Apple makes it easy to transfer PDF to iPad via iTunes, while no offering to backup PDF from iPad to PC/Mac. It is quite annoying, isn't it? Don't worry, man. Apple iTunes says no, but we say yes. This article is going to tell you how to transfer PDF from iPad to PC and Mac.
No matter you iPhone/iPad is jailbroken or not, you can use this method to backup all the PDFs on the devices to PC. Here I will use iFunbox which is my favorite iOS tool to manage the files on iOS. Please firstly download and install on your computer.
Connect your iPhone or iPad to PC, then start iFunbox on your desktop. After connected to your device, you will see the file list on right side of iFunbox. Click File Browser button and there is the iBooks option. Then, click on the iBooks list, you will see all the books including PDF files on your devices. Choose the PDF files to backup, drag or hold shift and click to choose files. Right click on the chosen files, and then select Copy to PC option, then select a folder on your PC to save those files.
Connect your iPhone or iPad to Mac, then start iTools for Mac. After connected to your device, there are several tabs on the iTools for Mac interface. Click Books button to see all your book. Choose the PDF files to backup, drag or hold shift and click to choose files. Right click on the chosen files, and then select Export option, then select a folder on your Mac to save those files.
