Have you ever received a Pages document with in-line photos, charts or other images that you wanted to save?

The dilemma: When you try to drag images out of Pages, it won’t let you. Nor will it allow you to copy and paste the image anywhere.

The fix:

  1. Click the image you want to save in the document to select it
  2. Go to the Inspector (the blue circular “i” icon in the top right part of the Pages document window)
  3. In the Inspector window, click the Ruler icon (which indicates Metrics) and you will see the image name in the File Info box
  4. Select the small icon to the left of the file name and drag it to wherever you would like to save it

Note: It’s a great idea to get to know the Inspector tool well, because Apple has integrated it into multiple apps (among them, Keynote, Numbers and iWeb) for superior ease of use!
