Best RTF. reader,editor and printer - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Basically they all kind of fail . Non of the office apps either read the files well or you can't edit or maybe not even print.
The only one that reads perfectly is ThinkFree HD but that one doesn't give the option to print.
I had a version that did print but decided to update and in the update there is no option to print anymore. Grrrrrrr.....
I really need a good one to read,edit and most of all print for work. I could download the attachment from the e-mail, store it on my tab. Then look for the file and open it with another app that etc etc but that's too much.
Any help???

Bloomberg application for Windows Mobile

According to many news sites from the summer (like these : http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2008/jun08/06-10BloombergMobilePR.mspx and http://visualstudiomagazine.com/news/article.aspx?editorialsid=9987), there is apparently a Bloomberg application for windows mobile similar to the iphone app. Yet, I cannot find any place to download this. Does anyone have any information on this?
Seems to be more or less an Asian thing, neverless here the MSN Search results: http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=Bloomberg+"Windows+Mobile"+download&src=IE-SearchBox
still cannot find a download site with that search from msn.com
http://bbmobile.bloomberg.com/winmo.html
yeah ...check out guys with above link ..its 472kb only cab file
Looks like you might need a Bloomberg Professional Account in order to use the Mobile Application.
I installed the .cab file on my phone, (then registered on bloomberg via the normal bloomberg website using my pc), but cannot login via the app on my mobile. It does not recognize my login name and I cannot register via the mobile...Any ideas???
Winmo is losing out big time.

Indeed, there is a bloomberg app for winmo, but it is not free. the site to download is http://bbmobile.bloomberg.com/winmo.html , but you got to register to use it. The normal account you registered cannot be use on the bloomberg winmo app. To use it, you need to call up to bloomberg and sign up a "bloomberg anywhere" account. I did call up for the same issue. to sign up, it will cost thousand per month, while iphone is giving it for free. Even Big Players such as Yahoo and Autodesk went over to iPhone.
Now u see the reason for iphone wave. If this continue, iPhone will monopolise the smart phone market. Some ppl like me, thought that Blackstone is a potential iPhone killer. After get the blankstone, I will say blankstone is good, BUT it is nowhere close to what iPhone have to offer. Some even think that Palm Pre could be the next iPhone killer. But after the review, I think not.
My next phone set could be iPhone. Hope Winmo will catch up by then. Good Luck to Winmo user like me. Major thing i still using Blackstone, is GPS and bluetooth. If iPhone can resolve these issue somehow, I dun think any of the other phones can stand before iPhone any more.
Its here! the non-pro version like for the iphone.
Been looking awhile for this, wonder why they are so quiet about it..

Thanks for the link. However, I cannot get it work on my Jasjam wm 6.1. I get the following error message:

Hi,
Could you pls supply the cab file?

[Q] QuickOffice on the Streak

I am in desperate need of a good efficient Microsoft compatible office program on my Streak. QuickOffice came preinstalled, but I cannot seem to upgrade to the full version (so it only reads pdfs). Also when I press the buy now button on their website, it pulls up marketplace and says it was not found. I have a support ticket open on their site, but so far no useful responses.
Is anyone else having this problem? Or can anyone recommend a program for reading word and excel (and maybe powerpoint)?
Another bizarre thing is that a developer (who I sent a message to saying the Streak does not display their app right) came back saying "due
to it's irregular screen size the graphics for the game don't quite fit". 800x480 is not irregular. Maybe the screen does have a higher resolution which is being scaled down like fards mentioned.
Company in Question: http://www.quickoffice.com/
.
Have you looked at documents to go?
Also I think the screen size is down to the dpi, they are using 160 dpi on the streak, don't think that's too common.
Well i had a good look around the tinternet for you and have to say there is not much out there office wise for the android
Like fards said documents to go is one but it says will not support office 2010 so from what i can see the one we have Quick office seems to be the best
Now i went to the marketplace found the quick office clicked buy now and it took me to the google checkout did you get that far ?
I reckon Quick Office, without copy & paste, is pretty redundant, that's a big & basic hole for a document editor, if it was the only option then I guess it'd still buy it and pray for an update!
Hi Fards, I'm about to purchase documents to go, I didn't know it existed for Android. I need it for creating and editing word and excel documents and then emailing them, do you use it, and are you happy with it for those basic tasks?
Regards,
Matt
Thanks for the feedback. It just seems like QuickOffice is the best solution currently out.
For the time being I may go with Documents To Go, thanks for the suggestion fards
@lufc
I cannot find it in the marketplace. Likewise, when I use my barcode reader from their website it says the app cannot be found. The same happens when I press the buy now button on the web page from my Android phone.
My Dell Streak is running Android 1.6 build 3562
Still no response from QuickOffice support.

