Need to replace pdf file on existing website. Please help!

Our intern left this summer and we're clueless about Dreamweaver. We have a Spry Menu with a link to a pdf file of our employment application. Our application has been revised, and we need to replace it on the website.
From what we have gathered, Spry Menu Widget is no longer available to download and we are unable to change the link to a new file via the widget because intern took his laptop with the widget installed.
So to make do, I have downloaded the files from the website to my Local folder, deleted the old employment application pdf file and have replaced it with the new application with the exact same file name as the old one.
My question is.... If I highlight the new application in our local folder and click upload, should this make the link in the menu bar go to the new application?
Thanks for you help in advance!

Ok, sure. So we needed to replace a pdf file that was linked from our spry menu bar. We didn't have the widget and didn't think we could download it, so we went to the folder on the bottom right hand side of the screen and opened the remote folder. We then highlighted all of those files except for the / file at the very top. We then clicked the down arrow to copy those files into our local folder. Once they were downloaded, we went into the local folder and found the file we needed to switch out. We then deleted that file, named our new file the exact same file name, and clicked and dragged it from our computer onto the same folder that contained the file we deleted. We then highlighted that file, right clicked and chose "PUT", as Jon had instructed us to do above. It uploaded the file. When it was finished, we checked our website and got an error because the pages wouldn't load. However, a few minutes later we tried again and everything worked perfectly. The new pdf file had replaced the old one and still linked properly from the menu bar.

Hi olivias,
It sounds like there may be some confusion on your system about what application should be associated with PDF files. You can reset filename associations by following the steps in these articles (depending on your operating system):

Please let us know if you have additional questions.

When I try to download Adobe Reader firefox says I need additional plugins. Then it says there are no plugins available. I can't get PDF files in firefox. Please help.

Adobe Reader will not download. It says my browser needs additional plugins. I click on download plugins and it says there are no plugins found.
I cannot read any PDF files from Firefox.

Try removing the Adobe DLM from your extensions in firefox. It will ask you to restart firefox. After restarting the pdf files should show in your browser as usual. This worked for me.

Hi there @Delta0 and welcome to the community!
I understand you can scan however, you cannot open up the PDF file afterwards.
Please let me know which operating system you are running and I will certainly look into this issue for you.
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
In the meantime, try updating Adobe to see if that helps.
Have a great day

There are some issues with this PDF file. It's not tagged but even still it has some real problems. I checked the file to see what created it and it was something called "Wine Postscript Driver" and the PDF Producer was "GPL GhostScript 9.10" When you check the file in Preflight then you will begin to understand that this is a poorly created PDF file. Here is a bit of the PDF Syntax report:

I've got a 0 byte, errorous pdf file, which I can't delete. Neither in normal nor in safe mode.

What I would try if I encountered the situation:

Problems opening PDF files/folders/web links please help

I have Windows XP, run Internet Explorer 7 and have Adobe Reader 8.1.2.
Now please understand that I am not terribly computer literate to I will do the best I can to describe my problem.
When I click on a link on a web page that requires Adobe Reader to view the new page, the new page is opened in Microsoft Word and of course is all jumbled.
So to actually be able to open and view the page I have to right click the link, click Save As, save it to a folder, left click Open Folder then Right click the document and choose Open With Adobe Reader 8.
So my question is how can I set the computer/Adobe Reader/ or whatever to automatically open things that require Adobe Reader to be viewed to open in Adobe Reader and not Microsoft Word.
Many thanks to anybody who can help me.

I also have Windows XP, run Internet Explorer 7, and have Adobe Reader 8.1.2.
Melissa is more computer literate than I am so bear with me and provide me with all the help you can.
My problem is that when I click on a new link on a web page to view or fill up or print a document, sometimes the document or the link will open and other times it will not open at all. What can I do to rectify this problem?

Unable to view pdf files sourced from websites

Hi
I have previously had no trouble viewing pdf files from various websites, however am now unable to. It appears to be loading and then just comes up with a blank screen.
I am able to view pdf files which have been emailed without problem.
I have removed Acrobat Reader & reloaded but this has not helped.
I am able to view pdfs on our laptop & ipad and the settings appear to be the same.
Does anyone know what I can do to resolve this problem?
Thanks!

For Safari, you need to remove the adobe pdf plugins which Adobe apparently screwed up. You need to remove:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
I think you can "get away with" removing just the second one. But both for sure should allow you to open pdf's in a browser (all browsers).
If you are not using Safari the above will work for other browsers too, although in FireFox, you could just disable the use of those plugins from within Firefox (Tools menu --> AddOns --> Plugins).

Hit the link for the PDF-you will be given option to open in safari or iBooks(or any other program able o open PDFs).
That's not what she asked about. She asked about saving PDFs, not just opening them and reading them. While Safari lets you open PDF documents, it does not let you save them. In order to save them, you'll need to use a web browser that permits downloading. I use Atomic Web Browser and can confirm that it does permit downloading and saving of PDF documents.

When you open a pdf in iBooks, it's automatially saved there.

Replacing PDF files - fixed?

One of my clients links to a PDF file from multiple places on
his website.
He likes to update the PDF file periodically, but in previous
versions of Contribute, this was not something he could do (because
Contribute renames the PDF file if there is already a file by that
name the server).
Has this been fixed in the latest version of Contribute?
In other words, can I allow my client to replace PDF
files?

If you haven't already, update to Contribute 3.11 (version 3
plus free Contribute 3.11 updater at
http://www.adobe.com/support/contribute/downloads.html)
or higher. This allows you to over-write a PDF with another of the
same file name, via File > Publish File From My Computer >
..etc.

I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
Do cleanup.
Be well...

Can I use a pdf file as a website and can it be protected?

If I create a pdf file (that will eventually end up around 600 A4 pages)
how can I use that file alone as a website, please?
Is it also possible to do a pdf file for my website that does not allow the visitor
to save, print or in any way store a copy of my pdf file, please?
Any help here is appreciated as I know only just a little about pdf files.
Many thanks for reaidng me.
Kevin

The PDF can be linked on a web site, but it is not HTML and will not display as a web site. It would ALWAYS be downloaded and opened in a PDF viewer -- Acrobat, Reader, GView, etc. You can not restrict the saving of the PDF. Once it has been opened on a client machine, it has been saved locally. Thus a user would only have to copy the file from the download location -- though many users do not know how to do this. If you want the PDF to be secure in some sense so that it can not be used if copied and such, then you have to use Digital Rights at a substantial cost (in the $1000s).

Ever since I installed Safari 5.1 I can no longer access the pdf files on my website. I keep on getting an error with Webkit2webprocess.exe telling me that LogTransport2.dill was not found. Please help..

Ever since I installed Safari 5.1 on my PC (XP) I can no longer access the pdf files on my website. I have no problems with Chrome and Firefox. I keep on getting a message from WebKit2WebProcess.exe that the LogTransport2.dill was not found. (I HATE PCs...) I tried reinstalling Acrobat 9. I tried reinstalling Safari. I even tried an older version of Safari. Nothing Helped. Others have tried it on their machine, and it worked fine. But I do not know what is the matter with mine. I suspect the root cause is the missing LogTransport2.dill file. But I do not know how to go about getting it. Your help is truly appreciated. My website is http://www.hlmartworks.com.

I have also found the article that provides 3 solutions but none of the solutions worked.

Need to replace a file in the application server

Hello Experts,
Through ABAP coding, I need to replace a file which is available in the application server from one path to another. I should not use OPEN DATASET, CLOSE DATASET, DELETE DATASET and all as they deal with the data. I need to replace the file with out touching the data of the file.
