(I hope this is in the right place.)

This seems very strange. I'll try to be brief.

Every week we burn a CD with PDFs of our finished pages, which the courier collects and then prints our publication. Every week I get the CD back, I store them in archives (now going back years) in case I need them again.

Today I got out two previously burned CDs to extract the PDFs for a customer who wanted them: easier than PDF-ing the pages again. (with me so far? good)

I put the CD into this Mac. CD loaded. It said zero content. I tried another. Same result. How can that be, when the CD is burned?

Our printer (the company, not the device) also use Macs. Seems to me they load our CD, print from it, put the CD back in the case, return it to me, right? So how can the returned CD have zero content?

What am I missing here? Even if they swipe (copy) the PDFs onto their desktop, the originals would still be on the hard CD? confused