I have a need for spreadsheet on the Streak and I compared the lite trial versions of both Documents To Go and QuickOffice. I decided that Documents To Go was much better.
Now that I have it I am blown away by its pdf capabilities whereby it word wraps the text so goodbye to terminable side to side scrolling. Amazing.
Having registered my intention to try it out, DataViz offered me the suite for $9.99 which is cheap enough so that I don’t need to compromise my ethics over it. You could say at that price it is a steal anyway - pun intended.
I use the paid for version of Docs to go and it really is good. I have used the word to go to amend work docs on the move and this week discovered the powerpoint viewer was very useful in outline mode as I could access all the notes straight from that view, which was helpful in my meeting as it also means less scrolling
Tbh I haven't used docs to go since my palm days many many years ago, but I was looking at it just before you posted The question.
I can't stand pirated software, especially when he developers work so hard and charge so little for their android stuff.

I use it on my Nexus One often. I don't create, but edit. I am very happy with Documents To Go.

Although I am a software conterfitting whore for Windows, I do indeed support Android and their developers apps. Plus at such a minimal cost, it is entirely worth it.
Bad news though, I downloaded the Documents to Go shown in my markerplace and when I opened it to press 'buy key' it brings me to the search result for Documents to Go, but does not show the full version
Looks like a may be installing an illegal version after all... Or maybe after I root my phone to a newer build it will be resolved.

I bought it direct from the website using my full win7 computer. This was in response to an email from DataViz as follows:-
"Thank you for registering our Documents To Go 2.0 "Viewer" for your Android-based device. The free Viewer version allows you to view Microsoft Word and Excel files and attachments on your device.
We are excited to offer you a special price, direct from DataViz only, on our Documents To Go Full version upgrade. "
That mail contained a link and I followed my nose from there.
Maybe best to wait for DataViz to respond to your registration after you download and install the Viewer only version?
QuickOffice updated my support ticket saying they updated the installer and to look again.
Now fully functional, purchased the app with no problems
I got an offer email through today as well do bought it, much prefer the pdf reader to the adobe one. worth the 9.99 usd for that, the amount of emails I get with pdfs in..
I used quick office and docs to go on the iphone, docs to go was better. However all the features are not on the android version and I have found the quick office version better and functionality rich (although far from perfect). The main features that made it better was the google docs integration

I use the purchased ver. of Doc.'s to go on my EVO and just purchased it again for my Streak. I use the PDF viewer a lot. One of the things you can do with the pdf viewer is go to a restaurant's web site, download their nutrition info.. Then next time you wonder how may fat calories the super sized Whopper has, you will have it at your finger tips. You can also make color coded pdf/excell doc's on a pc then email them to your streak. Open them with doc's to go and you are all set.
I discovered today that you can't open encrypted files in QuickOffice, but Docs to go (the full version at least) had no problem with it!
When I say 'encrypted' I use it in the sense that MS office uses it - you put a password on a file and save it.

Quick office will not install
Hey guys. Like it says, I can't get it to install.
I'm running StreakDroid 1.9 and Steve has HD installed as a system app so I upgraded to the full version so I could create documents and it wouldn't install.
So I deleted it from /system/apps/ and bought QuickOffice Pro and couldn't get it to install either....
any ideas?
I've wiped the cache and dalvik cache just in case and that didn't help either

there is printershare app to print to your (wifi)printer to your local network, could be accessible with a little tweak.
if want to create folder on HC, try use the go launcher HD.
hope this helps.
Yes, you can make folders in Honeycomb. Lots of them.
Use this app. (Folder Organizer)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5hYmNPcmdhbml6ZXIiXQ..
Or use Circle Launcher for an even better way to launch your favorites .
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDEwMiwiZGUuZGJ3YXJlLmNpcmNsZWxhdW5jaGVyIl0.
Most of the htc apps allow you to print via wifi, and for those that don't, an app called printshare will allow you to print almost anything. I print stuff from my flyer regularly.

