Concur--the Where From info is part of the metadata of the file itself, and goes where the file goes. That said, you might not see a wherefrom entry in the metadata, even if your pdf came from the internet. Pretty much none of my pdfs have the entry because I generally click the link, they open in Safari, I decide whether I want to keep the file, tell it to open in Preview then save it with a name of my choosing. If something came down in a zip file, you unzipped it, and tossed the original zip file you've also tossed the wherefrom info, which was on the zip file, not its unzipped contents. If you download something and see it listed in the Downloads window in Safari, it should have a wherefrom entry. Also, if when you are viewing the pdf in Safari instead of opening and saving in Preview you click the little download icon in the Safari window it will be saved into your default Downloads folder with the name it has on the web site and will include the wherefrom info.
