I have downloaded some PDF files directly from online to my iBooks,and I want to transfer them to my PC. I have synced them with iTunes, but do not see those particular files. What do I need to do?”
Normally iTunes is the first choice to sync up iBooks files with computer, but a critical defect coming along is ebooks acquired from iBooks Store are usually encrypted with Apple’s DRM protection, thus you can’t read on non-iOS devices such as your Windows computer, and iTunes won’t automatically backup non-purchased books we downloaded online. Luckily, we find 2 available ways to transfer iBooks from iPhone Xs/Xs Max/XR/X/8/7/SE/6/6S/5/5S or iPad to computer without using iTunes.
File Browser's description says nothing whatsoever about being able to copy files from iPad to Mac, but rather the other way 'round. I want to copy from iPad to Mac. File Browser's description suggests all action is done on the iPad. That's not at all convenient: I want to be able to do this from a Finder-like interface of a Mac-based app.
Tips: To transfer purchased books from iPhone/iPad to computer, you can go to iTunes File > Devcies > Transfer Purchased.

Method 1: Export Books From iBooks to Computer by Email

- Open iBooks app on your iPhone or iPad, where you will see all your downloaded books displayed on the bookshelf.

- Choose Email option on the pop-up window and you will be navigated to email with a file attached.

- Not every book in iBooks can be exported
By this way you can transfer iBooks to PC free, but as you may notice, it’s very cumbersome and time-consuming. Suppose you have more than 100 books waiting to be exported to computer, even the thought of sending ePub/PDF files to email and download them on computer for 100+ times is enough to make you tired or spontaneously combust.
What’s more, it’s not an exception to find some books opening with no share icon, which means, you can’t use email to move iBooks from iPhone/iPad to PC in this case.
