Bringing PDFs to a new ipad

I've been using SLM on my work iPad but I'm getting a new iPad for myself and want to move my entire database from the old one to the new one - not copying, transferring. However, I need to ensure that the lyric sheets I have in my database as PDFs get transferred too.

Is there a way to move the complete SLM database ncluding documents  or would I be better off to just start all over again?

You can export each of your databases from your work iPad and then import them into new, empty databases on your personal iPad:

Then you'll have to copy the PDFs to the new iPad. The easiest way to do that is to connect the old iPad to your computer and copy all the documents from it with iTunes File Sharing; then connect the new iPad and copy those documents to it. You can select and copy all the documents at once that way.
