Amazon’s Kindle e-Reader does a great job of displaying eBooks — including your own personal PDFs, if you are using a Kindle 2 or Kindle DX. The only problem is finding out how to copy a PDF from your computer to the Kindle. (And few things are more frustrating than having an e-Reader that doesn’t read your own documents!) Luckily, it only takes a few easy steps to move a PDF file from your PC or Mac to your Kindle.
Option #1 Transfer PDF files to iPad or Android phone via USB cable; Option #2 Sync PDFs converted from Kindle books from Mac to iPad via Airdrop, iTunes, iCloud, for Android users, use cloud storage service accordingly; Option #3 Send the PDF files from your computer to your email box, then open on your mobile device.
If you have an older Kindle, you can still read the text from PDFs on your e-Reader — after you convert them. Amazon will do this for a small fee, or you can look for freeware utilities online. For newer Kindles, you may still want to convert the PDF so that you can take advantage of the Kindle’s text manipulation features (like increasing/decreasing font size).
