No. Pages accepts a variety of image files that are also compatible with Preview and single-page PDF documents. You cannot marsupial other documents within it, and your remaining option is to copy/paste their content into Pages as original content.

Can you elaborate?

What do you mean by "a file which contains several documents"?


If they are Pages files, each file contains a single Pages document, and saving a Pages document creates a single Pages file.


My response at this point would be "No," or "Not that I'm aware of."


Pages accepts insertion of a limited range of file types, Most, if not all of these are image files.

I was considering using Pages to help create a project flow chart or critical path which would continue to evolve over the length of the project (many years and many directions). Doing some quick layouts and knowing the amount of documentation that could be related to the project a thought occurred wondering; (1) Could I link individual documents at key points to either review or confirm disbursed without having to reference the document(s) outside the Page document, (2) If I had several documents occurring at this specific point could I link each document to review if necessary or place them in a separate folder showing up on the Pages document)? (I don't want to visually see the document(s) at all times, just a visible link or folder containing many related documents) I know the next question is would the Pages document be for one individual or to be possibly shared with the team associated with the project (possibly both). Any comments on the above would be of help. I am not a computer expert but have become more appreciative of Pages gravitating away from Word. I guess in a nut shell I wanted to created a command center from Pages having possibly everything at my finger tips in one document.
