[Closed] Trying to open a "Pages" document in OpenOffice.org

I have a "Pages" document that I would like to open in Open Office. It asks me for a "filter", and I have tried several, but none of them work. There is none that mentions "Pages". Is it not possible to open it in Open Office, or will I need to purchase Pages from the Apple Store? I have an iMac OS X 10.7.2 and open office 3.3

What makes you think that OpenOffice.org can handle that file format?

Nope. More anti Apple FUD.

Pages can export as PDF, doc, RTF, and txt. When I want to send a document to someone I export it as a PDF. I always do the same with documents created in OOo.

I was waiting for this reply!
So I lock the thread, no need to go in another hot discussion about Apple pros and cons.
