Here's a catch! From the vf page, savePDF button is getting called but, this method is returning void. You need to either write the code of redirectQ method inside the savePDF method or simply call the redirectQ method as following with changing the return type from void to Pagereference of the savePDF method. 
public Pagereference savePDF() {
    //Your existing logic
    return redirectQ(aid);
}

Instantiate the pagereference as: 
PageReference quotePage = new PageReference('/'+qid);

Hi, many thanks for your repply , betwwen my post i have tried this but it doesn't work, no sense.
has you can see i did a debug, to ensure the Qid is correct.
i extracted that qid from log, and when manually type the URL http://salesforce.../eedkn8df54df8
i can see the Quote details page.
strange, isn't it ?

Can you post the visuaforce code from where this method is getting called? There could be issues with that code.

sure, thanks forfollowing.
this is the VF page, which is quite simple, a Headband on top, with just a Save button, and uder that an iframe to another VF page (in charge to display the quote details)

when press the Save button, it launch the SavePDF in charge to store the Iframe content in PDFquote (in PDF format), idea is after that it shoud go back to the SObject Quote details which should contains the PDF document attached.
Everything ok, except the rediect.

the VF page : 
<div>
           <apex:form > 
		<apex:pageBlock title="Document Preview">         
                <apex:pageBlockButtons >
                <apex:commandButton action="{! savePDF }" value="Save to Quote" />  
                    </apex:pageBlockButtons>
                       
         <div align="center">
             <apex:iframe src="apex/PDFredirect?id={!quote.id}" scrolling="true" height="1000px" width="50%"  />
         </div>
          
   		</apex:pageBlock>    
             </apex:form> 
     </div>

and the methods:
  
//Saves the PDF to the quote 
	public void savePDF(){
        id qid = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('Id');
        PageReference pageRef = new PageReference('/apex/NcQuote?id='+qid);
        Blob pdf = pageref.getContentAsPDF() ;
        System.debug('content:' + pdf);
        QuoteDocument doc = new QuoteDocument(Document=pdf, QuoteId=qid);
        System.debug('doc:' + doc);
        insert doc;	
        //comment the next line if no need to redirect to quote after PDF saved
        redirectQ(qid);
	}
    
    public PageReference redirectQ(id qid){
        System.debug('STARTING redirectQ: ' + qid);
        PageReference quotePage = new PageReference('/'+qid);
        quotePage.setRedirect(True);
        return quotePage;
    }

Thank you

I have tried by adding PageReference in pace of void into savePDF ... as you did , but the console says a problem.
so have moved the code of RedirectQ inside the savePDF method, and like this no error and it works fine !
MANY thanks for your assistance on this you are great !

Glad that it worked!
