reMarkable Paper Pro Move · Guides
Get documents onto the reMarkable Paper Pro Move
The desktop app, the mobile app, email and cloud integrations for moving PDFs and EPUBs to the Paper Pro Move — plus how a 7.3-inch page changes the way you should prepare PDFs.
The Move has no USB file mode — documents come in through the reMarkable apps, email, or cloud links, and sync over Wi-Fi. The mobile app suits it best, since it is a device you carry. The one extra habit worth forming is trimming or resizing PDFs before you send them: a full-size page is cramped on a 7.3-inch screen, and a minute of preparation makes a document properly readable.

Understand where documents live
Everything on the Move syncs through your reMarkable account. You add a document in one place — the desktop app, the mobile app, email or a linked cloud folder — and it appears on the device after a sync over Wi-Fi. There is no plain USB drive to drag files onto.
-
Method A — the desktop app
Open the reMarkable app on your computer, sign in, and drag PDF or EPUB files into the library, or use "Import". They upload to your account and download to the Move on its next sync. This is the main method for a batch of PDFs.
-
Method B — the mobile app and share sheet
On your phone, open a PDF and use "Share", then the reMarkable app, or add it inside the app. Good for a document that arrived by email on your phone — and a natural fit for a device you carry like a phone.
-
Method C — email to your device
With a reMarkable account you can email documents to a personal address shown in the account settings. Attachments are added to your library. Availability of this depends on your plan.
-
Method D — cloud integrations
With a reMarkable Connect subscription you can link Google Drive, Dropbox or OneNote and open files from them directly on the device. Without the subscription these integrations are limited or unavailable.
-
Prepare PDFs for the smaller page
A 7.3-inch screen shows a full A4 or US-Letter PDF page small. Before sending a text-heavy PDF, trim its margins (Calibre's "Polish books" or a dedicated tool) so the text fills more of the page, or convert it to a PDF at a page size near the Move's screen. This matters more here than on the bigger reMarkables.
-
Know the EPUB limitation
The Move opens EPUB, but its handling is basic — limited font and layout control, no real library organisation, and some EPUBs render poorly. For serious ebook reading, a Kobo or Kindle is far better. Use the Move for PDFs and for the occasional EPUB you also want to mark up.
