Is there a way to download/view PDF files on the iPad without using another computer?

I just recently purchased the new iPad. I have also downloaded iBooks and a PDF reader. Is there any way to view and/or download PDF files from my iPad, without using an outside computer? Please help!

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
One way is to get the GoodReader app. It has a built in web browser that allows you to web surf and download pdfs into GoodReader. You can read them in the GoodReader app or open them in other apps that can read pdfs.

  • I have a password protected Numbers document I created on my MAC and share via DROPBOX. Is there any way to simply view this doc on my IPAD without purchasing NUMBERS for the IPAD?

    I use NUMBERS on my MAC to create a password protected document.  I share this doc via DROPBOX.  Is there any way I can view the doc on my IPAD without purchasing NUMBERS for the IPAD?  The doc opened fine on the IPAD before protecting it with a password.

    Using the term "opened" may have been incorrect on my part.  Before password protection, I simply viewed the doc by selecting it within my DROPBOX app.  No revisions could be made, but I could view the doc.    Now, with the doc password protected, the IPAD states this file can not be viewed.
    The IPAD users guide gives a list of files IPAD can view. Unfortunately, I find no info on how to open/view that file should it be protected. If

  • Is there a way to download a Flash file from the web?

    Hello all.
    I am just wondering if there is a way, similar to downloading QuickTime movies and trailers from the web (using the provided link or its URL) to download a flash file? i.e. a flash-made audio or video?
    Thanks and cheers

    OK!
    I use RealPlayer 11.0 beta for this:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/8428
    It automatically tells you if the file is downloadable.
    Works like a charm.
    Even in the West Country....

  • HT2513 Is there any way to sync between laptop, desktop, iPhone and iPad without using the iCloud?

    I want to sync my iCal between all my Apple products but this doesn't seem to be possible?
    It all used to sync with MobileMe, but I didn't upgrade, so it stopped syncing.
    If I use a 3-rd party calendar, say Google Calendars, in my iCal would that work?
    From what I can tell, I can sync from one machine to my iPhone via iTunes, but that's all...
    Thanks, Heather

    Because apps on iOS devices are isolated from one another ("sandboxed") such an app would not be possible.
    I recommend "SelfControl". It takes a little while to learn to use but it works on any platform.

    I have not tried that, but since JavaFX supports using Swing components I suggest Googling for PDF support for Swing. Swing has been around longer, so PDF support there is more likely.

    is there a way to download a text/imessage conversation from your iphone to your computer to print as a document?

    Yes. I do it regularly to archive my messages.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    I use PhoneView and save my texts as a nicely formatted PDF. But, there are other options.

  • Is there a way to download a folder or all the contents of a folder?

    Is there a way to download a folder or all the contents in a folder? I uploaded all the photos into my Creative Cloud but now I am out of the office and working on another computer so I need all those images so I can create a DVD Slide show for A&M. I need all the images, over 100 of them. Is there a way I can download this entire folder or at least all the images in the folder at one time? All I can find for download is to download each image separately one at a time. I can't even select them all and say download every image selected. I don't want to sit here for hours downloading one image at a time, that's just ridiculous.
    Help Please!

    Ken,
    Just wanted let you know the answer was not helpful but it was correct. Thank you for your time in answering me.

    3D communication is good but sometime we don't want the receiver to be able to study every components in model.
    or any way to make the receiver cannot use model tree and measurement tool ????
    Thank you very much

    You can remove the assembly tree by doing a roundtrip in 3D Toolkit, here's how:
    - start Acrobat 3D
    - drag & drop a CAD file
    - click on 3D Annot to activate
    - right-click on 3D
    - select 'Edit in 3D Toolkit'
    - 3D Toolkit launches
    - click in 'Scene Tree' panel
    - right-click on top assembly name
    - select 'Tools->Collapse Hierarchy'
    - select 'File->Save'
    - select 'File->Exit'

  • Is there a way to prevent a PDF file from being forwarded?

    is there a way to prevent a PDF file from being forwarded? For example, im a personal trainer and if i send a client a plan via PDF file, i want to make sure that they cannot send it to anyone else. I read about how you can secure a file by creating an ID and then having the recipient create an ID as well, but i would like to make the orocess as easy as possible for my clients and not have to have them create an ID and then send it to me. is there a better way to block the recipient from resending the PDF?

    Hi Kiana,
    As such there is no option to prevent the recipients from forwarding the pdf. However you can refer to this blog How do I prevent someone from forwarding a PDF?, it might be of some help.

    Is there a way to sort a PDF file with multiple pages by a specific field within the PDF? All pages have the same invoice format and i would like to sort by a field within and then print the documents. (Vendor, PO#, Date, ect.)

    When you say field, do you mean specifically a form field, such as a text field? Or is the information regular text on the page?

  • Is there any way we can save PDF files of 1.8v & 1.9v to 1.4v using plug-in?

    is there any way we can save PDF files of 1.8v & 1.9v to 1.4v using plug-in? (using PDDocSavePara )

    Something like this.
    Change VER variable to version number as you need. ex. VER = 7 -> PDF 1.7
    pdoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(avDoc);
    PDDocSaveParams saveParams;
    unsigned char buffer[sizeof(_t_PDDocSaveParams)];
    saveParams = (PDDocSaveParams)buffer;
    memset(saveParams, 0, sizeof(_t_PDDocSaveParams));
    saveParams->fileSys = ASGetDefaultFileSys();
    saveParams->major = 1;
    saveParams->minor = VER;  //change version here
    saveParams->saveFlags = PDSaveFull | PDSaveCollectGarbage | PDSaveForceIncremental | PDSaveKeepModDate;
    saveParams->size = sizeof (_t_PDDocSaveParams);
    saveParams->saveFlags2 = PDSaveUncompressed;
    PDDocSaveWithParams (pdoc, saveParams);

  • Hey, is there a way to put own PDF's into the iTunes U App?

    Our professors gave us several lecture-PDF's but my University isn't a member of iTunes U. Is there a way to put these PDF's in the app anyway, to use the note-feature etc.?

    Is there a way to edit a PDF file without converting it into a word document?

    Then you posted in the wrong forum...
    At any rate, you can use the Edit Text & Images tool (under Tools - Content Editing) to make changes to the file. You'll need to be a bit more specific about what you want to change if you want more detailed instructions.
