Hi, I haven written a story on my iPad, created using online MS Word.
I want to transfer to my Laptop using Open office.
Using One Drive was easy, it opens in Open Office using MS Office but to continue I have the options of a Trial, that's not long enough and I don't want to pay monthly or buy.
Anyway round this its also stored on iPad Pages, an Apples word process.
Answer
The cheap and cheerful method is simply to email the Word document to yourself from the iPad as an attachment.
Open the email on your laptop, and you have the document that you can then open with Open Office.
Cheers FE. Of course, thank you.
