Exporting Pages documents

Since this morning, export of Pages document as Word or pdf format is not working in my iPad. All exports go only as image documents. Why this sudden problem and what is the remedy?

I have Pages v13.2 for iPadOS installed on iPadOS 16.7.4. I have no issue exporting Word or PDF documents from the application. If I want an image(s) of that Pages document page(s), I have to deliberately ask for it in the export panel.


Others have reported this issue, so it is not confined to you, but I cannot reproduce it here on my iPhone or iPad with current software.

It seems to be an IOS issue. I’m running 17.3 on an iPAd Pro. Tested the Pages to Word export on my MacBook Air, latest Mac OS, and it works as expected. IOS Pages seems to export to RTF correctly on the iPAd and for the time being is work around to share and get the docuemnt into pages. Opening a Word document create on Mac OS Pages, in IOS Pages seems to work. I don’t think it’s a MS problem with Word. Hopefully Apple can get this fixed asap. Real pain for us IOS users.
