Mobile does not fully support some features, such as revision marks and password protection. Some data
and formatting may be lost when you save the document on your device.

Bi-directional text: While Word Mobile will open documents containing bi-directional text, the
indentations and alignment may be displayed and saved incorrectly.
Document protection: Word documents can be protected from unauthorized changes by using
Protect Document on the computer. Word Mobile does not support displaying les that have been
protected in this manner.

The original font is listed on your device. When a document that has been edited in Word Mobile is
opened on the computer, text is displayed in the original font.

are retained when a document is edited and saved on the device. When a document is opened again
