Here's what Office looks like on an iPad. You'll notice there's Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
Word looks almost exactly like what it looks like on a PC, just more compact. You can apply complex formats to your documents and text, such as highlighting, indenting and tracking your changes.
Inserting an image in Word for iPad is easy. It uses photos from your Camera Roll, and you can drag the boxes to make your picture smaller or bigger.
PowerPoint presentations are easy to create as well. But on the iPad, it's more about delivering the finished presentation than it is about building it.
All your slides line up on the left, and you can click each one to add text boxes, graphics or apply transition animations.
Here's how you add a text box to a slide. You just press on the screen where you want it to go.
You can insert a new slide, apply transition effects, and annotate your slides in real time, using your finger.
You can also use your finger as a laser pointer, right on the screen. Just tap and hold for a few seconds.
The suite also includes Excel. You double-tap on cells to insert your calculations, and create charts based on the numbers. If you don't know what kind of chart to use, you can select data and hit "Recommend." The app will offer a list of chart options using your actual data in the preview.
You can move charts around. There's even a formulas Ribbon up top that includes all the functions found in the desktop version.
Now here's another cool app to try...
