- As with all mobile applications, your ability to edit the file depends on which apps you have installed.
- If your only mobile option is to import or copy a file into an application to edit it, we recommend you edit it from a computer instead.
- This will ensure that you are not saving unencrypted copies of restricted data on your mobile device.
