Can I sync my microsoft word and PDF files on my palm?

I am new to the Plam family and I have a question.  I use my Palm for bussiness as I'm sure most of us do, however can I sync my microsoft word and PDF files into my palm?

If I could get as much info as I can about this all the how to's that would be awesome!
Thanks and I greatly aprecaite it!

Post relates to: Pre Plus p101vzw (Verizon)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hey Paul welcome to the Palm forums.
Your Verizon Pre Plus runs a mobile operating system called HP/Palm webOS.  The current release is 1.4.5.  The phone can connect to a corporate Microsoft Exchange server.  When it does, it uses a sync technology called "Exchange Active Sync," but your phone does not run the Windows Mobile or Windows Phone operating system.
Syncing Microsoft Office and PDF documents has been sort of an adventure since the Pre debuted over 18 months ago.
DataViz, the makers of the Doc View application, was partially acquired by RIM, the makes of the BlackBerry, and have decided to not release a full version of Documents To Go for webOS devices.  Palm is working with the makers of QuickOffice to bring full Office document support to webOS in the future.
For now, if you put Office documents and PDF files in the USB storage area of your Pre, Doc View or PDF will find them and allow you to view them on your Pre.  I put all of my documents in a folder simply called "Documents".
If you connect the charging/sync cable to your Pre and then attach it to your Mac or Windows PC, you will be given a choice to turn on USB Drive mode.  When you do, you will be able to work with your Pre like you would a standard USB flash drive.  Eject the Pre from your PCs desktop when you are done and you should be all set.
Hope that helps.

  • Microsoft word and PDF file

    how do i change a microsoft office 2000 document to PDF using ADOBE?

  • Why is my word and pdf files so large? How can I reduce the size?

    My document contains mostly photos from a database via a path to the actual jpeg photos on disk.
    There are 39 jpeg photos + a small amount of text with each photo.
    The 39 jpeg photos on the disk add up to be 5.79 mb.
    If I export the crystal reports document as [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Non Editable] the, the file size is 36.8 mb.
    If I export the same data as a [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Editable] the file size is only 3.1 mb.
    That is a difference of 33.7 mb! Why?
    Also, when I export the same data to a PDF file it is much larger than I think it should be; 12.7 mb.
    Why is my word and PDF files so large?
    How can I reduce the size of the word and PDF files? (without reducing the photo quality).
    Are there any tools to post process the Word or PDF files to reduce the file size?

    You can't, extra size is to hold the details

    I am having the same problem I think.  With mobileme you simply copy documents to the idisk folder and then synch.  I cannot seem to sink that folder anymore.  Any idea as to how I can simply copy folders to icloud and then access the MS Word and PDF files on my iphone?

    Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
    Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
    , so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
    No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
    Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
    Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
    Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
    They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.

  • How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad

    How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad?

    You can email them, you can use DropBox, SugarSync or another cloud service or you can use iOS file sharing.
    But in all cases you need an app on the iPad that will open and save those types of files. iBooks, Adobe Readers, Good Reader and Save 2 PDF will all save PDF files.
    Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro and the Apple iWorks apps will open and save the MS office files. You can Google - "iPad apps that are compatible with Microsoft Office files" and you will find other alternatives - or search the app store for more.
    You can read this as well for some instruction on getting those files onto an iPad.

  • How can I transfer document ie word and exel files between my iPad and my laptop

    How can I transfer files ie Word and Exel between my iPad and my laptop.

    It depends on what app(s) that you are using on your iPad that you want to transfer the documents between - without and app the documents cannot be saved (apart from as email attachments), as unlike 'normal' computers the iPad doesn't have a file system and files/documents have to be stored/associated with an app. Once you've got an app then, depending on what it is, transfer might be done via the file sharing section at the bottom of the iPad's apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, via wifi, email attachments, Dropbox etc.
    Documents To Go supports (http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/documents-to-go-office-suite/id317117961?mt=8) supports both Word and Excel files and how to transfer to/from it is described on this page http://support.dataviz.com/support.srch?docid=14497&pid=198

  • How to show content from microsoft word and pdf on a page

    Hi,
    I have a microsoft word file stored in content repository and I want to show it in web page. When I drag and drop it using content presenter it shows file as a link with some extra details like created by, last modified by etc. I want content to appear in UI page itself. Content of document should get converted to html at runtime and then appear in UI. Is it possible?
    Thanks
    Sanjeev

    Sanjeev,
    I see you have as similar requirement you posted in the thread here :
    Skipping ucm login form when showing content on webcenter application.
    InBound Refinery (IBR) would be the easiest way to accomplish this though.
    Once you have IBR installed and configured (you need to pick what formats need to be converted in the refinery, and in your case, choose MS Office formats),
    You can use the document viewer taskflow to render PDF versions of your Word/Excel or PDF documents on a webcenter page. There is little to no setup required for this, beyond configuring IBR (but configuring IBR is fairly involved) and selecting what MIME types you want IBR to process.
    Another thing to watch out for if you are using Spaces is, make sure you set the context root for UCM properly though EnterpriseManger.
    Dynamic Converter can also be used to get similar results. You mention that you are using an Iframe, that means the client is making a request to UCM directly, and to avoid re-authenticating there, you should have SSO enabled. With Dynamic converter, you can use a URL of the form :
    http:// +<host>:<port>+ / +<context_root>+ /idcplg?IdcService=GET_DYNAMIC_CONVERSION&dDocName= +<docID>+ &RevisionSelectionMethod=LatestReleased
    To get an HTML rendition of that document.
    Hope it helps !

    I am a new user of i-pad 2 and I find problem while trying to transfer some pdf file from my non apple laptop. Help me to inform How to do the same...

    You need to have an app on your iPad that can use these files. pdf files can be opened by the iBooks app and a number of other 3rd party apps. You will need to check in the iTunes App Store for an app that can handle MS Word files.
    You can sync pdfs to iBooks on the iPad following these instructions from the iPad User Guide;
    Use iTunes to sync your books with iPad. When iPad is connected to your computer, the Books pane lets you choose which books to sync.
    In addition to books that you download from iBookstore, iBooks works with books that are pdf or in ePub format and DRM-free. There are several websites that offer ePub books, and many of these books can be used with iBooks.
    Add a pdf or an ePub book: Download the book using your computer, then add it to your iTunes library. Connect iPad to your computer, select the book in the Books pane in iTunes, then sync iPad.
    To sync pdfs and Word files to other apps is a different process. In iTunes on the computer go to the File Sharing section of the Apps tab and highlight the app that youwish to use for the files. Press the Add button and then browse to where the files are located on your computer and choose them.

  • Convert pdf files into wiki pages, and export wiki pages as word and pdf files

    I am working on an enterprise wiki site collection inside my SharePoint server 2013. And there was a requirement to automatically generate wiki pages from word documents. As I read that the built-in service within SharePoint does not support importing the
    pictures within the word documents. So I looked into 3rd party tools and I settle on the “Kaboodle Word to Wiki” link
    which will manage to convert word docs into wiki pages, with only minor layout problems.
    But I want to know if there are additional tools which support the following:-
