Downloading PDFS


Customer Service


HEllo I was curious how many downloads do we get of a purchased PDF? in this case when the APG is shiped i understand i'll get a PDF i can download.

The reason i ask is I have an IPAD and would like to read the PDF on it but if i can only make one d/l imight need to decide if i want the PDf on my computer r the IPAd

secondly, IF i do d/l it to the computer is Itunes likely to have any problems transfering it to the IPAD.

Currently this will be my furst purchased material directly from Paizo and i have just gotten the few Free PDFS which were easly transfered to the ipad.

anyhow hopefully this makes sense.

If I am correct there is no limit to the number of times you can down load a PDF, but not an official source so don't quote me on that =). Sometimes the PDF will get updated with new information and they usually will send you an email tell you to repersonalize and re download the new PDF. Don't have an Ipad so can't help you with that.

Any Paizo PDF you purchase will be available for download as many times as you wish for as long as Paizo exists, which hopefully means until the Sun dies and our race becomes extinct.

I would say "any PDFs purchased at Paizo.com", but a certain PDF pullout action by a certain industry-leading company prevents me from making such far-reaching assumptions. :)


Oh excellent. really i would rather Download it t my computer than directly in the ipad where it would exist in a vacumness nothing mostly.

Slightly off topic but connected to my pre-orer a few people in the APG thread have reported reciving an Email which i assume is related to the PRe-order but as this is my first one it snot fully clear oto me.

Should i have recived some sort of email? i know it hasnt been sent yet which is the confusing part :P

That's probably subscribers to the RPG line who have received their notice that their subscription will ship in the next week or so. If you've placed a regular preorder, you'll just get a shipping confirmation email when your copy goes out.


Woops sorry when this shot down the list i started a Trhead specifically asking the question. Cosmos answered it for me.

I would also note that if you're not a subscriber (and your status seems to indicate you're not), then you won't get a free PDF, but will need to purchase it seperately on or after the 5th.

Actually he is a subscriber. The tags only show up for the primary alias.


I couldnt figure out how to change the name of the primary Alias. Still cant seem to get the Avatar pic to show for this one. Though may likely give up soon and just use the origonal :P

Once you pass 10 (I think) posts, the primary name is set and can't be changed.
