Autosync a folder with PDF for iPad/iPhone

Question

Is there a way to autosync a folder with iPad?
We'll have a shared PDF folder in our company, and what we need is the iPad to autosync with that folder, because the PDF files can change from day to day. So far we have to choose the specific file on the iPad and delete it, and then again choose the new file, which has been updatet, that's a bit difficualt. The problem is that we are not online with the iPads, and its not possible to be so. So using DropBox or similiar is not possible.
This solution is possible with music, cant understand why is not possible with PDF. Our PDF's are in different folder, so we need a app/solution which makes is possible to choose folders, and not files.
Hope some can help me:-)

Spotlight can certainly search pdf files I make. For instance, I have a file I created a couple of days ago named "AlaskaAirXmas06.pdf" and if I enter the search term "Horizon Air" that file is the top pick in Spotlight. When I select that file to open from the Spotlight results list, it opens in Preview with the first instance of "Horizon Air" highlighted, and with the drawer open listing all 5 occurrences of the phrase in the pdf. I have a file named "hanover.pdf" which I downloaded off the British Royals' web site, and when I do a search in Spotlight for the word "brunswick" that pdf pops up as the top search result, opening it has the word highlighted. So normal text based pdfs that can be opened by Preview and were created using my Mac are certainly indexed and searchable by Spotlight. The hanover.pdf file was created by QuarkXPress and encoded by Acrobat PDFWriter for Mac. I also have a file that is searched just fine by Spotlight that was also downloaded from the Royals' web site, and it was created on a Windows machine using MS Word and encoded using Acrobat Distiller for Windows.
However, I have in fact opened all the above at one time. Whether that will make a difference or not I don't know. I can search other pdfs from a Mac that I know I have not actually opened. Whether that would be true of pdfs not opened and not created by a Mac I don't know.
You might check your machine to make sure you have this:
"/System/Library/Spotlight/PDF.mdimporter"
That is necessary for Spotlight to be able to parse pdf files. If you have the importer and have tried re-indexing the folder containing the pdfs, more information about the pdf files themselves might help determine the source of your problem.
