How can I send a JWPUB file via WhatsApp or email?

[Br. Ice]

Some documents or publications are available in pdf, epub and jwpub.

 

When I download a Jwpub file that is on the login side of jw.org I haven't figured out how to send it to a brother or sister in such a way that they can open it in jwlibrary.

 

How can I send a document that is in a jwpub format to someone, so that they can open it in their jwlibrary?

I just attach it to the email. When the recipient opens the attachment it automatically imports the file into JWLibrary.

I have tried the "share link" option, but it just gives me a link that sends me to jw.org (as the link to attach).

Isn't that different than downloading the file and attaching it to an email?

[Br. Ice]

Yes, indeed. I have to find the file itself and attach it. Solved.

 

Thank you, Richard 👍🏽

I have found that attaching a file to an email or WhatsApp works much better than attaching one to a SMS text.

 

If the jwpub file does not automatically open in JWL a person may need to right-click it and choose JWL from the "Open with" menu selection

I iz not understanding this thread. Sorry I'm in a hurry to do a bible study.

I also sent a jwpub file on the same material and it opened ok. Sorry for disturbing. But I didn't like the jwpub file because it wasn't interactive so I switched to my trusty WOL. I don't really understand all these stuff about epub.

The link sharing is set by the receivers settings. This is to ensure that the one link works for everybody and it can either open in JW library or on JW.ORG
