PDF Editing with Power PDF
Edit in Power PDF
PDF documents from buildagil can be edited directly in Power PDF without having to be downloaded. To prevent other users from saving changes to the same document while it is being edited, the document is checked out when opened and checked back in after editing. For more information on opening PDF documents from buildagil, see the following article: Editing PDF Documents with Local Programs.

When you open a document in Power PDF, a message prompting you to check it out appears. Clicking "Check Out and Open" locks the document so others cannot access it and opens it for editing.

Changes are saved in Power PDF as usual. When you close the document, a message appears asking if you want to check it in. Clicking "Yes" checks the document in and releases it for others again.

After a short loading time, the installation will begin.

Later in the installation process, select "Custom" as the setup type.

When selecting program features, the "Install this feature and all subfeatures" option is selected for "Connectors."

Next, select the installation location and complete the installation. You can verify that the connector was installed correctly in Power PDF under "File / Options": The "Connectors" option will appear there, along with the SharePoint settings.
