PDF file missing in Files Manager A PDF file disappeared in Files Manager while drawing in a notes file using the Apple Pencil. The file just suddenly curled up and disappeared from the folder in which it was located and now it is neither in the folder nor in the “recently deleted” folder. The only mention of it is in the "Recent" category, but I can't copy it or move it. File Manager simply cannot find its location in the properties. I worked on an iPad Pro 12.9" 4th generation

To my knowledge, Google Drive does not support “edit in place” for markup - and for this reason, you’ll see a new version of your document when editing.
