Kingsoft Office

ivanjt · 09-23-2013, 06:16 PM

One of the tech sites I visit mentioned Kingsoft Office as being one of the better office suits for the Android platform.

I downloaded it from; http://www.kingsoftstore.com/kingsoft-office-android (it is free), installed it as I normally do from my FTP server without any problems - I think it is also available from the play store.

It works without any problems that I can see on our rather old Android version - been using it for just over two weeks now.

The only complaint that I have, and it is personal preferences, is that it saves in microsoft formats rather than open doc formats.

Do you think I'm a bit freak as this is one of the programs I discovered in my first week with Galaxy Tab? I like a lot how it works.

It is nice, but how do I find the settings or options page... I want to set up my cloud drives....

Touch the 'save as' icon and it will bring up a menu headed Location ¦ Cloud Storage. If you select Cloud Storage it will show 'Save file to ... and then list Google Drive, Dropbox, BOX and SkyDrive. Select which one you want to use and it opens the login page for the service, fill in your details and continue to login and save the file.

I have to say that those are the only supported cloud storage providers available at the moment as far as I can see. Also I have never used this function because we have our own storage setup on our FTP server and there is no way I will put company information on a server in the US because of their snooping NSA.
