Print/Email PDF in iBooks

So, here is what the support page for iOS 4.2 & iBooks says I can do:
Printing or Emailing a PDF
You can use iBooks to send a copy of a PDF via email, or to print all or a portion of the PDF to a supported printer.
Email a PDF: Open the PDF, then tap and choose Email Document. A new message appears with the PDF attached. When you finish addressing and writing your message, tap Send.
Print a PDF: Open the PDF, then tap and choose Print. Select a printer and the page range and number of copies, then tap Print. For more information, see “Printing” on page 44.
You can only email or print PDFs. These options aren’t available for ePub books.
However, I don't ever see the icon to actually do this. Does this functionally exist or is it just talked about? Is there supposed to be an iBooks update in the App store that I don't see? I'm just really confused, but could really use this functionality.

I've been trying to figure this one out too. Checking out the fine print on AirPrint is what crushed my hopes of using this feature. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356 Aparently printing only works with an AirPrint supported printer. AirPrint also requires the latest iTunes update. So if you do own one of the printers on the aparenly short list of HP printers try updating your iTunes, otherwise just curse Apple for being fraught with propriety, money grubbing, BS. Then go buy one of the third party apps for printing, something that should be standard issue, especially for a device like the iPad.

  • Adobe reader X prints email PDF attachments as english then oriental

    Using Windows XP, IE 8, Adobe Reader X and HP Laserjet 4000 printer.
    Sometimes when I print email PDF attachments from Office Outlook 2003, the attachments start printing in English and then subsequent pages turn into an oriental language (not sure which one). If I view the attachment prior to printing all the pages are clearly in English. Other times if I print the item and it is okay (in English), if I reprint it, it may start in English and then goes to the other language.
    I have not incurred anything like this in any other printing program that I use such as Word or Excel.
    I have no idea why this is happenning. Any ideas what causes this and if so how to correct this?

    Solved it!
    1-go to "edit", select Preferences.
    2-select from the left pane: Security (enhanced)
    3-click on "add folder path" button just below the big white box
    4-pick a folder of your choice and click "ok". (your selected folder path will appear in that white box above the "add folder path" button in step 3)
    5-if you want to add additional folders, just repeat steps 3 & 4
    6-once you are done, click "ok" on the preferences screen and click "ok" again to accept the changes.
    Yes, it seems illogical, but it worked.
    I tested by closing the Reader (X), then surfed the web and did what Neher5 was explaining he/she wanted to do just after opening a pdf from a website and lo-and-behold,  it worked!. No more "save to temp folder" issues.
    Hope this helps.

  • Email pdf from iBooks isn't always possible

    I have copied some pdfs from my computer to iPad when I synced. They are pdfs I made myself from Keynote presentations. When I open the files in iBooks, I can see the little arrow icon for export. When I tap it, there are usually 2 options, print and email. However sometimes the email option doesn't appear. I have made all the files in the same way so I don't understand why some files can be emailed and others can't.
    Is anyone else having this problem.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you.

    I think I just figured this out myself.
    The option doesn't appear when the file is too big to email!

  • HT204365 can not email pdf from ibooks

    I have an 88 pg PDF presentation saved in ibooks, when I tap the arrow only the "print" option appears. I have email option on every other PDF file in ibooks. Any idea why it doesn't work for this single file?

    Firefox 19 introduced a new PDF Viewer that doesn't have all of the features of the Adobe plugin. To see whether that is causing your problem, check out this article and let us know whether it helps: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].

  • Opening emailed PDFs in iBook gets stuck

    When I am sent a PDF file attachment and I open it into iBooks I have to push the home button to get out of iBook. Then when I go to me email again up comes the PDF file again and I have not been able to escape from that file to read other email messages. How do I do this? I keep thinking I should be able to tap the upper left corner to bring up an escape button but cat find one.

