How do I download and save a pdf file on iPad2

I just got and love my iPad2 and am learning a lot.  What I can't do is download a pdf file that is an attachment to my gmails.  It won't open the attachment nor when I click on it will it download.  I have installed both the iBook app and pdf-notes free also.  I have a number of large cross stitch charts which I have purchased in pdf format.  Several people I know use the iPad instead of printing all the pages ( can be 20+ or much more), can easily enlarge portions of the chart and with pdf-notes can highlight sections that have been stitched.  My Comcast email will open the pdf attachment using the xfinity app, but there is nothing that tells me to save it in either iBook or pdf.  I don't know what I am doing wrong.  If I have to do something to the settings, I can't figure out or find out what to do.  Its not a critical problem, but one I would like to solve. 
Thanks

Just figured it out while I was typing more detail for you.  If I go to gmail through Safari, not using the mail app (which is what I have been doing) I then get the open in iBooks or open in pdf-notes options when I  open the pdf attachment.  There isn't a little box in the corner of the PDF that has a "send to" icon with either email program.  I don't know why it doesn't work with the email apps, but I've bookmarked gmail in Safari so I can get there.
Thank you for your help and your quick response.  I really appreciate it.

    How can I download and view a pdf with iphone?

    If the PDF is an email attachment, you can view it by tapping on the attachment icon while you are viewing the email message. Another option is to set up a dropbox account and then use a computer to drop the PDF into your account. Install the iOS dropbox app and you can view PDFs there that way.

  • How do I download and saves html files off my website to store and save using Dreamweaver CS3?

    How do I download and saves html files off my website to store and save using Dreamweaver CS3?
    I need to save all files from web and store onto a drive to reupload to a new domain name.  I use Dreamweaver CS3.

    First define your Local Site folder in Dreamweaver.  DW will use this folder to store your site files.
    Go to Manage Sites > New or Edit site.  See screenshots.
    Servers:  Enter your remote server's log-in details.  When complete, hit TEST to see if the connection is working.  If all is well, hit SAVE.
    From the Files Panel (F8), click on Remote Server to show the files that are currently there.  Click the green Down Arrow to GET files from remote server to your local site folder.

    SWF files are flash files, which are not supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
    If you want to play the file then the iSwifter or Skyfire browser apps might work (they don't work on all flash sites) but you won't be able to download it

  • How do I download and save my Free Press e-Edition?

    My e-Edition of the Detroit Free Press opens automatically once I'm logged in.  I want to be able to download and save it, but the way it opens doesn't give me those options.  Therefore, if I'm not in an area with WiFi, I can't read the paper.  I want to be able to download and save it sol, when I'm at my friend's house (he's blind), I can read the paper to him.  thanks.

    Late note:
    It may work with earlier versions of Firefox, or it may be updated at some point, but it's not working with the current version of Firefox as I post this.

  • How to Zoom in and Out on PDF files in Safari?

    Safari help is not helpful since it gives inaccurate information on how to Zoom in and Out on a PDF file that has opened in Safari. The help says to control click the page and choose the zooming level you desire. However control clicking the PDF file in Safari brings up a save page box. I tried some of the other keys with clicking and they did not work. Thanks in advance to those who helped me save a PDF file to the desktop so I can view in Preview.- But often I just need to be able to zoom in to read the tiny text that is displayed.

    Thanks for getting back to me-
    the website I am trying to zoom into a PDF on is:
    http://www.beedocuments.com/software/Timeline/screenshots.html
    I click on one of the screenshots- it loads into a safari window.
    When I control key click on the image- a pop up menu comes up asking me to save the image to deskotp- add it my image library and 2 other save options. No zoom in or Zoom out. I only have an apple pro mouse and my track pad- so right clicking isn't an option.

  • Create and save a .pdf file

    Afternoon!  I am creating a pdf utilizing the cfdocument tag and it works great.  It opens and displays well.  My question is, is there a way to automatically save that generated pdf on the server without opening it?  My end goal is to run a scheduled task every week that creates and saves a pdf automatically.

