| How so I change options? |
| Paper Calc Office's options page is to the right of the main keypad. If you touch and slide the keypad from right-to-left you will see the page. Also, in the top right corner of the options page is a button which will show a full-screen view of the paper tape. |
|
| Where are the brackets? |
| Paper Calc Office was designed as a simple chain calculator for short calculations. For example: What is the squareroot of 2? What was my gas mileage (330 miles / 19.2 gals). It was also designed to give an exact history of what was calculated in the past. For people who need this simplicity, brackets are actually a hindrance. |

| How do I use the percent (%) key? |
There are two ways to use the % key:
- Obtain the % of a number:

- PaperCalc took 5% of 200.

| What are the three display formats for? |
| People doing general math want as many decimal places as possible (float), Someone doing monetary math wants a fixed number of decimal places (fix.n), and an engineer generally wants a power that is a multiple of 3 (eng^3). Easily access the three different formats by pressing the display format key on the main keypad. |

| How do I use the MEM key? |
A MEM key is available if the Office+ keypad is selected (see How do I load the Office+ keypad item below). Any one of the 10 memory locations can be accessed in 3 button pushes as follows:
- Touch the MEM key
- CLR, ADD, SUB, RCL, STO will show as yellow
- Select one of the 5 functions (for example STO).
- The STO key will become grey and the 10 number keys will show red or green dots in the bottom left corner. Red means there is a number in the location. Green means the location is empty.
- Select a location (for example the 4 key)
- The number on the LCD display will be stored in location 4
To recall the number touch: MEM, RCL, 4.
To add to the number already stored in location 4 touch: MEM, ADD, 4. |

| How do I make my keys larger? |
| Paper Calc Office has a very powerful feature for sizing your keys to your needs. Just touch the calculator's LCD display and move it up or down to re-size the keys. |
|
| I see a button for printing, but it doesn't seem to work. |
| Paper Calc Office supports AirPrint which allows an iOS device to print directly to a printer. The printer must be a wireless printer on the same local network as your iOS device. Also, the wireless printer must be an AirPrint printer. For example HP's printer use the term 'ePrint capable'. |
|
| How do I load the Office+ keypad or make and save my own keypad layouts? |
To load the Office+ keypad touch: 'i' (info) key and select Edit Keypad Layout.
At the top of the calculator 5 buttons will appear:
- Office and Office+ are preloaded keypads. Office+ includes a √, 1/x, pi and MEM key.
- Save 1, 2, 3 are spaces available to store your own keypads.
Make keypads by touching any key on the keypad and moving it. Tap a key to change its size. A key will become double wide if the space to its right is empty. If keys are made half-high, they can be stacked in a single keyspace. Touch Save 1, 2, 3. The new design will be saved. Touch the same Save 1, 2, or 3 and you can recall the keypad, or rename it. |
