          Thanks. I did something like this. I added and Observer and on receiving notification when the pdf changes write the contents to a filepath



          PDFView *view = notification.object;
          PDFDocument *myDocument = view.document;
          NSData* content = myDocument.dataRepresentation;
          [content writeToFile:newPath atomically:YES];


          That worked for me.
