Touch is simply so intuitive for moving images around and resizing PowerPoint slide headings, especially as the text realigns itself to flow around the newly-sized art.

Images can be resized and moved at the touch of a finger.ДЇor most of my testing, I paired MicrosoftвЂ™s preloaded iPad Air with a Pi Dock-It Pro keyboard case from Parle Innovation, but I also found myself banging away on the tablet itself. All I saw was the default circular view, however. Atalla said that Microsoft developed an elongated, widened zoom that highlighted a word. Holding down your finger brings up the zoom or spyglass icon. Pressing and releasing brings up a set of options to select or insert text.

Working with text in Office for iPad should be intuitive to anyone who has used iOS: Tapping once on a word moves the cursor to that location tapping twice creates a series of slider bars to highlight a block of text.

In Word, for example, Office for iPad preserves the footnoting capability but cuts out the вЂњMailingsвЂќ and вЂњReferencesвЂќ headings. Quite frankly, I prefer it to working in Office 2013, if only because Microsoft organizes the most commonly-used functions so intuitively, using an icon-driven ribbon at the top of the screen. Office for iPad represents the distilled Office experience, poured into an iOS glass.

Working with docs in Office for iPad is a far cray from editing in Office Mobile for iPhone. Built for touch from the ground upДЄccording to Michael Atalla, director of product management for Office, Office for iPad represents neither a вЂњblown-upвЂќ Office Mobile for iPhone nor a stripped-down Office for Windows, but rather a custom version of Office designed expressly for the iPad. What makes Office for iPad so important, naturally, is that one can actually do something with the document, rather than hunt and peck at it, as one must in Office Mobile on a smartphone. Each Office 365 subscription includes at least one tablet subscription, which covers Office for iPad. In a nice twist, you can connect both your personal OneDrive and OneDrive for Business accounts and connect to SharePoint as well.В However, to createВ or editВ documents, you must subscribe to Office 365: either Office 365 Home Premium ($9.99 per month), the upcoming Office 365 Personal ($6.99 per month), or one of several business options. But Office 365 also includes a subscription to OneDrive, MicrosoftвЂ™s cloud storage solution, a central repository from which one can withdraw and store documents.
