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 find DRM-free ePub books and PDFs on the web and add them
to your iTunes library.
Sync a book or PDF to iPad: In iTunes on your computer, choose File > Add to Library and select
the file. Then sync.
Add a book or PDF to iBooks without syncing: If the book or PDF isn’t too large, email it
to yourself from your computer. Open the email message on iPad, then touch and hold the
attachment and choose “Open in iBooks.”

AirPrint printer.

iBooks settings

iBooks stores your purchases, collections, bookmarks, notes, and current page information in
iCloud, so you can read books seamlessly across all your iOS devices. iBooks saves information
about all of your books when you open or quit the app. Information about individual books is
also saved when you open or close the book.
Turn syncing on or off: Go to Settings > iBooks. You can sync bookmarks and collections.

Some books might access video or audio that’s stored on the web. If iPad has a cellular data
connection, playing these files may incur carrier charges.
Turn online content access on or off: Go to Settings > iBooks > Online Content.
Change the direction the page turns when you tap the left margin: Go to Settings > iBooks >
Both Margins Advance.
