, it is unable to generate a preview of the document and also therefore unable to print it.  Deven's suggestion did not work either, that just gives a bunch of contents in a folder, none of which want to open.  Maybe I'm missing the technology boat???  Is there really no easy way to convert .pages to .doc???

    THANK YOU!  I downloaded a free file viewer that did not work, but when I saved the .pages file  as a .zip file and then opened it, it worked like a charm!!!
