Pages automatically detects valid web addresses (URLs) and email addresses and styles them (for example, with an underline or different color) to indicate that they’re active links. Phone numbers aren’t formatted as links by default, but you can turn on automatic formatting for phone numbers. You can also turn off automatic link formatting for URLs and email addresses.
To change whether or not Pages formats website URLs, email addresses, and phone numbers as active links, you can update the settings for automatic formatting.
Go to the Pages app
on your Mac.
Open a document, then choose Pages > Settings (from the Pages menu at the top of your screen).
Click Auto-Correction at the top of the settings window.
In the Formatting section, do any of the following:
Website URLs and email addresses: Select or deselect the “Automatically add links to webpages and emails” checkbox.
Phone numbers: Select or deselect the “Automatically add links to phone numbers” checkbox.
If you don’t want links to show formatting but you still want them to be active, select “Automatically add links to webpages and emails” or “Automatically add links to phone numbers” and deselect “Automatically apply link style.”
The setting applies to new text that you enter in all Pages documents. Existing links aren’t affected by the change.