    That happens not infrequently. Try:
    - force quitting the mail app
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then
    press and hold the Home button until the application you were using quits.
    - Reset the iPad if the above does not work
    Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the
    Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Delayed email using email printer (with PDF)

    My objective is to send emails using email's printer.
    Firstly, I had created one printer (EMAIL-PDF) at transaction SPAD, with:
       Device Type : PDF1
       Device Class: Standart Printer
       Access Method: M
    As the node SMTP was already configurated at transaction SCOT, I tried to send some email,
    printing some lists to this printer. As I received no email at my Outlook, I continued my
    research. After hours I received some emails of my firsts tests. Very strange, but this showed me that the configuration of SCOT was correct.
    Then I saw, at transaction SOST, all email that I had been generated by my printings, but
    it was scheduled for two hours after the moment I generated them.
    I would like to know why this happened and what can I do to correct this ?
    Ricardo

    My send job is schedule to run every 15 minutes.
    See an example:
    [08:00] I made a printing to a email printer
    [08:00] I go to the transaction SOST and I can see my request on send queue, but it schedules to 10:00.
    Look the message of the request: Will be sent after 23.02.2007 10:00:00
    It isn't work if I run the "send job" often, because the request is schedule to run two hours later.
    Until now, the only way that to the process works fine is change send time manually, at SOST.
    But if I send an email by Business Workplace (transaction SO02), the email is schedule to send right now.
    I can't understand the two hours later only for email generated by printing.

  • HT204365 How to email pdf files from iBook in iPad?

    Why I can only see "print" but no "email" button when i open my pdf files in iBooks? As far as i know i should be able to email my pdf files from ibooks right?

    Yes you should be able to email a PDF from iBooks. When you tap the arrow in the upper left the option should appear.
    Maybe some basic troubleshooting steps will help.
    Quit the iBooks app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or .... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    You may want to consider deleting the app and reinstalling. Tap and hold down on the app icon until it jiggles, then tap the X on the icon. Tap the home button to stop the apps from jiggling. Download iBooks again.

  • Function module to fetch pdf file from App. Server and print/email?

    Hi all,
    Is there any function module to fetch a PDF file from APPLICATION SERVER and print the PDF file or send it as an attachment in an email?
    Please help..
    Thanks in advance.
    Sandeep.

    Hi Sandeep,
    Is there any function module to fetch a PDF file from APPLICATION SERVER
    1) As far as i know there are no FMs to read a file from App server, you can do the same using *OPEN/READ/CLOSE dataset ABAP statements - There are tons of examples for this on the net.
    and print the PDF file or send it as an attachment in an email?
    You can send the file read from the app server(by the suggested method above) and use CL_BCS to send it as an attachment.
    Again there are many examples on the net on how to use CL_BCS for the same.
    Regards,

  • Why can I not print a PDF from an email?

    Why can I not print a PDF from an email any longer?

    Can you explain in better detail?
    Is it when you open the file attachment and attempt to Print?
    Is it right-mouse clicking and attempting to Print?
    Is it when you print the email itself and expect the attachment to Print?

  • Print to pdf and then email...

    I frequently print a document to pdf and then email it as an attachment.  The print dialog box allows me to save as pdf or email as pdf.  I would like a print plugin that does both actions - allows me to name and save the pdf to a specified location and then adds it as an attachment to a new email.  Any ideas?

    Create a Print Plug in Automator, such as the below, which does exactly as you want. When you set it up, make sure you click the Options that I clicked and this will allow you to name the PDF, and save it wherever you want to.
    I named my Print Plugin "PDF File & Email"

  • Can I print a pdf file from an email on an HP printer Deskjet 5100?

    Can I print a pdf file received through Email on an HP Deskjet 5100 printer and how?

    Save the file to your hard drive, open it in Adobe Reader and print.  Unless the file has security restrictions against printing, those steps should work.

  • I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get the error message that adobe could not

    I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get an adobe error message that it can not print with an ok to check and when i do I get another adobe error message that says I did not select a page to print. I have downloaded the latest adobe download.  I forwarded the email to my husband and he printed the document just fine.

