The first 2 gigs of space is absolutely free and there are ways people can increase that free space by getting referrals and stuff; more info on Dropbox site. You can also buy 100 GB for something like $10 / month. On Jan 7, 2013, at 5:24 PM, Eugenia Firth gigifi...@me.com wrote: Hi there

I installed Dropbox quite some time ago so don't remember specifics. I think it started out something funky but somewhere in the initial run, you need to be able to set up your account and login stuff. Once that is done, just go into Menu Extras and VO over to the Dropbox menu and press

Hi there Another quick way to get PDF files into your iPhone is to email it to yourself. Then when your iPhone picks it up it will ask you if you want to open it in iBooks. Of course you choose yes. It works quite fine. Regards Gigi Sent from my iPhone On Jan 6, 2013, at 4:28 PM, Anne

Yet even another way is to use Dropbox. With that setup, you can just copy the PDF or Epub formatted file, for that matter to the desired folder within the Dropbox folder on the computer and then fire up the Dropbox app on your iPhone and access the file. It will give you the choice to put it

Hi, to read a pdf on a Mac you could also use Quicklook. Then you can at least hear the contents. Just press Space on a pdf file and let VO read. Unfortunately it's not possible to navigate propperly but it's better then nothing. All the best Jürgen Am 07.01.2013 um 20:49 schrieb Steve Holmes

Hi there. I just tested PDFpen Pro with the iPhone User Guide. You can use it to read straight through a PDF file like I just did. It is supposed to be a great editing program, if you're sighted, of course. We have discussed this issue before on this list. I have kept PDFpen Pro on my

Absolutely the iPhone is definitely the best PDF reader around far as I'm concerned. It's even better than Windows computers for doing that. You just love the things and iBooks and go. I have several PDF files in iBooks. I have files like restaurant menus that I got off the web. There is PDFpen
