That's a good question, but not one I've had to deal with. I think it would depend on the number of files involved. I'd probably use mod_rewrite to rewrite the URLs so dir1/dir2/dir3.pdf would go to files/dir1/dir2/dir3.pdf. Hi Robert. That’s a good question, but not one I’ve had to deal with.

I've used the Import HTML module to migrate my sites over to Drupal. It's a little buggy but does the trick for the most part. One question - changing the URLs for images makes sense, but how do you handle changing the URLs for other non-HTML files (e.g. pdfs, docs, xls, etc)? Rob Very interesting work.
