It says “Open in ” but I’ve never been able to get that to work, even when I have a browser open that’s logged in to the iCloud service. The first thing to know is that you can be lulled into a false sense of confidence about the process by right-clicking on one of the Pages files, as I show here with “melinda.pages” on my own Windows 10 system: It’s a bit of work, but it’s most assuredly doable, and after you’ve done it once or twice, you’ll find that it’s quite quick to log in to your iCloud account, upload the Pages files, then re-download them, converted into Microsoft Word. Well, there’s no “easy” way to do this as the programs use relatively incompatible file formats, and there’s no app or program for the Windows side that lets you read Pages documents, but don’t give up hope: turns out that Apple’s done a boffo job of reproducing the functionality of its Office apps (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) within a Web browser and that you can sign up and use these apps through Apple’s iCloud service for free.
