convert .pages to epub

I can't find this in search. I have a Mac and create documents in Mac's Pages app. Is there any way Calibre can convert this format into epub like it does the Docx format?

(Currently I save my pages documents to docx before importing to Calibre, but that means I have to keep track on the Mac of which documents have been converted and make sure they match).

Thanks, I thought this might be a pretty obscure need. I'll just keep using my convert to docx work around. Appreciate everyone's hard work on Calibre!

An extra Save As in docx works best for Open Office or Libra Office compared to odt, which is supported.

Consider migrating to LO Writer on the Mac. I moved to it from MS Word.

Thanks, I have used LO Writer on my old Windows machine. I have been trying to use the Mac supplied apps on my new Mac unless I find a good reason to switch to a non Mac supplied app. I think I'll give LO Writer a try on the Mac.

Just because the programs are from Apple does not mean they are the best choice to do whatever it is they do. Look into other rpograms to see if something else may be better.

Pages is awful so almost anything else is going to be better.

One thing I found is that LO Writer will not automatically underline web addresses unless you use their non docx format (which defeats the whole purpose for me changing). I'm going to look for other alternatives to word and pages.
