Documents To Go Professional

NOTE The Palm Software Installation CD includes the Documents To Go® desktop software. On your smartphone, the companion for Documents To Go is named Documents and it’s already installed on your smartphone.

With the Documents application, you can take your important office info with you. You can carry, create, view, and edit Microsoft Word and Excel files directly on your smartphone. You can also view, carry, and manage PowerPoint and PDF files. For example, you can open email attachments, files you download with the web browser, and files stored on an expansion card—as long as the files are in a supported format.

If you install the Documents To Go desktop software (from the Palm Software Installation CD), you can use Documents To Go to transfer files from your computer to your smartphone when you synchronize.

Here are a few more examples of what you can do with Documents:

•Send and receive email attachments in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Acrobat file formats (DOC, XLS, PPT, and PDF).

•View Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Acrobat files (DOC, XLS, PPT, and PDF).

•Create or edit a Word-compatible document or Excel-compatible spreadsheet on your smartphone, and then save it in the native DOC or XLS format.

•Create a PowerPoint presentation on your computer, use the Documents To Go desktop application to optimize the file for your smartphone, and then sync the file onto your smartphone to view it on the go.

NOTE The Documents application does not support some editing functions, such as multiple font sizes and spell checking.
