How to show Oscar charts?

How to show Oscar charts?
With any luck Thursday I have an appointment with a pulmonologist. (He’s cancelled on me 3 times already.)

What would be the best way to show the Oscar charts? I tried printing them out but they seemed hard to read. I don’t have a laptop but I could borrow one. 

I was thinking of screen capping them and loading them up on an old iPad. That seems the easiest. 

Is there a better way?

A laptop is better, that way your doctor can browse and zoom to see details. That way he can zoom if he sees something questionable.

I would have a set of screen prints to quickly show him, 1 min or less, to showcase what you have issues with then offer the laptop.

I have the same problem with Oscar print out. It is so small it is hard to read. I finally took a screen shot and printed that. It seems that when you print from the Oscar print function the fonts are too small. I don't know if it was done on purpose or for other reasons. When I printed from Sleepyhead the printout covered the whole page. Maybe someone who is more computer literate can figure it out.

I bring my laptop when I see the doctor. If you think of the laptop as CPAP related, having one just for that purpose is not really very expensive.

Does anyone think it is bizarre that the best software the doctor has available is open source and free? My doctor does not know how to read data from my F&P Icon+. The F&P software never provided data to me. It only sends data to the doctor that I had in 2015 who could not or would not help me.
