I have created some PDF files programatically, which i am storing into the devices memory using the following code >>>>
NSString *fileName = [NSString s
Just prefix the filename with a dot, as in .SampleTextFile.pdf.
But the real solution is to not store the document in the NSDocumentDirectory in the first place. You should create subdirectory in the NSLibraryDirectory and store this stuff there. It also gets backed up and will not get purged like Caches and tmp, but the user cannot access it with iTunes.
