Large pdf on an ipad

I have a large file (77 mb) that I'm trying to get to the ipad.  I've sync'd it using itunes but it opens it in ibook, with no choice of opening it in adobe.  I've tried doing an portfolio and a single pdf.
I originally created a portfolio, but when I open it in ibooks, it tells me that I should get adobe reader for Ipad.  I've got it!  Can't get it over there. 
I put it in my drobox and was able to open it in Goodreader, and with Goodreader, I was able to choose the open in adobe reader.   All of my "portfolio" stuff is gone, it's just one bit pdf.  No bookmarks, or other things.
I created it as single PDF with bookmarks, and set the properties to open with bookmarks.  With the Ibooks and the adobe PDF, I don't seem to be able to see the bookmarks.  With Goodreader, I was able to find the bookmarks.
This is a PDF/portfolio that we're going giving to a number of people with different technical skills.   How do I get them the best experience?
Help!

Can you please share the pdf(s) with us at [email protected] along with your description of the problem? I'd like to be able to better understand the bookmarks issue.
As for opening, you should be able to open the PDF directly from dropbox. Note that the "open in" dialog in dropbox is scrollable and that you may have to swipe the list to see the Adobe Reader. You should also be able to sync using itunes by using the method described in this thread:

  • Large PDF in Adobe Reader on my iPad

    I have a large PDF ( over 400 pages) but when I open in Adobe Reader on my iPad I can only get to the first 100 pages or so.  Am I doing something wrong?  Thanks for any help.*

    Is it possible to share the file? It's possible that the document is corrupted, but it's also always possible that there is a bug. If you can share the file I'd appreciate it!

  • I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader.

    I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader. I do not want to view them in iBooks or Quickoffice. Since I cannot email these large files, how can I get them on my iPad? Thanks for your help.

    I think that Adobe reader supports file sharing.
    Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under "devices". Click on the Apps Tab in the window on the right. Scroll down to the File Sharing Apps list under the main apps list. Click on Adobe Reader. Drag the documents into the file sharing window on the right or select them using the "add" button.
    Launch the Adobe reader app and the files should be in there.

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

  • Displaying large PDFs on iPad

    We are trying to use an iPad (4th gen) to display large PDFs.
    As part of the inspection process during the construction of a large building, I converted the CAD drawings into PDFs, and I want to download them to my iPad to have during the walk arounds.
    The PDFs are between 12 and 18 MB, and they open (with Evernote or just Safari) but as soon as I zoom in, the application closes.
    When I re-open I have to download the PDF again
    Suggestions will be appreciated

    I'm wondering if it is a memory issue.  Have you stopped all of the other processes that are running?  Also, is it possible to use a lower resolution on the pdf's? I regularly use 3-4 Mb pdf's but 12-18 is a pretty good size.  I open mine with Quick Office Pro HD. 

  • IPad 2 shuts down any app trying to open a large PDF (40mb)

    Hi,
    Im trying to get my IPad to display large PDF files from my PC (Windows 7 64bit).  Im using a combination of WD 2 go linked to my NAS (My Book Live with up to date firmware) and also Goodreader.
    Everytime I try and open the PDF file both apps close down.  Ive have this problem with the native PDF reader on the iPad, Ibooks and dropbox.
    Does the IPad have a limitation on the size of PDF than can be imported and displayed?
    My Iphone 4 does the same by the way.
    Any ideas??
    PS, I joined the apple support community in order to write this post - never had to do that before so Im at the point of giving up unless someone knows something I dont!

    Ok, first I should mention I may make $ if you click the link below and purchase items.
    The issue with most general PDFs reader/viewers is they assume you have a paper size of 8.5 by 11.5 inches and a few hundred pages. They are not designed to work with thousands of pages, say medical text books of 8,000 pages. Nor  do they work well if the page size is measured in meters or yard. They either crash or scrolling is so painful you give up.
    Dealing with thoses issues are hard, anyway I try to as my son who is an engineer complained no app could open his engineering drawings, and Dad can you fix that?

    How large? It could be limited by the RAM in your iPad.

  • Any ideas on how we could get any sort of shop stamp or other identifying mark onto our fillable pdf on an ipad.

    I am looking for any ideas on how we could get any sort of shop stamp or other identifying mark onto our fillable pdf on an ipad.
    The scenario is that when we do a job as opposed to our regular contract work, at a large nationwide retailer, their accounts people want the shop's stamp, as proof of the work being done.
    Currently the 'paper' service report is just stamped. For the regular contract work, whoever signs the service report just uses their finger to sign the report, on the iPad.
    On a PC the shop could just set up an electronic signature as their 'shop stamp', but the iPad is another story.
    I am having a vision of ink stamps all over the iPad screen. LoL
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Unlike the desktop version of Adobe Reader, Reader mobile products (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support stamp annotations yet.
    If you'd like, you can submit the Feature Request form.  The Product Management team will take your request into consideration for a future release of Adobe Reader for iOS.
    Thank you for the feedback!

