You can also automate creating duplicate versions of the document every time you
save, retaining the name and location of the original, but with the words “Backup of
preceding the lename. See Saving a Backup Version of a Document Automatically on
page 40.
Saving a Backup Version of a Document Automatically
Each time you save a document, you can automatically retain a copy of the last saved
version. That way, if you change your mind about edits you made, you can go back to
(revert to) the backup version of the document.
The best way to create backup versions is dierent, depending upon which version
of Mac OS X youre running. Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion) and later automatically saves a
snapshot of your document every time you save. You can access an archive of all
of the previous saved versions at any time. To learn about accessing and using past
document versions in Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion), see Finding an Archived Version of a
Document” on page 40.
If you’re running Mac OS X v10.6.x (Snow Leopard) or earlier, you can set up Pages to
automatically create a copy of the last saved version of your document. You may also
nd this useful if youre running Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion), and you want to save a backup
version of your document on another hard disk on your network.
To create an archive of previously saved versions of your document on Mac OS X
v10.7 (Lion) or later:
Choose File > “Save a Version,” or press Command-S. m
To create a copy of the last saved version of your document:
Choose Pages > Preferences, click General, and then select “Back up previous version m
when saving.”
The next time you save your document, a backup version is created in the same
location, with “Backup of preceding the lename. Only one version—the last saved
version—is backed up. Every time you save the document, the old backup le is
replaced with the new backup le.
Finding an Archived Version of a Document
If you saved archived versions of your document on Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion) or later,
you can browse the archive to identify any earlier version that you want to restore
or reference. After you identify the archived version that you want, you can restore it
as a fully editable copy, or you can just extract from it any text, images, or document
settings that you want to use again.
To browse archived versions of your document:
1 Open the document for which you want to access older versions, and hold your
pointer over the name of the document at the top of the Pages application window.
