Hi @Sunder. 👋

The easiest way is to find the topic the PDF was uploaded to and find the online URL; it’s possible that if you have a “copyright strike” then you were informed of the URL in question.

Do you store your uploads on your Discourse server or in an S3-compatible object storage bucket? Once you know the URL and where you are keeping the files, you can go in and remove it. 🙂
