Exported Confluence page to PDF and unable to import it back again

[Marcelo Sosa]

Hi, 

I exported a Confluence page to PDF for backup. Page got deleted by someone and is not archived. Now I want to import back the exported PDF but I cant. Only in Word but it losses all formatting. 

Any ideas?

Thank you

Marc

Hi @Marcelo Sosa 

I'm afraid you can't upload from a .pdf straight into Confluence. You could save it as an attachment. However you can upload from a Word document https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-content-into-confluence-cloud/

You would need a pdf editor though, the free Adobe version will remove all formatting but Adobe Acrobat Pro DC would allow for editing.

You're best option might be to try and recover the page from trash and restore it though?
