Default Getting lyrics sheets into an Ipad air

My second step into Mac Kingdom!
I have a used iPad AIR on its way and am looking at various setlist/lyrics manager apps, but the one thing worrying me is knowing where I can download actual lyrics files either in pdf word txt or whatever format

I have the lyrics to hundreds of tunes including some of my own already saved in these formats and would hate to discover I either have to do it all again in a different format or (worse) actually pay to get them from Apple. Any ideas?

There may be some "whatever" formats that the IPad can't read but it's fine with PDF, Word and txt. I've also just acquired an IPad and I've copied a lot of my old docs of various sorts over there with very little fuss.

But I guess it may depend on what your chosen setlist/lyric manager can handle. Editing some formats is a bit trickier but in general reading is no problem.

I use forScore for this on my iPad and it works great. I'm only using it with PDF files though, and I import the files from Dropbox.
