How to Put eBooks on Your Ipad?

While I strongly feel that the love for the good old paperback will never leave us word lovers, I do concur that the Ipad does have it's valid place in itself.


If you want to put a book on an iPad, you have a few options. eBooks come in several formats and depending on the format of your book, you will find one of the following methods suitable.

Steps

ePub Format 

ePubs are the open format that the Apple iBook and several other electronic book sellers support.
  1. Put the iBook application on your iPad. This application is available for free in the App Store.
  2. From iTunes on your computer, import the ePub file. Do this in iTunes by selecting File and the Add to Library.
  3. Sync the iPad to your computer. You may need to manually check the book name in iTunes to sync onto your computer from the Books tab.
Kindle Format 

Amazon Kindle format is a closed format which is only supported by Amazon products.
  1. Put the Kindle app on your Ipad. You can obtain this application from the App Store.
  2. Purchase a Kindle formatted book on Amazon.com on your computer, or directly into the iPad. If necessary, log into your Amazon account. Head to "Manage My Kindle" and direct the ebook to appear in your iPad's Kindle.
PDF Format 

  1. Download one of the many available PDF readers from the App Store.
  2. Follow the directions for that specific PDF reader to read books on your iPad.
