Your PDF files are presumably recorded as Files rather than Pictures in Legacy's Picture Gallery. Families currently only supports Picture items, but we already have an enhancement request to add support for other media types, i.e. Sound, Video and Files.

Brian,

I can't promise but would hope to have it available by the end of the year. One of the issues with supporting attached files is that, unlike photos, their size is indeterminate, e.g. you could potentially have many files each of several hundred megabytes. I'm therefore thinking of specifying a maximum file size via a settings option - files bigger than this would not be transferred. Can you give me some idea of the typical sizes of your PDF files?

Yes, it would be an option in Families Sync - probably default to 5 Mb max.

Any idea when this feature may be available? desperately needing to be able to access the PDF files as well
