Compare Pages Documents in Kaleidoscope
Need to compare two versions of a Pages document? We previously provided a solution based on Shortcuts, but recent updates to Pages (version 14.4 at the time of writing) have rendered that workflow unusable. Specifically, the AppleScript command Pages offers to export unformatted text—an essential part of our shortcut—no longer produces any text output.
They have a workaround that uses more steps to send the data to Kaleidoscope’s share extension. But this is emblematic of how AppleScript support continues to break or work worse than it used to. Apple’s official position is that AppleScript isn’t the future, but they have nothing that’s close to being able to replace it.