  • Can't download large pdf file

    I'm trying to download a large pdf file (26.2 mb) to my iPad.  It appears to download, then appears, as 440 blank pages.  It offers to open the file in iBook, but that also doesn't have any results.  Is there a limit on the size of the pdf file it can handle?  I tried to e-mail it from my computer, but the file is too big for my e-mail program.  This is a book I would really love to read on the iPad--how can I get it there?  thanks, B.

    Yes, I see that as well. Talk about a bad assumption. I thought from what I had read that the feature worked like Spotlight on the Mac. In fact I could swear I've read that on Apple's site somewhere. Not the first time I was wrong and certainly not the last. Alas I stand corrected again.
    Frankly, after investigating the search function further - IMHO - it seems pretty useless.  A number of the apps that I use have their own search functions built in. I've read that you can search for a missing app on your iPad with this feature, but other than that and finding contacts and emails it seems pretty pointless to me.

  • I cannot open PDF files in IPad email attachments.

    Will I pad open PDF files? I get nothing when clicking on the document, but have read the iPad 2 will open PDFs without a 3rd party app. Please help.

    If they don't have digital rights management on them then you should be able to open them. If they are large PDFs you may have to wait a little while for them to finish downloading.
    If they still don't open then you could try closing the Mail app completely and then re-open and see if you can then open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Another option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Movies in pdf files on iPad

    If I make a interactive pdf with a movieclip (mp4) I can watch it on my mac but if I open the pdf on my iPad I just see the stillpicture where the movie is placed and I can not get it to play. How do I solve this?

    Actually, yes, you can get other videos onto your iPad. But it's tricky. YOu'd use the camera connection kit. And a SD card. Put the movie(s) onto the SD card, in the DCIM folder and name them appropriately...meaning 8 characters/numbers, all caps.
    MOV20012 for example.
    They also need to be in a format the iPad will play, mp4, etc.
    Plug that SD card into your iPad, the movies will show up, you choose the one to transfer over and then can play it out of iPhoto
    That said, the only movies i've done this with are ones I've made a copy of myself (as in made my own digital copy of dvds I own/things i've recorded off the tv.) I've not done it with iTunes movies or other downloaded movies because the DRM likely won't allow it. ANd you will need a large SD card because each movie will be a couple of gigs.
    Theoretically it's possible, but it takes about as long as it takes to watch teh movie to do it

  • Opening Large PDF attachments in e-mail?

    I can open a 100mb pdf with iBooks.

  • Safari crashes when opening a very large pdf

    I have a 1st generation ipad running 4.3.5.
    Everytime I try to download a very large pdf in Safari ie. 175+ megs in gets about three quarters of the way through then Safari crashes and loose my progress. I will then restart Safari and the process restarts and crashes again.
    I've set auto-lock to never but that didn't help. Any ideas how to get Safari to download this file.
    ps I've considered other methods of getting the pdf but for this project I have to download it from a web site.
    Thanks for any help.

    Other apps can download PDFs - I don't know whether it can cope with a 175 meg download, but GoodReader can download files : http://www.goodreader.net/gr-man-tr-web.html

    But generally it is never a good idea to send e-documents as email attachments.  Better use a file sharing service (Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, ..), upload the document, then send the shared download link via email.

  • Reading large PDFs

    Hey everyone.
    I'm trying to read a few rather large PDFs on my iPhone using FileMagnet, but after I get past page 6 or 7, FileMagnet informs me that there isn't enough memory to load the rest of the file.
    What can I do to view this, and other large PDFs, in my phone?

    There are more than one PDF reader available. Try the free Adobe Reader first. I'm giving you instructions for Reader, but it would be the same for another paid reader like PDF Expert, my favorite, $US 9.99:
    Connect your iPhone or iPad to your computer and go to iTunes. Select the device at the upper right:
    Once you've selected the device, click the Apps tab.
    But you need to scroll down to File Sharing below where you'll see a list of your apps and their data files. Select Adobe Reader (or the other PDF reader you're using).
    This shows all the PDF files and folders currently in your app. To add a new, large app, click the Add... button at the bottom and select it for your computer.
    Then click the Sync button to sync it to your device. It will appear in your app.
    There are other ways of getting (smaller) PDFs to your PDF reader: You can open them from an email or a browser, or transfer them through a service like Dropbox.
    When you download the current version of Adobe Reader 11.2, go to Help to look at a manual which explains other ways of transferring files.
    Good luck.
