Accessibility of office applications is one of the very things holding me
from buying an apple device at the moment.

When the mini iPad comes in with iOS 6, that'll be the first thing I'm going
to check out.

The renaming and the fact that Pages still doesn't allow one to organize
files in folders are two of the main reasons I avoid using it.  

I truly do not understand why Apple has not improved pages for accessibility
and added folders.  They have done such a fabulous job in most other places.

No, there is only one way to rename documents, and it is complicated. I
rename on my computer.

Hello,

Now this is the current holly grail for an app that is accessible. There are
quite a few apps which will let you view MS Word format files. There are a
few which will let you edit such files. The only one I have found that is
even somewhat accessible is Pages. I find Pages to be decently accessible
when I use my braille display. Others have reported that Pages does not
track properly when there is more than one page of text in the document when
using a bluetooth QWERTY keyboard. I am unable to comment as I do not use
such a keyboard.

Again, with my braille display using cursor routing buttons, I am able to
properly edit even multi-paged documents with Pages.

Hello all,

I recently downloaded Microsoft Sky drive on the iPhone and wanted to edit
one of the files in my account.  The app attempted to find a compatible app
on my phone that would edit the document, and that leads me to this
question: 

What apps, can you suggest that will edit a word document on the iPhone?  I
like reading and making minor edits as I go, and Plaintext just does not
pass muster for me.  I also don't want to keep opening my laptop all the
time.  

Thanks much.

K. W.
