Helen Brown Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 So would we! If you check the Blog today you will see our response to the issue: Pages simply does not accept the footnote code that works in all the other word processors. We'll keep trying.

Joe Weaks Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I just wanted to add that the inadequacy here lies with Apple. The new citation function in Accordance is placing "industry standard" rich-text encoding onto the clipboard. Word reads it, Open Office reads it, etc. but Pages does not accept the "footnote" rich-text tag. It really is a shame. One can write a small script for use in Pages, that once you've pasted in the body text, would pull the footnote reference off the clipboard, create a new footnote, and then paste the reference text into it.

Joe Weaks Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I have a AccordanceCitationPagesPaster script now working for pasting citations with footnotes into Pages. Email me if you want to test it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William B Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I would love to see this too, I use Pages not office (nor will I ever use office!) so this would be awesome, shame there are some problems with it but hopefully a way around it will be found. If I need to is this possible - to add the citations to open office then copy and paste along to pages (the bibliography) as those thing can be a nightmare to right.

Joe Weaks Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I suppose I should mention it in here in the Feature Request forum. I have posted the solution for using Footnote Citations in Pages. You can find the Accordance to Pages Citation Paster announced in this forum post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
