    Hello,
a quick answer as I just see your emails ...

My question was Can libre office read pages/appleworks/clarissworks? Thanks. Turquoisegrece


    In fact, in some near future, 
a filter for Appleworks/Clarisworks text (word processing) files might be included in LibreOffice
based on libmwaw ( http://sourceforge.net/p/libmwaw/wiki/Home/ ), see for instance 
http://docs.libreoffice.org/ .
It will not be perfect but it may retrieve the text, most graphics, tables, text-boxes, basic 
layout, ... .

    For Pages and for other kinds of Appleworks/Clarisworks documents (spreadsheet, database, 
...), I do not know.

    Note: 
if you have a Mac with OSX >= 10.6, you can find in http://sourceforge.net/projects/libmwaw/files/ 
a compiled version
of libmwaw and mwaw2odt with a <<crude>> AppleScript interface: mwawOSX.zip, it takes a supported 
format file
( and so Appleworks/ClarisWorks files ) and converts it in a .odt files ... Let me know if you try 
it and find some bugs...

  Amicalement,
    Laurent.
