In my ideal world, I would like to sit in a comfy chair, hold an old HP calculator in one hand, and read its pdf manual from an iPad in the other hand. However, the (colour) pdf files for the manuals, tend to be too big to email onto an iPad. Any suggestions? Is it possible to access the museum's manuals online from an iPad?

Here are several options that I use:

1. Put the PDF files in the "Cloud". I use Microsoft OneDrive because my Office365 account at work provides 1TB of storage. Other options are Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.

2. I use the PDF Reader Pro app on my iPad. The application includes its own web server. When this server is enabled, I'm able to open its web site (192.168.1.xxx:5500) from my laptop. From there I can upload PDF files directly into the application's file system.

3. Connect your iPad to a PC via USB and use iTunes to copy the PDF files to your PDF reader's file system.
