Hi Adam,
Welcome to the forum!!
As long as your computer has another HDMI output then you’ll be good to replicate your screen (note if they are different resolutions it will lock it to the highest resolution - most likely your laptop’s screen, if its 4K there might be some blurring).
Depending on the size of the text he should be able to read it no worries, check out this image for reference.
Ideally, the screen should be powered from a dedicated 5V 2+ A micro USB power supply, and the touch interface can be connected using its own dedicated port
The screen is able to display whatever is coming through via HDMI, if Word is on the screen then it will pop up!

Thank you Liam .
Hello, just want to check that if my device can only output 720p or 1080p through HDMI, this monitor will accept that input and do scaling internally without tanking frame rate or doing anything else weird? The description seems to imply it should work fine. Thanks

Hi Thomas,
HDMI is a bit smart where you device will tend to adjust to what is best. Sometimes this doesn’t happen and then there could be some scaling that occurs.
