Usually you'll update (or supersede) a document by replacing it with another file uploaded from your computer. However you can also use this procedure to update incorrect or incomplete information about the document. For example, if there is a spelling error in the document title, or if you need to add comments about the document.

Tip: When you update a document with a new file, the previous revision is retained in the document history. Previous document revisions are not deleted.
