Michael E. Cohen is doing something a little different with his newest book, Take Control of Pages. He explains the “pre-book†in theory and practice, and why Pages is the perfect example of a book that benefits from this treatment. Michael also reveals a critical tip for anyone making the transition and is concerned about losing formatting when moving between Mac and iOS versions, takes a 10,000-foot view of the program, Apple’s logic in their approach to Pages, and much more.