    <cfdocument format="pdf" orientation="landscape" filename="YourPDFName.pdf" overwrite="yes">
    it will save a copy of the pdf in the same folder as the <cfdocument> is run from, the problem I got is it wond display the pdf at creation time, all that is returned to my screen is the letter "z"
    so may be best to fun the code in a loop and one time add in the filename and overwrite paramaters, if you dont need it displayed, then your gold.

  • How can I repair and open damaged PDF files?

    I need to download every online issue of ASOS magazine, which are all PDF files, and I have already downloaded at least five to my USB stick, and they have all worked perfectly. However, there are five more issues that I have not downloaded, and I need to download them. To my frustration, every time that I download any of these files to the same USB stick, a box appears saying that the file cannot be open because it is damaged and cannot be repaired. I have followed your instructions and saved these files to my hard drive instead, but they are still damaged and do not open properly. Please tell me how I can open my files without Adobe Reader saying that they are damaged.
    Steps to reproduce the bug:
    I download an online issue of ASOS magazine from ASOS.com or Publitas.com; the latter is the official website for bask issues of ASOS magazine.
    The file downloads as normal.
    I open the file in Adobe Reader.
    Result: A box appears saying that the file is damaged, and that Adobe Reader is trying to repair the file. Only a second later, another box appears, saying that the file cannot be repaired, thus not allowing me to view the file as normal.
    The result that I want: No boxes appear saying that the file is damaged, and it opens as normal.

    The download links of the problem PDF files are:
    http://epub02.publitas.com/ASOS/11/magazine.php
    http://epub02.publitas.com/ASOS/10/magazine.php
    http://epub02.publitas.com/ASOS/17/magazine.php?spread=88#/spreadview/
    http://epub02.publitas.com/ASOS/19/magazine.php?spread=90#/spreadview/0/
    http://epub02.publitas.com/ASOS/23/magazine.php?spread=88
    The latest issue of the ASOS online magazine can always be downloaded at:
    http://www.asos.com/au/Women/Magazine/Womens-Magazine-Asos/Cat/pgehtml.aspx?cid=6200&WT.ac =Nav_Magazine
    My OS is WIndows Vista with Service Pack 2. The browser that I use is Internet Explorer.
    The way I download these files is quite simple:
    I open any one of the webpages whose URLs I have listed.
    I wait a few minutes for the software that allows the magazine to be read online to load fully. Publitas.com allows entire magazines to be viewed online, and also, among many other features, provides viewers with a search engine which allows them to search for certain words or phrases in the magazine.
    Once the software has fully loaded, on the toolbar at the top of the webpage (in the case of ASOS.com, the toolbar is underneath the various toolbars and boxes found on www.asos.com) there is a button featuring the Adobe Reader logo; when you hover your mouse over the logo, it will say 'download PDF'. To download the PDF file, you first click on the logo.
    The 'View Downloads- Windows Internet Explorer' window will open. The name of the PDF file, and the URL on which it was found, will both appear in the window, under the Name column. Under the Location column, it will say, 'Do you want to open or save this file?'. Under the Actions column, there will be two buttons, saying Open and Save. I click on the arrow on the save button and choose to save the PDF to my hard drive, in the Documents folder (which is currently the default folder for saving PDF files).
    That is how I download a PDF.

  • How can I store and view a pdf file ?

    I have an iphone 3GS 32Gb and want to store a pdf file on my phone so that I can view it later.
    Email is the only way I have been able to view my pdf file, but I dont really want to do it this way.
    On previous phones I could save a file on the phones memory card and then open the file in the necessary app.
    This is something I know the iphone doesnt do, but I was wondering if there is a way around it or an app.

    [File Magnet|http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/filemagnet-read-and-e-mail-your/id2847971 61?mt=8] is pretty good.
    I did find one app (I cant remember the name, thought it was Air Share) and it said Apple had told them to change the app so that you cant transfer files over USB, only Wi-Fi.
    I think that was [FileApp|http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/fileapp-previously-fileaid-document/id2 97804694?mt=8], (previously File Aid).
    Apple dont like people being able to use their phone like this.... bloody control freaks.
