Transferring+PDF+items+to+apps+on+the+iPad

Documents that need to be transferred to the iPad often come in a PDF format. Where to store these documents depends on how they will be used. PDF documents that will be read can be transferred to iBooks which has a PDF library shelf.

If text reading support is required, the transferring to ClaroPDF is recommended. ClaroPDF allows the reader to select text and have the iPads speak feature read it to them. It also has a tool bar for completing written work on the document.

If the PDF item will be completed digitally, (ie a worksheet) and no reading support is needed, TypeonPDF will work as a PDF annotator.

To access the transfer toolbar, open Safari and navigate to a website PDF. Once document is open, tap in the upper right hand corner. All app option that can handle a PDF transfer will appear. Select where you want to send the item by tapping on it. iPad will then transfer the document over to the the other app. This example is a PDF reading passage from eps.schoolspecialty.com. Notice that there are two "Open in" options. THe first one will take you to the app you used last on the iPad, the one furthest right will give you all options available on the iPad.
