Ibooks alternative to read PDf's in iPhone 3g?

Hi there,
I understand the iphone 3g cannot download the latest version of ibooks as it is for ios5. I don't have an older version of ibooks I can use, to put on my old iphone, so unfortunately this is not an option.
I also see alot of alternative apps no longer work for 4.2.1 either, for the same reason. (kobo, kindle etc)
So.....I was wondering if 1) anyone knows of an app that will allow me to read PDF's on my old iphone 3g and can be downloaded from the app store?
2) a way to view and organise .pnf files on my iphone 3g instead?
I wanted to use my old iphone 3g at the gym for music and using (.pnf or .pdf I have same fil) files that have all my work outs on them. I have about 80 pdf's that I wanted to file into sub folders, that I use from week to week. I can do this with all my PDF recipes in ibooks I am using on my ipad. Hopefully I can do the same!
Thanks for your help!

Thanks...So annoying. I have over 80 files.
I will keep hunting and see how I go.
Thanks for your help! ANy other help would be great

My email don't read pdf files in iphone 5 s - HELP

my email don't read pdf files in iphone 5 s - HELP

Yup, restarted my system. First thing I did was open Firefox and try to open a .pdf.
There isn't an Acrobat icon in my system tray, and it's not showing up in my task manager, so is there another way of seeing if it's open?

What's the best way of reading PDF books in iPhone? Please, name software.

Hey all,
I have a PC but a friend of mine has MAC, and we're both looking for best way to view pdf documents, but not through e-mail savings. Can you please help us, by naming any good APP or anything like that.
Thanks for the answer,
Mari!

If the app store is not available then no one can recommend an app to read PDFs except as email attachments.

Reading pdfs on an iphone

does anyone know of any iphone apps that allow you to both view a PDF on your phone AND get specific information about the dimensions of that PDF on your phone (such as the width and height of the PDF)?

I just have a Folder in mail called Documents and get everyone to mail/forward me the *.pdf and *.doc files etc.. that i want to read and stick them in that folder for easy referencing, which means they are stored on the iPhone and easily accessible whenevr i want them. It also means i can easily forward them on as well which you can't necessarily do with an app.

HT5557 How to set Night mode on Ipad Mini iBooks apps when reading PDF file?

How to set Night mode in iBooks (ver 3.1) for iPad Mini?

It's not available within the iBooks app for PDFs, the closest you can get is to the Invert Colours accessibility option (though pictures will appear negative) - you can set Settings > General > Accessbility > Triple-Click Home to 'Invert Colours', which means that you can then use a triple-click of the home button to go to white text on a black background.

Increasing Font Size for Reading pdfs

Is there a way to boost the font size (beyond the double-tap) for reading pdfs on the iphone? Something like setting the font size for email perhaps?
Thanks.

This is only slightly true. You can zoom in a little when viewing a PDF, but soon you reach some iPhone limit and the page gets larger as you exapnd, but then when you release it drops back. Unlike with Safari on a web page where you can make it as big as you want (well at least really really big).
This is VERY annoying (I think I'll submit a bug about it actually) as I can't get the text big enough to easily read it. Why is there a limit in the first place?

IBooks alternative app for reading PDFs

Now that iOS 7 successfully killed reading PDFs on iPad, is the a real alternative to reading user-generated PDFs on the iPad?

I never had a problem reading PDFs on my iPad until I “upgraded” to iOS 7. Thank you for pointing me to Adobe PDF Reader. It works very well. The only thing is that PDFs have to be uploaded (or ADDED) to the app, through the APP tab in iTunes when your device is connected, and then Sync-ed. Whereas before I would just drag PDFs into the Books window of iTunes and they would automatically be read into iBooks.
This is only an issue for user generated PDFs (even though i'm using Preview of Adobe Acrobat Pro [9.5.5] in OS 10.8.4). Web or commercially downloadable PDFs continue to work in iBooks.

PDF Reader on iPad and iPhone

Why isn't there an iPad and iPhone app to read PDFs that I have stored on iCloud Drive?

Has the PDF document sent to your iPad 4 and iPhone 5s via email and opened in Apple Mail? Apple Mail on iOS has known bugs with attachments (not just PDF documents).
Please take a look at Problem #1: Some PDF attachments opened in Apple Mail on iOS are corrupted or damaged in the following document.
How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems
Alternatively, you can take the original PDF document (without damage) on your Windows/Mac computer and uploaded via a cloud storage service (e.g. Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive) and download it to your iOS device.

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.

IBooks will not sync PDF collections with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but not the content?

My IBooks will not sync PDF content with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but no content. Both devices are set to sync collections? Any ideas how to fix this?

The 'sync collections' setting does not copy books or PDFs between devices - all it does is if you have the book on both devices and you move it into a collection on one of them, then it will be put into the same collection on the other device.
You will need to sync each PDF that you want on your phone. If you don't currently have them on your computer then connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and if using a Mac with Mavericks on it do File > Move Books From iTunes in the iBooks app on it, and you can then sync them to your iPhone.

IPad no longer reads PDFs from iWeb site like it did in mid April offering to read PDF in iBooks.

Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

When I use iBooks in Maverick, why can't I open and read .PDFs as I can on my IOS devices?

I keep getting an error message that says, 'The application "Adobe Reader" can't be opened. -10810' But I've downloaded a variety of .PDFs on my iPhone and iPad and they open and work fine in iBooks.

I has this same problem until I:
opened iTunes
Selected "Books" in the "LIBRARY" section
At this point iTunes posted a message similar to: "Your books have moved...".
I went back to the iBooks app and, presto, I could now open all my PDFs. I went back to iTunes and the "Books" item no longer appeared in the "LIBRARY" section on iTunes. Gotta love quality software engineering!!

How to read PDF files on your iphone in book format

Hey everyone, I just posted a tutorial on how to read pdf files like ebooks on Stanza. Let me know if you have any questions
http://budurl.com/u4tz
That used to drive me crazy until I figured it out. Enjoy

an easier way would be to wait until iOS 4 and then download the free iBooks app... you can import via the file sharing feature in iTunes (same that the iPad uses), or open the file from an email using the "open in" feature currently found on the iPad...

^ scroll down to the iphone with the subheading underneath saying "See what’s attached."

Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
Please help.

thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.
