Update pdf files

Hi;
I seek an effective means to update automatically pdf documents stored on the Server of application (JBoss).
These pdf files are changed pratically every week it will be necessary that the customers display the last versions.
I must ti use CFT protocol or another solution ?
regards;

CFT? Do you mean this?

Personally I wouldn't bother. Just replace the files on their server by the latest versions, as they become available. And make sure that whatever is serving them reports their last change date accurately, so that browser caching can work correctly.

  • IE9 doesn't reflect updated PDF file but instead reflects from cached version

    First, I apologise if this issue might be discussed/resolved somewhere, but if you have any solutions/ideas to what my issue might be, please help to share. And thank you in advance.
    We have been using/filling PDF forms to generate dynamic FDF data. The URL/path to the PDF file is set inside the text/data of the generated FDF. The PDF file with the FDF data are shown to the browser. But with IE9, the browser always reflects cached version of PDF file, and not the updated version.  This is working fine for years in IE6..IE8, the updated PDF file with the dynamic FDF data are shown correctly. But in IE9, the FDF data is dynamically updated but the PDF file still shows the old version, which I think is from the cache.
    In my testing, either I emptied the IE’s cache or set the Internet Option to check for newer versions of the page then it will reflects the updated PDF File. I tried Ctrl-F5 (to force refresh) too but no avail. I used Acrobat Reader 9 & 11, both having same problem, running on Windows 7.

    Hi Pat. Thanks for your reply. 
    Actually, I already been checking any IE9 options that might be different from IE8, and tried to change "Security" settings also but still can't get the updated PDF file. Maybe you have in mind where I can specifically check and try out?
    I have tried IE10, but also encounter the same problem. sigghhhh
    I have been using this for years but no problem, this PDF/FDF document application is developed/created using Acrobat Professional ver6 and FDFtoolkit.

  • How to update pdf file using adobe exportpdf

    can you update a pdf if you only have the export pdf product?  thx

    Hi canusbau
    You Cannot Edit a PDF File Using Export PDF. You can Convert PDF into other formats using this Service,
    Though You can Convert it to Word or any Other format, Make Changes in the Document and then Use MS Office Save as Adobe PDF option to Create PDF again.

  • Updating pdf files in iweb site

    I have a site with several pdf files linked throughout the site. These pdf's get updated regularly, and I assumed that if I replace them with a new file named the same, it would update on the website. Strangely it does not.
    The only way I can get the pdf links to go to the new document is to break the link and then re-establish it. Even though the old file doesn't exist any more (has been replaced), it still persistently shows up.
    While I can continue to do this, it is tedious as multiple documents are linked on multiple pages throughout the site.
    Have tried publish and publish all. Is their any way to force iweb to use the new pdf files, or is there a different way to link them in the first place?
    The whole idea was so that multiple people could upload content to my public folder (schedules, lists, etc) in pdf and update the info without having to mess with the site.

    Instead of creating a hyperlink and then choose a file, put the pdf(s) on the server yourself first.
    Create a separate folder for them.
    Then determine the URL(s) to the file(s).
    In iWeb add a hyperlink *to an external page*. Use one of the URLs to the pdfs.
    Now you can update the pdf without iWeb.

  • After update pdf files are empty

    Yesterday I got a notification of an update for Adobe reader on a mac, OSX 10.7.5  After installation all my pdf files appear empty.  Message is "could not be opened because it is empty".  How to I fix this?

    Hi dacyndaf,
    It is highly unlikely for the update to have caused this.
    Would it be possible to share the file with me so that I can have a look.
    Are these pdfs created by acrobat or any 3rd party application?

  • Need to update pdf file and cannot

    I need to update a 2012 State Tax Return and software will not allow me to edit. Why?

    Hi kathiehursh,
    Please tell us happens when you try to update your PDF file. Do you get an error message? What version of Acrobat are you using? Or, did you convert your PDF file to Word format, and are trying to edit it there?

  • Updating pdf file

    I have a new pdf file locally that I am trying to exchange
    for an existing file on the remote site. my clients are using
    Contribute to make changes in editable regions where they have
    links in these regions to pdf files created by them Microsoft Word.
    I downloaded the entire site to avoid erasing any changes they have
    made. The "downloads" folder shows pdf files with the DW file icon
    in the local files and says that they are pdf files. My new file
    shows the adobe acrobat icon and signifies pdf in file type but
    won't load. The link works when I preview in DW (CS3) but won't
    overwrite the remote file. I have erased the remote file, I have
    the new file with the same name in my local folder and have "put"
    it separately and also "put" the page with dependent files. I can't
    figure out where this old file even exists and why it won't
    overwrite!! Please help.

