Documents App for iPad by Readdle -- A Swiss Army Knife of DocumentReaders

Documents is a powerful document and image reading and annotation app for the ipad developed by Readdle the authors of Good Reader. In fact Documents, which is currently free on the Apple App Store, will be replacing Good Reader (currently a Pay app).

Documents can open and display text, PDFs, convert Word and Pages documents to a readable form, open slides from Keynote and PowerPoint, graphics, video and music files can be opened and played within the app as well.

You can create a text file, markup (in multiple colors) documents as highlight, underline, strike through and more. The only action it doesn't appear to be able to do, which Good Reader and some other apps can do, is write comments in a PDF document.

Documents supports a large list of Cloud Services such as DropBox, SkyDrive, Google Drive, Box Net, SugarSync, and more. You can also allow you to email, upload your documents to other applications such as notebook apps, utilities such as Zip+ and cloud services. With Documents you can create folders using Its internal file system. View in list or icon formats.