OK, that is a different sort of problem. Printshare allows one to print to a network WiFi printer. I've not heard of an app that will allow one to print to a computer PDF printer. I'm not even sure you can print to a physical printer that is shared with Windows 7.

Why not just email the file to yourself? Or are you trying to save something as a PDF file from a Word file or something like that from Polaris Office?

Try enabling your printer, via windows with the sharing printer and which connected to the pc (depends on the us running OS)
http://www.pcworld.com/products/printers
html ://ask.metafilter.com/77920/Printer-sharing-over-a-WiFi-network
For support check on printer compatibility
http://www.printershare.com/help-mobile-supported.sdf
Hope this helps.
It would be interesting to set up CutePDF on your PC, and then set up Printshare to connect to your printer, and see if it will recognize that as the printer and let you print to pdf.
Longshot, but worth a try for sure.
I've got it working with Cloud Print.
It works with Google Cloud Print, you have to get that working first. Basically it sets up a Cloud Print item in the "Share" menu of any Android app. When you share with Cloud Print, the output goes to your printer.
If Google was smart(er) they would making printing a very smooth and visible part of Android. Because getting Google Cloud Print to work was a PITA, it wouldn't detect my printers and the add printer dialogs just kept going in a circle taking me back to a help page or empty list of printers. YMMV.
All I have to say is.....Dropbox.

Polaris office on S3

Does any one know how to download polaris office on S3 ?
The phone only has the viewer and asks to download the editor. Where and how can I get it ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA
The phone should have the full Polaris, no?
According to gsmarena.com: "You can view and edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents and there's a PDF viewer to boot. Editing on the large 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display is a breeze and covers an almost full set of options - text style, justification, paragraph formatting, bullets, even creating tables (that's a first). If you're editing an Excel file, you get a formula wizard, resize rows/columns, border style, merge cells and so on. Even full-featured PowerPoint presentations are doable."
Are you sure it's just a viewer? I'm going to be a very sad panda if it turns out there's only a viewer on my phone. The inclusion of a full office editing suite was a big selling point for me...
Damn Sure
Oh noes! Catastrophy!
I got my shiny new SGS3 in my hand, and there is no Polaris Office on it, and it's not available in Samsung Apps for me either!
It looks like you can open and edit existing files but you can't access the Polaris Office suite directly to create new files.
That's what it seems like on my gs3 anyway!

It is the viewer-only version. I can't edit files on my SGS3.
See if you can find the Polaris apk on the SGS2 forum and try that .

QuickOffice Pro HD

Hi all, don't know if this is a question or just a statement, leaning towards the latter:
Has anyone noticed that this device may come with a reader built in? I saw that you could launch with Adobe Reader, but when clicking around in Dropbox, suddenly I was able to use the QuickOffice Pro HD app to view things. I understand why this device would need this app, but when looking in Google Play, it doesn't seem to show up as purchased (and it's kind of confirmed in device with the fact that you cannot launch the app independently).
Another thought: I've only tested with PDFs launched from dropbox, that may be the reason. Maybe this is another reason to use dropbox? Unsure, but very curious feature, may affect how people would treat device (especially since I cannot zoom in and out of standard Adobe Reader, which is driving me nuts).
Back to studying for midterm in 8 hours, any thoughts? :fingers-crossed:
I also noticed this when using Google drive. I opened a .doc file and it used quick office to display the file (in read only mode). As you, I don't have quick office installed.

Not that this helps much but I just opened a file n dropbox and they gave me the choice of what program to use and quick office was on the list and it worked great. I didn't download it either.
Google bought QuickOffice and probably working to implement it fully into the Android maybe. That is interesting it doesn't show up anywhere else. I love using Quick office HD in my Infinity and is my go to productivity software.
QuckOffice was acquired by Google a while back....
http://www.quickoffice.com/google_acquires_quickoffice/
So it may be a part of the OS install, it doesn't show in the app drawer but it shows under apps/all in the system menu.
This is great news. Work is buying me an N10 so I will need something that can edit Office documents. I was considering buying Quickoffice.
I noticed this when I tried to backup QuickOffice Pro in Titanium Backup.
