I have set everything up but I can’t load files into the app. I am using Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx files) and/or Adobe Acrobat Reader (.pdf files) but all files are greyed out in the app. I have managed to copy and paste my script onto the TeleprompterPAD® app screen, but I don’t want to use this method with all scripts. How can I load files directly into your app?
Answer from TeleprompterPAD®
As indicated in the open file message (after pressing the folder icon from the top menu), the TeleprompterPAD® app accepts plain text files in .txt format with UTF-8 encoding, therefore only files with a .txt extension will be selectable to open in the app.
You can save or convert to .txt format from any text software, such as Microsoft Word or Pages or you can use a fee online service.

However, reading a file is not mandatory, you can use the alternative copy-paste method which in most cases is faster and easier.
