how can you transfer documents from a pc to a mac?

A possibility is to cut and paste the documents into another program on your PC (MS Word, MS Word pad), a mac will open virtually any Microsoft document.

If Mac and laptop are related in a community at the same time - acquire Filezilla FTP Server and deploy on laptop .. configure filezilla - Mac logs on and downloads the document promptly off the community.. no ought to install drivers or something.. or you ought to use a USB Flash force.. MP3 participant if it has USB.. some Mp3 gamers have USB and makes use of a flash force for storage.. burn to CD or DVD and shipment it from CD/DVD.. Use ethernet for FTP.. connect the two at the same time via a on the spot router.. no longer something to configure.. merely placed a ethernet cable into the router.. connect.. configure FTP server.. acquire what you choose... Use CD/DVD.. - Burn it onto a CD/DVD and shipment it promptly onto the MAC... basically some a thank you to do it.. p.c.. which one is extra convenient or extra suitable :)

Download Open Office for mac. It's free and should open those documents.

I'm not 100% positive, but I believe that Pages does not read WordPerfect files.

You could download OpenOffice and give it a go. I have had some success using it to open WP files.

you need Bootcamp or Parallels to run Windows on the Mac.
