Answer 1

Hi,

are you planing to append the text in exisiting pdf  file?

Answer 2

Yes. I am planning to append the text in the existing pdf  file. I checked out the file first and then saved to my local folder and upload again with the overwritten checkbox enabled, then finally i didnt get the changes in the pdf.

I am checking different ways to get this work done, but no hope.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hi,

I assume you have two pdf  files and they have different contents.

Let’s say 1.pdf and 2.pdf.

Please try to check it as following:

1.      Upload 1.pdf to SharePoint site

2.      Delete 1.pdf in local

3.      Change the name of 2.pdf to 1.pdf

4.      Upload 1.pdf to SharePoint site

5.      And then could you get the two version of this document with different contents?

Please let me know the result.

Hope this helps

Thanks!

Answer 5

i know you have only one pdf  file.

because i have no pdf eidt tool, so i didn't change the content of pdf.

in order to reproduce your issue, i use the way i said in previous reply.

please have a try and let me know the result.

Answer 6

In the second step you are saying i need to delete the document from my local folder but not from the share point right?

Answer 7

yes.

1.      Upload 1.pdf in local to SharePoint site

2.      Delete 1.pdf in local

3.      Change the name of 2.pdf in local to 1.pdf

4.      Upload 1.pdf in local to SharePoint site

Thanks

Answer 9

after you finished updating the document, can you check the Event View and ULS logs.

i can't reproduce your issue in my local.

Answer 11

I have recently resolved an issue like this. Not sure if this is the case you're facing. In my case, this is just a disk-based caching enabling. Just open the web.config of the web application and check if the BLOBCACHE setting is enabled and if the pdf file type is specified in. For more information, take a look here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727371%28office.12%29.aspx#MOSS2007OptPerfWCM_ServerResponseTimes

Answer 12

yes i checked my web.config and looks like pdf  is in that list. I just removed pdf from web.config and tried it, but didnt change the document. actually i didnt make a iisreset, but i need to do that too.

But i noticed one thing my site  has alternate access mapping when i checked the site with servername:port/sitename/doclib/s1.pdf, i was able to see the update, but when i use that alternate name like alternateaccessmappingname/sitename/doclib/s1.pdf i couldnt see the update.
