PDF Books On Your iPhone

If you have a large collection of books in PDF format, and you would like to read them on your iPhone, but don't like the current PDF readers, this brief article will explain a great way to get your books on your iPhone.
1. Download Stanza on your iPhone
Stanza is an amazing book reader for the iPhone, it supports several formats (not pdf, but we will get to that), it is theme-able, and has several great features.  (including font sizes, colors, portrait/landscape, justification, line spacing, hypenation, and it is quite customizable).

2. Convert your PDF books into epub.
You need to get your PDF books into a better format for stanza.  I prefer epub.  I recommend using epub2go. It will allow you to upload the pdf book from your computer, and will email you the converted epub file.  The great thing about this method is in the next step.

3. Open the email from epub2go on your iphone, and if Stanza is installed, it will automatically pick the file up, and put it into your library.  That's all there is to it! Now you can read your PDF books in epub format with Stanza, a great free book reader on y our iPhone.
