hi im a proud new owner of an ipad. Im a student midwife and would like to save documents and create powerpoints to my ipad...any idea how i can do this?

Hi and welcome to the Forum!

It will depend what documents you wish to save.....if they are word documents you will need an app, of which there are many to select from and the same app can then create your Power points. PDF's can be saved in iBooks. I will leave it to other members to suggest some or you could do a search as we have many threads on this.
