You can export a Pages document to save a copy of it in another format—Microsoft Word, PDF, plain text (TXT), Rich Text Format (RTF), ePub, or Pages '09. Exporting a document is useful when you’re sharing it with others who may use different software from you. Any changes made to the exported document don’t affect the original.
Note: You can’t export page layout documents in plain text or Rich Text Format or in a reflowable ePub layout.
Do one of the following:
If the document is open: Tap 
, then tap Send a Copy.
If the document is closed: Tap 
in the document manager, tap Send a Copy, then tap the document.
Tap a format (Pages, PDF, Word, RTF, or ePub).
For information about the options for ePub, see the task below.
Tap Add to iCloud Drive, or tap one of the other options for sending the document.
Choose a location, or provide the requested information (an email address if you’re sending an email, for example) then send or post the copy.

Do one of the following:
If the document is open: Tap , then tap Send a Copy.
If the document is closed: Tap in the document manager, tap Send a Copy, then tap the document.
Tap ePub, then enter the requested information:
Title and Author: Enter the title and author you want viewers to see on the iBooks Store.
Cover: Use the first page of the document or choose an image file (save the file to iCloud Drive first).
Layout: For a word-processing document, you can choose “Fixed layout” to preserve the layout of the page, or Reflowable so readers can adjust the font size and style (which may change how much content is visible on each page). Page layout documents can use only a fixed layout.
Category and Language: Tap Advanced Options, then assign an iBooks Store category for the ePub and indicate the language of the document.
Embed Fonts: Tap Advanced Options, then select the checkbox if you want to include TrueType and OpenType fonts in your ePub.

Note: If you set a password, it protects only your exported copy, not the original file. To set a password for the original document, see Password-protect a document. If the original file already has a password, it applies to the exported file as well.
If you’re sending the document to someone else, you can also select a different format when you send it. See Send a copy for more information.
