Interested in doing this either with kindle's native pdf reader or with a program from the forum
You can drop files on over SCP into the documents folder. I dont remmber the command to trigger the 'scan' after wards, but here is the command to launch the built in reader for documents, this should work for PDF:

Code:
lipc-set-prop com.lab126.appmgrd start app://com.lab126.booklet.reader/mnt/us/documents/Hunted_%20The%20Iron%20Druid%20Chronicles,%20Book%20Six_B00AUSCOIS.kfx
Note in this, that the naming schem is "url formatted" so be careful with spaces and other special characters
