Is there a way to upload pdf files to the My Library or any other location in Logos?
Nope.
Only major workaround is PDF > Microsoft Word > Personal Book (desktop only)
@DMB I don't understand the workaround!
Yes you do. Word imports pdf's. Thense PBs.
That I do know, but not something starting with PDF!
I'm confused.
Convert PDF files in MS Word and use Word format as the basis for a Personal Book.
@Willie Pankey I've linked the below YouTube video that explains the process. It helped me when I had this question, hope it helps you too:

I don't understand it either. But then again, I think you may have intended to @ a different DMB. Here's hoping Logos gets this tagging system figured out, so as to avoid continued errant tags! -DMB (a different one)
Thanks, SBG. I'll have to check it out.
Aside from intention, he did tag the right DMB, as you will see if you hover your cursor over the DMB in the quoted portion of his reply—the ID of this DMB (118382) is different from your ID (326339). The forum software is the problem, and Logos's plan for dealing with it is for one of you to change your profile name. Barring that, you'll keep getting tagged and …
(Now that I've tagged you, I wonder if the other DMB will be tagged as well 🤔)
I never see tags beyond the little blue ones reading a post. Blissfully unaware I guess.
You may get better mileage converting PDF to Word using Calibre.
Calibre? Interesting. I've never heard of it. I'll check it out.
I don't think that this is what you're looking for, but instead of converting a pdf document to personal books, I have a pdf folder in Favorites with links to my pdf documents. They open up outside of Logos, but it's quicker than converting them to personal books and I don't have to worry about errors.
Ronald, is this what you mean? I realized that you can simply drag and drop a PDF from my iCloud folder into a folder I created in "Favorites." And I was able to open them from there. I still need to organize them, but at least they're closer to Logos than they were. It would be great if you could tag or search them. Someday . . . Thanks to all for your suggestions!
Yes, that's exactly what I have done with my pdf documents.
The forum software is the problem, and Logos's plan for dealing with it is for one of you to change your profile name.
FYI, the forum software is produced and operated by a different company. We have reported this bug to them.
That's good. All I remember seeing before is the suggestion for one of them to change their profile name.
Yes, that would be a workaround in the meantime.

I am pretty new to using the tools in Logos. I want to conduct a word search within a particular book of the Bible to see if there is any theme or repetition. What is the best tool and how do you use it? Thanks for helping this "old dog, learn new tricks." RW
In my wish lists, items that appear on sale aren't really on sale at all. Sometimes I see savings of 75% or even 92% and most of the time when I click on them they are not on sale at all. Can someone fix this as it is rather annoying as I go back and forth to and from my Wish List only to find nothing is really on sale as…
I am trying to locate a Chronological NASB Bible within LOGOS
Asking once more whether we can have tables in Logos (in notes or as a separate type of doc or better, both). Is there any plan to get this basic functionality into Logos any time soon? What an ongoing frustration it is not to be able to record user study data in even just basic rows and columns!
The Lenten Triodion (with The Lenten Triodion Supplement) is more precious to me than I have words to convey. It is a spiritual treasure that I pore over and pray through very nearly cover to cover every year during Lent and Holy Week, and the 4 Sundays leading up to Lent. Because I love it so dearly, it sort of hurts my…
