Upload a revised content record

You can update records containing uneditable content files like PDF and image files by uploading a new file to replace the existing file. This method is an alternative way to edit and preserve styles in Office when you do not have the Qvidian Office add-in toolbar.

Note: You can upload only one revised record at a time and of the same file type.For additional ways to edit content records, see About editing content records

Caution: Ensure the file uploaded has the same name as the content record to update. Qvidian assumes you are updating the correct record..
