Hey that is great. I didn't know that Writer has RTF support. I already have this app, had forgotten about it. Now I will definitely try it. And maybe become an esteemed writer too. :) From E.T.'s Keyboard... ancient.ali...@icloud.com Many believe that we have been visited in the past. Wh

Hey ET, Yes, that is the developer. I also found another possible solution. I just downloaded Voice Dream Writer. I never really thought about it, because I don’t need that kind of writing support, but it does open and edit RTF files. It also has an option to export to Word, though it says it’

I was surprised by that too. The name of the app is text editor. It’s $.99. Pretty simple, but it does let you read an edit. Cheers, Donna Sent from my iPhone > On Dec 23, 2019, at 10:50 AM, 'E.T.' via MacVisionaries > wrote: > >  You made progress. What is the exact name of the paid app?

Hi, ET, I download it yesterday. I found two apps with similar names, one was free, and one was $.99. I downloaded them both. The free version seemed to show a lot of the text coding, so I didn’t really care for that. The $.99 version seems to give me a nice view of my RTF document and it looks

Hi Gabe, Thank you for the suggestion. What I’m trying to avoid is having to export the file back-and-forth between pages and word multiple times. I switch back-and-forth frequently between Mac iPad and PC, so I’m trying to minimize the number of times I have to convert the file to one from one

Hi Donna, I've never tried exporting a file from my phone but in Pages on the Mac you can export a file to many different formats including MS Word. This is what I use any time I'm going to need to work on a file using a computer or other device that supports Word files but not Pages. I know it

There is not a stand alone version of MS Word for iOS. The only way to use it is to sign-in with a paid Office365 account UserID and password. Access to the iOS apps is part of the subscription package. HTH - Brad - On Dec 22, 2019, at 14:37, 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries wrote: Hi a
