welcome guys in this video I would like to show you how to convert a word file to a PDF on the iPad let's Dive Right In first of all let's head over to your word file typically we find these files here in the files app in my case I can either open it up from here or I can also open it up by swiping down with one finger from the middle search for files and then open up the files up from there and we have our files on the iPad usually in one of these two places here on iCloud drive or simply here in the folder called on my iPad I have my word document right here and now for us to turn that word document into a PDF here's what we have have to do first of all we tap on our Word file this will open it up I simply have a list here with the states of the US there's an ugly formating error right here as you've probably seen that's not ideal but doesn't really matter for this tutorial here so once you opened up your word document what you're going to do is you're going to tap on this share icon in the upper right corner of the screen then you will tap on print here don't worry we're not going to print this word document but we need to do that in order to change it into a PDF so we tap on print here and now in the upper right corner once again tap here on the share icon and up here under the name of your word file you can already recognize that it actually says PDF so now all that is left for us to do is to Simply Save this file and we will have our PDF so what we're going to do here is simply to tap on save to files then we have to decide on a location here on the iPad I will just save it in the on my iPad folder but you could also save it in the iCloud drive folder if you want and once that is set in the upper right corner of the screen simply tap on Save now we can close our document here by tapping on done in the upper right corner of the screen and you should then find your newly created PDF just one more thing if you can't see the file extensions for your files here you can easily solve that issue by tapping on this Four Square icon here in the upper right then go to view options and make sure that show all extensions here is ticked once you've done that you will always see the file extension for each file here in the files app this is actually very convenient because if you don't see that there will be a lot of confusion for example now we turned a word file into a PDF but if you don't see the file extension here in the files app you don't even know which file is which because the name might be exactly the same just the file extension is different and that's all there is to it if you enjoyed this video please make sure to smash the like button and subscribe for more iPad tutorials
