iAnnotate PDF Help Center: FAQs

How do I make sure documents (new/modified PDFs) on servers are always downloaded into iAnnotate?

iAnnotate can easily keep your Library’s documents up to date with your remote server accounts. This can be done several ways:

In the Connectivity tab:

  • Tap the blank circle on a folder(s) in a remote account to select the folder(s). Selecting a folder selects all of its contents too (individual content files cannot be deselected).
  • Tap Sync Marked to download any new or modified PDFs into iAnnotate AND to (at the same time) upload any annotated and modified PDFs from iAnnotate into that account (if those PDFs originated from that account).
