files aren't visible through finder

[mspain77]

i am creating a media disk with low res. pdf's and jpg's for viewing purposes only. i needed to just add 'sample' across each one screened back so that they couldn't print form these without paying.
i opened up the pdf's in ps, added the copy, and resaved in both pdf and jpg format. i then opened the pdf's in acrobat and reduced the file size and saved over them. when i try to 'open' from either ps or acrobat, i can see all the files and open them. when i view the folder through finder, every time i click on an icon it disapperas, and 'get info' reads the folders and being 7.6 mb in size, but as having 'zero items' conatined within. please help!

Where is this folder located? On a server? On the local machine?

What format is the drive containing that folder in -- HFS+? FAT32? NTFS?

[mspain77]

it's on my desktop. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling acrobat professional because it did that to ANY pdf that i 'reduced the file size' through acrobat to. that doesnt' work. once i do that with the new install, the file disapperas from it's location.
i believe the drive is HFS

Hmmm... can you try doing the "reduce file size" in Acrobat, then, instead of saving OVER the previous file, save as a new file with a new filename?

Please provide the Mac model?, the 'System' or 'MacOS X' version?, and the 'Adobe Acrobat' version?
