How do you view PDFs?

[whistler222]

So say i have a bunch of PDF files i need for a meeting.. it's on my work desktop.

how do i get those on the ipad, so that i can carry that in, and view it while i'm in the meeting?

help?

I believe airsharing will let you do that.

Also look in to Good Reader.

Goodreader with dropbox to sync has been working well for me.

 

[whistler222]

fairly new to this.. sorry

Just get Goodreader and you will see how easy it is. It's only 99 cents. No need for drop box.

dropbox is just online storage. 2 gb for free. you can also use use goodreader via wifi to transfer files as well. dropbox lets you drag files into a folder on your pc or mac and it will sync them to their server. Goodreader will connect natively to dropbox and other storage sites.

if you buy goodreader for iphone, do u pay again for ipad?

if so, i guess i should just get it for ipad?

You can also add files directly in iTunes. Works great.

Just as an additional follow up Q:

so say i get pages. and i create a document.

can i save it somehow? and share it to dropbox?
or how do i get that pages document off my ipad?

Goodreader is very nice. You just drag and drop your PDF files in iTunes.
