Video: How To Use GoodReader On The iPad To Go Paperless

GoodReaderI was recently asked what I use to view/manage/work with PDFs on the iPad. At the moment, I use GoodReader. It comes in an iPad and an iPhone version.

GoodReader is way more than a PDF application. I tend to think of it as a file system for iOS, with connections to all sorts of online services.

In this video, I take you through a few ways that I use GoodReader. It is my first iOS video, and it is a bit longer than normal, so let me know what you think.

View the video below, or click here to watch it on YouTube. If you are able to, I recommend that you watch it with HD turned on.

This video on going paperless with GoodReader on the iPad is part of a series of quick videos on paperless tips and topics. View more in the series here.

Is there a way to change the view of a document in GoodReader for page by page viewing? And can you change the font size in GoodReader for the document you are viewing.

Hi. Is there a way to export iPad files directly onto a USB drive (maybe through the Camera Connector Kit)? I'm not crazy about using online systems like DropBox. Thank you.
