Check out a file from SharePoint

The safest way to work on a PDF file that resides on an Office 365 or SharePoint Server is to check out the file. Other
users cannot edit the file while you're working on it.

1

To check out a PDF file, do one of the following:

• (Windows) Using Internet Explorer, navigate to the PDF file on the Office 365 or SharePoint portal. Click the

document or choose Edit Document from the file pop-up menu.

• In Acrobat or Reader, choose File > Open, choose New Account from the Open An Online Account menu. Then

select either Office 365 or SharePoint, and specify the URL or complete UNC path of the PDF file.

2

A dialog box displays the filename and location. Click one of the following:

• Check Out and Open

• Open, to open the file without checking it out

Note: If you are required to sign in to the SharePoint server, enter your user name and password when prompted.

Cancel checkout

You can discard the checked-out version of a PDF file if you don’t want to save your changes.

1

Choose File > SharePoint/Office 365 Server > Discard Check Out.

2

A confirmation message appears. Click OK.

Note: You cannot edit a document offline.

Prepare document properties

You can specify the document’s Office 365 or SharePoint properties from within Acrobat or Reader.

1

Choose File > SharePoint/Office 365 Server > Prepare Document Properties.

2

Double-click the property to edit. The Edit dialog box appears. Enter a value and click OK.
