Are RQM PDF Exports kept in the Server (bd or files)?
2 answers
PDFs (and CSVs) are stored in the DB for a short period of time and then they are automatically removed by a background process. By default, they are removed roughly 48 hours after they are created.
It is possible for a user that has the appropriate permissions to manually delete entries in the DB from the Export Job Queue. Make sure that your user has the permissions view and delete under Administer Print Jobs.
A user with those permissions will find a new option available to them on the Export Job Queue page that enables them to view all of the jobs on the server (rather than just the ones they requested). They will also be able to select and delete whichever ones they like (which will remove the file from the DB).

There are two Advanced properties that determine purging of pdf jobs, they are:
1) Print Job Expiration Window (hours) default 48 hours
2) PrintJobReaper Delay (sec) default 36000 seconds
By default the reaper job will run every 10 hours and delete any print jobs that are more than 2 days old
