    Default Older pdf in New PDF's spot

    If I replace PDF's that I created the day before with ones from today within the same folder, the old pdf opens when I click on the new. I'm guessing this has to do with OSX cashes and having PDF play such a vital role within the OS. This is especially frustrating when you try and print an updated pdf and the old one prints out. The problem goes away after re-booting.

    Has anybody else seen this?

    Jenn,

    More details. If you really replaced the old pdfs with the new pdfs,
    then the old one is gone. There are no caches, unless you are opening
    through a browser. I do this sort of thing all day long and never open
    what is now a deleted pdf file. I haven't seen the behavior you cite,
    since working with Acrobat 1 and now I'm up to Acrobat 7. Something
    else is going on. With more details we can help.

    I don't think ther are any more details to relate. It hapens just that simple.

    An earlier file of the same name is deleted and replaced with a newer file and the changes do not update unless I reboot. The files are stored on a windows 2003 server, not locally on the OSX machine. Is that the missing detail?

    Jenn,

    That is much better. Now one more detail. How are the files being
    retrieved from the server? If they are being served via http and
    downloaded with a web broswer, then there is a cache problem. Every
    browser has a slightly different place to clear the cache.
