    happy saturdays folks...

    does anyone know if and how you can create a html link that will add a pdf file to ibooks on iOS

    i want users to be able to click on the link and rather than the pdf opening it offers them the option to just add and save it to ibooks.

    i know it is a relatively easy process to do it manually - but for the less tech savvy people it'd be a lot less hassle.

    is it possible? anyone done this before?

    I say it's not possible, it requires user interaction, because in the process of opening the pdf in ibooks, you are saving the pdf to his harddrive/cloud...would be a security risk if possible.

    • maybe a epub file could work...as they can't be read by mobile safari, they would trigger ibook.uan
    • ah... maybe i'll give that whirl... thanks uan - appreciate your help ;-)wwfc
