Re: Word on iPad


My son turned me on to CloudOn.  So far seems to work very well with  the 
iPad and Word as well as other apps.  The only hitch is that you need  either 
a cellular or network connection.  If you're out in the boonies or  in a 
plane with no internet it's useless.  Oh...and it's free.  All  you need is 
some cloud account and most are free as well.

I had  read that Word and iPad didn't work together very well, so I hadn't 
tried to  find out anymore after I received my iPad for Christmas. But 
here's a link to  the Apple help site that addresses the issue:

After  the snow situation has calmed down, I'll go up to the Apple store in 
Boston  and get expert advice from them.

I've recently become a multi-platform garden  writer.   I've been writing 
my 
column in MS Word for eons  and even though I now work on a  Windows 
desktop 
and Apple MacBook  Pro I'm able to move my Word docs around with  ease and 
archive them  in Dropbox.

But I've just added a keyboard to my iPad (Logiteck  Untrathin  is very 
cool) and now I'd like to be able to compose my  column or  other documents 
on 
the iPad since its really easy to  travel with or take out  into the field.

Just wondering if anyone  does this and what software or app  you use as a 
word processor that  can then be moved over to Word.  I don't  need 
anything 
that's  feature rich as the only formatting I do is paragraph  style, 
margins  
and line spacing.

So...anyone conquered this  yet?

Thanks

Andrew
