The saved documents can be opened with any text editor of yourchoice. The same file opens perfectly on your laptop/desktop too.However if you want to update the file, you should open it inTamilPad.

One more thing to note here is that the folder also contains a"tmp" folder which contains some metadata of the files saved. Soplease make sure that the files under this folder is not deletedincase you want to edit the saved files later.
