According to this article: http://readwrite.com/2014/03/27/5-things-know-microsoft-office-ipad/ If you download Office for iPad it is read only. If you want to edit, you need an Office 365 subscription, which will cost you.

As I understand from my link it is read only...unless you have a Microsoft ID where you can then write letters and print. If you do go for Office 365 then yes... you will have to pay...($6.99 a month)

Unless you installed office when it was free you will need a 365 subscription. Or get android or windows phone when it's free always.

Although Office 365 can be installed free of charge if you go to YouTube.  I know this for a fact..and it works.

I won't post the link. A quick search will do the trick...:smileywink:

None taken. If I don't know something though I will normally check before posting. I didn't know much about this so checked via Google, Microsoft, Ray (re free version) and D.I.L re her experience of using office and Word on her 3 ipads...
