Syncing books and PDFs

Use iTunes to sync your books and PDFs between iPad and your computer, and to buy books from the iTunes Store. When iPad is connected to your computer, the Books pane lets you select which items to sync. You can also add DRM-free ePub books and PDFs to your iTunes library. Books in PDF and ePub format are available on the web.

Sync a book or PDF to iPad: In iTunes on your computer, choose File > Add to Library and select a .pdf, .epub, or .ibooks file. Connect iPad to your computer and sync.

To add a book or PDF to iBooks without syncing, email the file to yourself from your computer. Open the email message on iPad, then touch and hold the attachment and choose “Open in iBooks” from the menu that appears.
