Getting started
What is IAPont for?
IAPont is a workspace for opening a document, refining its source and seeing its presentation. Compare editorial profiles, then export your text for its next use, without locking it into a new tool.
Link to this answer : What is IAPont for?Do I need an account or an AI subscription?
The document workflow needs no IAPont account or connection to an AI service. Start with your own text. Structural checks and conversions do not automatically establish whether your information is true.
Link to this answer : Do I need an account or an AI subscription?Can I work on a phone?
The interface is designed for opening, editing, previewing and exporting on phones and computers. Use Open file and your device's picker. Drag and drop is optional; the layout adapts to the available space.
Link to this answer : Can I work on a phone?How do I open my first document?
Choose Open file, paste text or try an example. After an accepted import, source and preview appear without a Generate button. If there is an error, read the message to understand the limit encountered.
Link to this answer : How do I open my first document?Must I know Markdown?
Start with ordinary paragraphs. Editing commands help insert headings, lists, links and emphasis. A short example shows what the notation does before you prepare a full article.

Which file formats can I open?
Markdown, TXT, IAPont document JSON and targeted imports of text PDFs and unprotected EPUBs are supported. This is not universal layout reconstruction: protected, damaged or unsupported documents may be rejected with an explanation.
Link to this answer : Which file formats can I open?Why might a scanned PDF fail?
A scanned page can be an image rather than extractable text. The local importer is not a universal OCR tool. It reports when it cannot find usable text rather than claiming a successful conversion.
Link to this answer : Why might a scanned PDF fail?Is my original file changed?
IAPont edits a copy opened in the workspace. Editing does not automatically rewrite your device's file. Export the result and choose where to keep it outside the browser.
Link to this answer : Is my original file changed?Why choose an editorial profile?
A profile changes presentation, not your source. Kachouri, Pierre Gassin and IAPont profiles offer different layouts. The preview is a simulation, not a certified reproduction of another site; substitute fonts and simulated media remain identified.
Link to this answer : Why choose an editorial profile?What does simulated screen width mean?
Mobile, Tablet and Desktop change the document's layout width inside the preview. This helps inspect headings, tables and reading rhythm, but does not replace testing on a real device with its keyboard and browser.
Link to this answer : What does simulated screen width mean?Why are some images missing?
A document must not automatically contact external image servers. Media unavailable in the supported local workflow appears as a clearly simulated placeholder, so you can inspect the layout without an automatic network request.

Where are my documents saved?
Vault copies stay in this browser's storage for IAPont. They are not a folder synchronized across devices. Document copies use IndexedDB; small interface preferences have a different role.
Link to this answer : Where are my documents saved?Will my text appear automatically on my computer?
Not on a different device or browser. Export the document and open that copy elsewhere. No automatic phone-to-computer synchronization is claimed.
Link to this answer : Will my text appear automatically on my computer?Is the vault a permanent backup?
No. Browser quotas, eviction or deletion of site data can remove copies. Keep exported backups of important documents. Saved means a write succeeded in this browser, not on another storage device.
Link to this answer : Is the vault a permanent backup?What does Clear workspace do?
It closes the active document, clears the preview and stops reading. It does not delete the original file or copies already saved in the vault. Unsaved edits require confirmation before closing.
Link to this answer : What does Clear workspace do?How do I delete a vault copy?
Open the vault and use the deletion action for that copy. Read the confirmation, including any versions affected. Clearing the workspace and deleting a saved copy are separate actions.
Link to this answer : How do I delete a vault copy?What if saving is blocked?
Keep the tab open and export a copy. Check browser storage permissions and available space, then retry. A failed save must not prevent reading or exporting the text still in the workspace.
Link to this answer : What if saving is blocked?How can I check available space?
The Device storage panel shows the browser's estimate when available. It is not an exact measurement of your entire disk. If no estimate is available, the interface says so instead of inventing a value.
Link to this answer : How can I check available space?What does persistent storage request do?
It asks the browser to protect site data from automatic eviction. The browser can refuse. It adds neither device synchronization nor encryption and cannot prevent deliberate deletion of site data.
Link to this answer : What does persistent storage request do?How do I take my whole vault with me?
Export the selected copies and versions. Restoration previews conflicts before writing and never silently replaces an existing document. Check your downloaded file: starting a download does not guarantee it was kept.

Does speech reading work with every voice?
The local workflow offers only voices reported as local by the browser. Availability depends on your system. Without a suitable local voice, the text remains readable and no remote speech service silently takes over.
Link to this answer : Does speech reading work with every voice?Why does highlighting sometimes follow paragraphs, not words?
Speech engines expose different word boundaries. IAPont uses the available information and falls back to paragraph tracking when precise tracking is unavailable. It does not invent progress with a timer.
Link to this answer : Why does highlighting sometimes follow paragraphs, not words?Which export format should I choose?
Use Markdown to continue editing, HTML for presentation or TXT for plain text. JSON and JSONL carry the structures actually prepared. PDF import does not imply PDF export; read the displayed limits.
Link to this answer : Which export format should I choose?Does clicking an ecosystem tool transfer my document?
No. ITYLOS, RoastMyURL and other cards are links, not automatic document transfers. You choose what to do on the destination site. A logo is not a security label or an audit certificate.
Link to this answer : Does clicking an ecosystem tool transfer my document?How do RAG and OAM differ in IAPont?
IAPont prepares passages and metadata. RAG preparation organizes what other tools will retrieve; the OAM discussion on Kachouri addresses context, relationships and changes over time. IAPont is not itself a question-answering engine or a complete OAM implementation.

Does local mean always offline?
No. Local describes document processing in the browser. Initially loading the application and its assets can require a connection. Complete offline operation needs separate verification.
Link to this answer : Does local mean always offline?Can my vault appear in sitemaps or AI files?
Discovery files and the FAQ describe public product pages only. They do not contain your text, filenames, personal metadata or vault copies. Public discoverability does not require exposing private documents.
Link to this answer : Can my vault appear in sitemaps or AI files?How do I report a problem?
Give the page, device, browser, steps and visible error. Prefer a small non-confidential example. For security issues, use the published security.txt contact when configured; do not expose sensitive documents in a public screenshot.
