Annotated PDFs Being Overwritten by WeBeep Sync

Open mattiacolombomc opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

While using WeBeep Sync, I've encountered a situation that leads to loss of annotations on PDF files. Here's the sequence of events:

  1. WeBeep Sync downloads a set of PDF slides.
  2. I promptly open the file from the current directory with a PDF editor, especially when I'm in a hurry.
  3. I annotate and take notes on the PDF throughout the lecture.
  4. After the lecture, I save the annotated file.
  5. Post-saving, WeBeep Sync detects that a file is absent and re-downloads the original file, inadvertently overwriting and erasing all my annotations.

It would be immensely helpful if we could find a workaround for this situation.
