Like actions 43 and 44. I had to create a new folder inside of resources called manipulate_pdf to store both the original and updated pdf. For some reason I could only alter the names of the pdfs if they were not inside the resources folder. Because of this it is not possible to reopen the pdf in our canvas. This could be fixed by having the canvas also use the folder I created for its pdf but I realize this would cause a lot of merge conflicts and might not be an ideal fix.
