                BookmarkResponse response = pdfApi.putBookmark(PDF_DOCUMENT, BOOKMARK_PATH, bookmark, REMOTE_FOLDER, null, null);
                if (response.getCode() != 200)
                    System.err.println("Error: unexpected error when replacing bookmark! '" + response.getStatus() + "'");
                else{
                    // download changed PDF file from remote folder...
                    File f = pdfApi.downloadFile(Path.of(REMOTE_FOLDER , PDF_DOCUMENT).toString(), null, null);
                    java.nio.file.Files.copy(Path.of(f.getPath()), Path.of(LOCAL_FOLDER, PDF_OUTPUT), StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);
                    System.out.println(String.format("File '%s' successfully dowloaded!", Path.of(LOCAL_FOLDER, PDF_OUTPUT).toString()));                
                    System.out.println("Successfully replaced bookmark in document ! '" + PDF_OUTPUT + "'");
                }
            }