    This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
    For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

    Ps: which jdev version do you use?

  • Email printed to PDF, PDF appears accurate in Acrobat XI Pro, when PDF printed to paper text missing

    HELP!!!
    I have text disappear from Outlook emails printed to PDF when I print the PDF files from Acrobat XI Pro to a printer.
    Here is a sample png from the PDF file printed out of Outlook - all the text is showing.
    However when I print the PDF from Acrobat to a printer, the document comes out of the printer with text missing as shown:
    The Acrobat print window shows all of the text that should be there as does Acrobat's view of the document.
    Also, if I save the file to an image, all of the text is there.
    I have tried different emails as well as different printers and the paper printed copies of the PDF emails are always missing text.
    Additionally I have tried coverting the PDF file to a PDF/A file and printing that and the same problems occur.
    Please send some tips as to how I can fix this!

    Hello Atul -
    i am having similar printing issues with Acrobat 10.1.4.
    in my case both PDFs made by me (from InDesign files) and other PDFs made elsewhere and sent to me are missing text when printed to paper -though they look fine both on-screen and in the preview pane, as Katy noted above.
    these PDFs print fine when i open and print from an older version of Acrobat (9.5.2).
    they will also print fine from 10.1.4 if i send them to another printer in the office, (a Dell Color Laser 3110cn), the printer i have a problem with is a Kyocera Mita KM-5053 - which leads me to believe that this is some kind of communication error between Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.4 and this printer, or perhaps a driver issue. ?
    I don't believe it's merely a preferences/print settings problem as i've gone pretty carefully through all the dialog boxes that seem relevant and have had no luck in solving the problem. Also, the text that's missing seems arbitraty - meaning, it's not merely hyperlinks or certain layers or text in specific type faces that won't print -it's content in the same text box, where other text does print, and it's blacks and colors and various point sizes - in short there are no easily discernable unifying circumstances among the text that does not print.
    obvioulsy an easy work around is to just print to the other printer or use the older version of Acrobat, but my concern is more that other people may be experiencing the same issues with PDFs i send them. so if it is a problem in the way i'm generating PDFs (although, as i said, text is also missing from PDFs i have received from other people and printed) i'd like to fix it quickly, so that people trying to print my PDFs don't end up with critical content missing.
    i'm on a 2008 MacBook Pro running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5, and using the Acrobat (X Pro v 10.1.4) that came with the CS6 Design & Web Premium package - although i'm looking at it online now and it's listed as Acrobat XI Pro..
    any input you have would be much appreciated.
    thank you,

  • How to attach a PDF from Ibooks to a current email - help  !

    Hello,
    I am using an Ipad mini and can't figure something out.
    I have a long email and would like to attach a PDF file to my latest response. The PDF is currently in my IBooks.
    I know I can send the PDF in a new/clean email, but the point is that I would like to be able to attach it to the current email. I can insert a photo or a video but there doesnt seem to be a way to insert a PDF file.
    I tried to open the PDF up in a new mail, cut it, then paste it into the existing email, but even that doesn't seem to work - I checked my sent box and there was no attachment on the mail when I tried it that way. The only way around the problem I can think of is to create the new email with the attachment, save it as a draft, go back into the original mail, copy it, go back into drafts and paste the existing text around my attachment - but this is a ridiculous and time-consuming process and not really practical.
    Can anyone kindly advise? I think there will be an easy solution, but I just dont see it yet -
    Thanks, M

    There is no way to do what you are trying to do. You have to send the email and the pdf from iBooks.
    Open the PDF in iBooks then tap the arrow icon in the upper left corner and select Email. Copy and paste the entire lengthy email into this new email in iBooks and send it that way, its clunky, but it is really the only way to accomplish what you want to accomplish using an iPad and the mail app. You can cancel the email in the iBooks app and it will allow you to save the draft and you can go back to using the mail app to send it, or just send the email from iBooks.
    The mail app will only allow you to insert photos and videos as attachments.
