It would be even better if the book was accessible to voiceover. I have a low vision Mac user who would like this book very much.

exporting via Preview seems to inflate file a lot (12MB->120MB). However, good news, after upgrading to iOS5 the original pdf seems to work without any problems.

Uh ….
That new link provided by Mr. Kawasaki’s G+ comments results in a “GoogleDocs” page stating the following: ITEM NOT FOUND ….

Is this a joke?

That’s what I’m saying.

I have this iPad 2 app > http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/downloads-for-ipad-download/id380641055?mt=8&ls=1 > $3
With it, I download anything *flawlessly*.

When I try this link for “The Macintosh Way” PDF in the app, it downloads 200+ BLANK pages.

I can download ANY other PDFs easily, like these for example > http://pdf.textfiles.com/zines/CGW/ & the app has a OPEN IN iBOOKS button that does just that.
But this link here, as I say, wastes preciou$ 3G bandwith downloading a 200+ page BLANK DOCUMENT.

Downloading it with a so-called “real computer”, opening it in another app, transferring it via iTUNES > BOOKS or emailing it whatever, etc., etc. is IRRELEVANT.

Like I say, EVERY OTHER PDF I download works PERFECTLY, but not this one ….

Fix it, Mr. K — of all people, an Apple guy should know the signifigance of this.

OK if you’re having problems reading this, re-save it on your Mac like export it again in Preview then bring that PDF to the iPad by syncing, it will load in iBooks under PDF not under iBooks.

Tried the email. Downloaded it on my computer. Sent it in email. Opened in mail and still didn’t work. Looks like there is a problem with the file and reading it on the iPad. Maybe there will be a solution.

I have found that, on the iPad 2, downloads can only be done from the Mail app, not from Safari.
