I am using filemaker pro 12 with advanced server 12.. I have a container field that contains pdf's. The images some time are not oriented correctly and when i flip the image within the container field it does not remaing flipped. I flip the image leave the record and come back into the record but, the image goes back to the original orientation. is this a known issue or am i missing something?

This is the expected behavior.

 

When you are interacting with a PDF document in a container you are accessing the underlying PDF engine that renders the document. (Preview or Acrobat on Mac or Acrobat on windows - if memory serves )

 

The only way to make sure the orientation remains is to export the PDF to the desktop open it in the reader change orientation SAVE the file and then reimport or drag back in the PDF.

 

You can't modify the file while it is stored in the container field.
