Microsoft’s Office suite has been a big hit on the iPad so far but it was also missing a crucial feature when it was first released last month: The ability to print out your documents from your tablet. Don’t fret, however, because Microsoft announced on Tuesday that it’s issuing its first update on Office for iPad that will enable printing on Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Other features included in the update are SmartGuides, a PowerPoint feature designed to “help you align pictures, shapes, and textboxes as you move them around on a slide,” and AutoFit, a new Excel feature that “lets you adjust the width of multiple rows or the height of multiple columns at the same time. With just a few taps, you’ll be sure that your spreadsheet looks better and that no content is hidden.”
