Apple updated Pages during Macworld 2009 as part of an update to their iWork suite that also included updates to Keynote and Numbers.

The key new feature in Pages is the ability to write in a full screen mode that gets rid of all of the distractions of other windows. Even menu bars and tool bars are hidden until you need them. And full screen mode will also let you work with two pages side-by-side.

Also added is an outlining mode that allows you to drag & drop to rearrange your thoughts. Images and movies will appear in the outline either as thumbnails or actual size.

The ability to do mail merging with Numbers and Address Book was added. Also new is support for EndNote X2 and MathType for people with serious words that need processing.

There is a free 30-day trial of the iWork ’09 office suite.
