HT4059 How do I sync the .pdf files in my ibook on iTunes 11 to my ipad mini with ios6?

The new iTunes 11 is confusing me. I also have a new ipad mini with ios6 on it. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to transfer the .pdf files in my iTunes library on my PC to the ipad mini. When it syncs, ibooks does not transfer the files.

Thanks for letting those who come here for help know that my navigation instructions are wrong on a PC with iTunes 11. The issue though is computer independent and relates to iTunes 11. When the device and iTunes quit syncing back and forth, there is potential for data loss. When trying to manually update, the iTunes library wants to replace the contents of the device with the library. That is not a problem if the content is complete. I had a situation where multiple pdf documents were added to iBooks from sources other than iTunes and were failing to sync back to iTunes. I had a choice, let iTunes replace the contents of my device and lose my pdf's or figure out a way to get my documents off the device and add them back. I chose the later, emailing them from iBooks to my computer. I then synced my iTunes library to the device replacing its contents. I added back my pdf's by dropping them into iTunes and synced. I have not experienced the problem since. My device and iTunes are now syncing with each other properly, including wirelessly.

How do I sync a PDF file between iPhone and iPad in iBooks?

How do I sync a PDF file between iPhone and iPad in iBooks?

If the PDF supports it then you can try opening the PDF in iBooks on your phone and use the 'share' icon (the square with the upward pointing arrow) to email it to yourself (some PDFs a protected and don't support emailing) and use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPad to copy it to its Mail app.
Or you can connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy it over to your iTunes (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just ibooks) and if using a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it then do File > Move Books From iTunes in its iBooks app, and you can then sync it to your iPad.

How can I make the pdf file size smaller?

Hi vickyb,
Reducing the file size of PDF requires Acrobat (one way is by choosing File > Save As > Reduced Size PDF). If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.
Best,

Reducing PDF file size or Optimizing PDF is the feature that is supported only by Acrobat Pro (desktop app that is not free).
Optimizing PDFs (Acrobat Pro)
Free Adobe Reader products (Reader XI desktop, Reader for iOS, Reader for Android, Reader Touch for Windows 8, etc) do not offer the capability.

in digital editions how to you access the pdf file on your computer - I want to read in acrobat as digital editions too hard to read.@@

On Mac, try looking in:
/Users/dug.geo/Documents/Digital Editions
On Windows, look for "Digital Editions" in "My Documents". If it's not there, look one level above "My Documents".
If you know the filename of the PDF, you could also try doing a file system search for it.

Do you sync with iTunes and are the PDF files in your iTunes library? If they are, sync the iPad with iTunes.

How to know if the pdf file is opened.

Hi,
on my web site I have many pages containing hundrend of url pointing to the pdf documents.
The problem is how I can know that the pdf file was open or downloaded by user ( I used session for this task). I have to point out that I did not integrate in my page any javascript action on those documents.
This point will help me to solve some historical access on the web site.
Thank you

Your best bet would be to create a filter that will handle access to pdf files. This filter would be bound to /*.pdf and can have access to the users HttpSession object so you are able to find out who requested this file and logic it how ever you wish.
I Hope this helps

How can I Split the PDF File into different pages?

Hi,
My requirment is to split the pdf file , which is obtained by using FM "convert_otf" , into seperate PDF file for each employee data(PERNR).
Please suggest me the way to slipt the PDF file that has to be downloaded into the presentation server.

Hi,
Ok, looking at that programm didn't actually help me very much to understand what's going on, or where you have the CONVERT_OTF call... Regardless, if the suggestion by Raymond is not feasible in your scenario, the thing I'd try to do is - splitting the spool (OTF) contents before calling CONVERT_OTF into individual documents (feeding it to convert FM piecemeal)... The link to OTF format and commands documentation is here.
Again, it's difficult to give a good algorithm without knowing the exact OTF contents (could you perhaps somehow export the display of spool in RAW format and attach here?) but it would boil down to approximately following:
1) set the &first_page per PERNR = 1;
2) run through OTF lines until the &end_page for PERNR has been identified somehow (hopefully there are Begin/End Form OTF commands '//' in that spool... and they correspond to the split of spool you need...);
3) extract the otf contents from &first_page to the EP command of &end_page into separate OTF itab and, if necessary, add // (End of form) command at the end of itab;
4) call CONVERT_OTF on the table and download;
5) set the &first_page per PERNR = &end page + 1;
6) repeat from 2) until end of spool OTF data
Something like that... Depending how the Sapscript translates into OTF, you may also need to prepend a few commands found at the very beginning of the spool to each extracted invividual OTF document...
I Hope you can get the gist of what I'm suggesting... splitting OTF is definetly easier than trying to split PDF, I feel. It's not ideal solution, because - what if the structure of OTF contents you would be realying on changes for some reason..?
cheers

How could I get the pdf-file output to contain more than one page from certain homepages

2011-08-22
I have been using Firefox for many years now. I like this browser better than Safari. However. I have a problem when I have connected to a homepage over the web and want to write the content out to a pfd-file. The pdf-file does sometimes contain only one page. The material is good enough for two or more pages of output. I have checked that using Safari browser. I´d like to continue using Firefox so please tell med what to do!

How do I sync downloaded PDF files in iBooks between my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro?

I've combed the forums. I can't sync through iTunes. These PDF files don't show up. I've downloaded tech manuals for gear I have via manufacturer's websites. I can't populate them across my devices. I have some in iPhone, some on iPad. I have an iPhone 5, iPad2, and MacBook Pro running current software as of 11:22 AM 13 MAR 2014. Nothing has worked so far in the standard methods.
Help!

I agree in theory.
Apple is very protective of copy written material, but even I have shoe-horned copy written papers into iBooks by using copy & paste. This is the only reason I can see for the lack of user friendliness in iBooks.   You may have noticed that removing it from iTunes also removed the ability to edit any "get info" content - something I could do when books were within iTunes.
I like the ePub format.   I can produce a very nice looking book with pictures and it looks great in iBooks. If I produce it on my Mac and use ePub into iBooks, I can then sync to my devices that way.   For a really nice product this is a great option.
But.   I can send the same product to Kindle and keep it synced to all devices.   Or I can add to kindle from one of my other devices and get it to sync also.   Obviously I made my choice and it works.
If you find a route via iBooks, please publish.   Many other Apple users are frustrated by the lack of iBook flexibility since iOS 7 update.

HT4059 How do I attach a PDF file from iBooks to a private message on Facebook?

I am trying to send an attachment PDF via private message on FB and when I press attach file on the message only my iPhoto shows up with no option to retrieve the PDF that is currently in my iBooks .

From within the iOS mail app, the only files you have access to for attachment purposes are those located in the Photos app. The Gmail app I cannot respond to. To send a file in Dropbox, you will need to start in Dropbox and use the File function (box with an arrow).
If this is something you need to accomplish on a regular basis, you might wish to consider an alternate email app. Mailbox can handle attachments from Dropbox (but is limited to Gmail and iCloud mail). there may well be others that will handles this.
