Use EndNote and MathType

Pages works with EndNote, a program for creating bibliographies and managing citations. To take advantage of these features, you must have EndNote X6 or later installed, and you must have assigned, in EndNote, a default library to open when EndNote is opened.

Note: If you downloaded Pages from the Mac App Store, you may need to install the Pages EndNote Plug-In v2.0.

If you have MathType 6.7d or later installed, you can use it to include mathematical expressions and equations in your document.

Add a citation

If you have the EndNote plug-in, you can use EndNote to add a citation. Citations are added to an automatically updating bibliography at the end of the document.

  1. Click where you want the citation to appear.

    To group the citation with another one, place the insertion point just in front of, or just after, the existing citation.

  2. Click Insert in the toolbar, then choose EndNote Citation.

    EndNote opens, and the Find window appears.

  3. Enter text in the Find Citation field, then press Return to search your EndNote library for corresponding citations.

  4. Select options using the controls in the Find EndNote Citations window to define how the citation appears in your document.

    If you want the citation to appear only in the bibliography and not in the document, select “In Bibliography only.”

  5. Select a citation from the list and enter a page range (if needed), then click Insert.

    The citation is added to your document at the insertion point. If you didn’t select “In Bibliography only,” a bibliography field is added at the end of your document.

Choose a bibliography format

If you have the EndNote plug-in, you can use EndNote to add an automatically updating bibliography to the end of your document.

  1. Open EndNote, then choose Edit > Output Styles > Open Style Manager (from the Edit menu at the top of your computer screen).

  2. Choose the styles you want to appear as format options in Pages.

    You can create your own styles by choosing Edit > Output Styles > New Style.

  3. In Pages, choose Edit > EndNote Citations > Bibliography Format, then choose a format.

If you copy a citation’s reference from the body text of a document then paste the citation into a document (the same or a different document), the citation is added and a bibliography field is added to the end of the document.

Use MathType to add mathematical expressions and equations

Pages requires MathType 6.7d or later.

  1. Click where you want the equation to appear.

  2. Click Insert in the toolbar, then choose MathType Equation.

  3. Type or paste your equation in the field provided.

    See MathType Help for instructions on using the MathType tools.

  4. To save your equation, choose File > Close and Return to Pages (from the File menu at the top of your computer screen), then click Yes in the window that appears.

    The equation appears at the insertion point in your document. To edit the equation, double-click it to open MathType again.
