| Feature name | Rodox Magazine PDF Update (Rodox PDF Upd) |

| Scope | • UI for uploading/replacing the PDF.
• Backend API + storage handling (S3/Google Cloud Storage).
• Versioning and rollback.
• Automatic cache busting for CDN.
• Email notification to subscribers on successful publish. |
| Out of scope | • In‑browser PDF editing.
• Dynamic generation of PDFs from HTML (that will be a separate feature).
• Monetisation (pay‑per‑download) – not part of the initial release. | rodox magazine pdf upd