    Due to local security restrictions, I am required to use a
    secure FTP program that is installed and managed by the IT
    Department
    That means I have never used DW's Put/Get commands... but...
    does DW not have a server side view that SHOWS the files on the
    server?
    I can't imagine using any FTP program, integrated or not,
    that does not let me see the files on the server so I know I am
    sending a file to the right place

  • After 10.5.5 update pdf files crash when printing

    I updated to 10.5.5 and all is seemingly OK (including the HP utilities for my Officejet 7310 and all of the diagnostics such as ink level - so that is working). Yet even with the latest Acrobat Reader installed, I cannot print a pdf as both Acrobat and Preview crash whenever I try to print a pdf document (either one that I generated or one downloaded from a website). Is there something I am overlooking here? I have repaired permissions and restarted.

    Hi Theo:
    Just out of curiosity, did you set up your printer using the OS X built-in drivers, or did you use the HP stuff? I have seen posts from people who have had difficulties with the HP supplied drivers.
    Also, by the latest Adobe Reader, I am assuming that is 9.0.0. I had a similar problem sometime ago, but it seemed to disappear when I downloaded the aforementioned version of the Reader.

  • Update version of pdf file in code

    I would like to update pdf files from previous versions to 1.8 within code. This would provide users with updated files without having to sit through a long save process.

    Brad,
    This indeed seems to be the only way to fulfill my need as the PDF files I need to add are pre existing and I'd like the complete report be generated by Diadem 'with one push of a button'.
    After some minimal research I think I can get everything working as I would like using Ghostscript to convert any required PDF file to seperate PNG files and then load its pages.
    I currently use:
    Call ExtProgram ("C:\Program Files\gs\gs9.14\bin\gswin64c", "-dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -r200 -sDEVICE=png16m -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -sPAPERSIZE=letter -sOutputFile=D:\Drop\Temp\PNG-%d.png D:\Drop\Temp\PDF.pdf")
     I have tried to get a variables within this command for the input and output files and locations but couldn't get it to work so as is I'll have to shuffle files around to be able to use this rigid approach. If there is any way to get a variable within this code it's use would be a lot easier.
    As the external program is called the script continues without knowing when the required info (files) is available. To prevent using a fixed pause time I tried to use a small pause and compare filesize before and after pause to determine if a file is fully available, Unfortunately this doesn't realy work as well as I hoped. Also I guess that used h/w and other processes running at the same time would effect what pause time to  use. I might have to find another way to see if a file is generated completely but I'll quote anyways:
    Do
    k= FileSize (Wrkdir & "PNG-"&i&".png")
    Call Pause (0.3)
    Loop Until (k=FileSize (Wrkdir & "PNG-"&i&".png"))
     Although the script now does what it needs to do there is some shuffeling of files required because of the rigidity in the call to the external program and to keep it reliable longer than required pause times are needed.
    The realisation of a function that will insert existing Pdf files(pages) is becoming within grasps If I can get around these 2 minor issues.

  • PDF portfolio - how do i update or replace pdf files in portfolio

    I created a pdf portfolio using the map feature where i drag the pdf's onto the image.
    But now, after i have all the pdf's in the portfolio, i want to replace/update some of the pdf files.
    I can't see an option anywhere to do this?
    Is it possible???
    Thanks

    In the Find window (Ctrl+F) there's an option to replace the searched text.
    This is in Acrobat XI, and there's no Replace All-function.

  • When we update an existing pdf file occurence of " /Count"  increases.

    We have one pdf file with 20 pages and when we open this file in editplus to see its content it shows "<</Count 20".
    But when we add new page to it or insert from other pdf file the "<</Count" is shown two times with the values 20 and the added page count, i.e. "<</Count 20", "<</Count 22" (if we added to new pages to it.)
    Please confirm why this happening?

    None of this is unusual or unexpected. Read about incremental updates, and object streams.

  • Firefox won't open pdf files; uninstalled and reinstalled Firefoxes, updated all extensions,etc. still getting error messages.

    When I attempt to load a .pdf file, a window pops up reading "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (4:4)"
    I have tried rebooting the computer, uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, making sure all plug-ins are updated (they are), disabling every other plug in to see if it was interfering (they weren't -- still got same message), and reinstalling adobe reader (and flash, just for good measure).

  • Iphone 3G Software Update Fixes security vulnerability associated with viewing malicious PDF files?

    Is there an Iphone 3G Software Update Fixes security vulnerability associated with viewing malicious PDF files?  Latest version I can download is 4.2.1
    I assume no fix is available, does anyone know if I'm still vulnerable to the security bug?

    No fix is needed since that vulnarability isn't in 4.2.1.

  • Since the update I can no longer open a link from an email opened PDF file. I could prior to update

    Since the update I can no longer open a link from an email opened PDF file. I could prior to update

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • Can no longer download pdf file since last safari update

    Since the last OS update (I am running Safari 6.1; OX 10.8.5) pdf files via Safari fail to open. Yet they do open in Firefox, which is 'not' my default browser. Anyone else having issues?

    Try this ...
    Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go.
    If you see the:  AdobePDFViewer plugin (or anything Adobe related) in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
    Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.
