Copy and paste text in Pages on Mac

  1. Go to the Pages app on your Mac.

  2. Open a document, then select text you want to copy.

  3. Choose Edit > Copy (from the Edit menu at the top of your screen), or press Command-C.

    Note: If you want to remove the text from its original location, choose Edit > Cut instead.

  4. Click where you want the text to appear, then do one of the following:

    • Paste the text with its current formatting into a new paragraph: Choose Edit > Paste, or press Command-V on the keyboard.

    • Paste and match the style of the text where you’re pasting: Choose Edit > Paste and Match Style.

You can also copy and paste objects like shapes, text boxes and images.
