I've spent some time trying to figure this out and can't find a way. When you go to Share a text file, Across Lite does not show up as an app to share with. Let me know if you figure it out.

I don't have an iPad or know anything about it, or I'd try to help. Anyway, I thought I'd comment on this a bit more. Anyway, posting the PUZ files instead of the TXT script is very easy from a technical standpoint. After all, the process here has failed enough times that it's been automated on my end and actually I could post them much earlier here than I do, much closer to the time they usually appear here when the process works.
The issue was more finding the stable server space to host the files (I could drop box them easily, but the biggest problem is hosting a front-end HTML) along with the legal permission to distribute them. The questions on the legal end are the biggest impediment, tbh. Reposting them on a site that has legal permission when the process here fails is one thing (these forum posts), reposting them on your own server is a totally different thing. I thought about trying to email Rich Norris and see about that, but since I don't have my own web server, it's a moot point anyway. Edit: I e-mailed him.
