Hi,

In this thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-mobile/android-buttons-actions-saved-pdf-javascript/m-p/10822917#M7274 I am helping a user with a different issue that is indirectly related to yours.

I've posted plenty of slides from my Android device to illlustrate how to manage and save files.

As a rule of thumb, if you are getting files from other places on the web, like Facebook, they will normally be saved in the Downloads folder.

Be aware that when you open Acrobat Reader these files will be stored in the Download folder by default; not in the Downloads folder that your deafult browser uses.

When you open Acrobat Reader, in your Home View screen click on the bottom ribbon toolbar Files.

On the next screen select On this Device, and the next screen on the upper left corner below the title bar you will see where all of your PDF are stored which is the Downloads folder.
