When I wait in the bus stop, lie in bed for sleepiness or so, iPhoneis definitely a good company to kill time. As an eBook lover, iPhone tome is more an eBook reader that can be used to call than a Phone thatcan serve as an eBook reader.
I've got a large collection of eBooks inPDF and EPUB in my computer, and I'm used to transferring them to myiPhone to read.
I'll talk about two ways to read PDF on iPhone below.
Transfer PDF to iPhone
There are quite a few apps which help facilitate eBook reading on iPhoneor other devices like iPod Touch and iPad. iBooks and iTunes are basictwo apps I always turn to.
I use iTunes to transfer PDF to iPhone andiBooks to organize my eBook collections and read them on iPhone.
The transfer can be done within 3 steps:
1. Drag and drop PDFs from desktop to iTunes library;
2. Connect iPhone to the computer;
3. Choose the iPhone in the source list under Devices, choose the books you want to sync, and click Sync button.
Thumbnail view, built-in search, eBook covers, etc, thesefeatures iBooks provides helps me find the book I want as soon aspossible. Additionally, I can categorize and rate my eBook collectionsjust like what I do to music collections.
It's a pleasant experience touse iBooks anyway.
Tips:
The release of iBooks 1. 1 makesiPhone more compatible with PDF, which makes people can read PDFdirectly on iPhone. Sound good, right? However, you need to update youriPhone to iOS
4. 0, because iBooks 1. 1 requires iOS
4. 0.
Read PDF on iPhone
Personally, I prefer to read eBooks in EPUB. My preferenceis purely out of practicability. EPUB is a more flexible format foreBook readers, as it displays text in an optimized way for particulardevices.
I don't have to scroll up and down or left and right on iPhoneto view the oversized eBook which is only suitable for computer viewing. EPUB knows my iPhone screen size and adjusts itself for me. How sweet! I want all my eBooks in EPUB format, even though a large percentage ofthem are in PDF. After some Google searching, I found a PDF to EPUB Converter could help.
I bet you can't believe the conversion is as easy as thetransfer.
You just do the drag and drop, and a click of charm on Convertbutton. Suddenly, all of my PDF eBooks have their EPUB copies.
Theresult really satisfies me. EPUBs! Not PDFs anymore! After that, all Ihave to do is to move on to the next regular step
