Batch convert Apple Pages files to Microsoft Word doc files

How can I convert a large number of Pages and Numbers files into corresponding MS Office format in a quick manner.


iWork Converter can batch convert Pages files to doc without script. Also can convert Numbers files to xls.

You could also use Automator and some third-party actions such as:

...to make a droplet or service to do the job.

For example:

Open Automator from your Applications folder Make a new Application (File>New>Application)

Next, assuming you have the actions mentioned above, drag in the following actions from the Pages library (in the left hand column):

  • Open Document(s)
  • Export as PDF (remembering to select "All Documents" from the drop down
  • Close Document(s)(again, remembering to select "All Documents" from the drop down

It should look something like this:

Save your Automator app somewhere you can get to it easily (e.g. your Desktop) and simply drop Pages documents onto it as and when you need to.
