Yesterday I bought an album on iTunes, and of course it includes a digital booklet (a pdf file). I am easily able to move the songs and the digital booklet to another Mac. To do this, I just transfer the files to my other Mac and drop them onto the iTunes application. Then the songs and the booklet are automatically imported into iTunes. Excellent! No problem!
I'm 100 percent happy with the outcome from the songs. They all appear in my Library playlist, and they have all of the information (artist/album/album-art/etc) from the original Mac.
The digital booklet is a different story. I do see the pdf file in my iTunes playlist, but it does not have the album cover (for instance, in "album view" or "cover flow view"), and it also lacks the artist information, album information, etc.
Anybody know a better way to import the digital booklet, so that it gets associated with the album correctly?
I hope to do this *without* a hack or a 3rd-party program. There must be a hack-free way to do this *without* having to manually type the album/artist information and without copying the album cover to the pdf file.
Any advice? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
(By the way, this has nothing to do with enabling flash in QuickTime. I'm not talking about interactive booklets here.... just plain pdf files with the album information (lyrics/credits) inside.)

I just happened to discover this trick myself. At the time it happened, I didn't find any good advice on Google about it.... [I would imaging that it's well-known now.]
