    Mmmh... SyberKnight,

    That's application dependent. Some remove any old file before write new, others - no. Try save you new pdf version directly in Dropbox folder (not to move it after). If this don't do the trick read more carefully the documentation of the application in use what else could be done (if possible).

    Good luck. :wink:

    PS: If you feel comfortable yourself in terminal, can try "dd" command. Type "man dd" in terminal for more info.
