Can I choose which app to open my books in?

I'm accessing the content server from my iPad and right now my ePubs are opening in iBooks - is there a way to open them in Marvin or another app of my choice?

The content server has no control over that, it only presents the download link, the rest is up to the browser/OS.

Download the book to the iPad from the Content Server, then use the Share/Export icon, and scroll through the available apps, and select the one you want to use.

Thanks; I figured it was something arbitrary.

I'm not seeing Marvin as an option. My workaround is to send it to Dropbox and, from there, send it wherever else I want it to go.

You should be able to add Marvin to that list. Scroll the list of apps to the left, and tap the 3 dots that says MORE, then tap EDIT at the the top right of the menu that comes up. Marvin should be listed there with the green toggle to add it.

This is what I’ve been doing and it’s not there. Neither is the Bluefire app or Gerty.
