Please, Please Help! Common App/Essay Problem!

<p>Okay so I have a macbook and all my text documents are saved as .pages and Common App does not recognize this file, therefore I can't upload any of my essays!!!</p>

<p>What should I do!?</p>

<p>do you have word for mac?</p>

<p>if not, you have text edit, you can copy/paste your essays from pages into text edit, save them, and I'm sure it saves them as a file that will work</p>

<p>thanks, that worked..</p>

<p>Only thing is it has this REALLY ugly font that won't change.. grr....</p>

<p>Im sure you can change the font!!</p>

<p>I've been trying and even changed the default font (to Lucida Grande) and it shows up as being saved in that font, but when I view the doc on common app it's this really ugly typewriter/blocky font.. Is this normal for everyone on common app?</p>

<p>File>Export>Word</p>

<p>Word.</p>

<p>yay you're so smart! thanks!</p>
