The town without George Bailey
I'm running macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 and the latest version of Pages, 7.0.1. I duplicated a .pages file to make edits and saved it as a new .pages file in the iCloud Pages folder. I then attempted to export it as a PDF, intending to save the PDF in the Pages folder as well. It wouldn't let me. Saving it to the iCloud desktop and anywhere else in iCloud worked. So I saved it to the iCloud desktop and tried moving it into the Pages folder. No dice. I got the circle-slash indicator on the file as I hovered it over the Pages folder.

I've exported PDFs into the Pages folder before. There were several PDFs in the folder already. So I tried a little experiment. I moved the PDFs out. And now I can't move them back in. Has anyone else had this problem?

Did you ever solve this? I’m having the same issue.
