The transition of Page Creator pages to Google Sites will happen automatically. From now until this transition begins on June 1, 2009, Page Creator users who don't want to be moved to Google Sites have the option to download their content, host it on another service, and redirect their existing Page Creator URLs. These options are available via the 'Learn more' link at the top of your Site Manager in Page Creator.
