Trouble opening pdfs

Question

Hi, when i send pdf's via email the recipient receives the following message when opening the file..

Adobe Acrobat Reader could not open '- 11-18-2020.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

How can i try to fix this issue?

Regards
