How to download ebooks

Downloading ebook files directly to an iPad tablet

Alternatively, ebooks can be downloaded directly via a wireless connection to an iPad on which the Bluefire Reader app has been installed.

Download Bluefire Reader (via iTunes).

When the download is activated from the ebook platform, you will see a prompt to open the .acsm control file in Bluefire Reader. Use this command to download the ebook file and open it. If the app has not already been authorized, you will be prompted to specify your Adobe ID. Once the file is downloaded, it will be available in the iPad's Bluefire folder.
