How to download pdf files to my ipad mini

In a previous version of iTunes, I used to be able to drag and drop pdf files to my ipad from my PC after adding them to the Library. With the latest version of iTunes, this "capability" seems to have evaporated. Why did Apple do this and who was the mental-midget that made the decision to do away with this capability? I have tried mailing them to myself from my PC, picking up the mail on my iPad, but all I get is an ability to download the pdf to a "drive".

To my knowledge, there is no "drive" on my iPad, so I do not know where the pdf goes when I click on the button. There does not seem to be anyway to get the pdf off the e-mail and into the "iBooks" part of the iPad. ITunes seems to only be able to download music files. Thus the question - how do I get pdf files off my desktop Windows V. Any insight that anyone can provide as to how to make this happen easily, will be greatly appreciated. Posted on Nov 19, PM.
