iBookshelf Lite 2.12.4 has got a file sharing option, so I added the
above extracted archives by renamed PDFs (FreeBSD Handbook de.pdf,
FreeBSD Handbook en.pdf), but after sync they still are not available.
I renamed the files (bsdde.pdf, bsden.pdf), added them and synced again,
but they are still not available.
The PDFs can be opened by Linux. VBox, resp. iTunes has got access to
the files and sync between VBox and the iPad does work for other data.
However, it's OT for this list.
Anyway, thank you :)
Ralf
