I tried to save it as a pdf and png but it said that the file was damaged. And when I download it doesn’t show anything

If the downloaded file is damaged too, then most likely it has been uploaded that way @Caricart8.

 

Are these files part of your account, or do you access them through a shared link?

@Caricart8, if you’re accessing our forum via a mobile device, it may not be possible to upload the screenshot here indeed. 

 

Can you try to do it via a computer instead? Here’s the button you’ll need to click on to attach it here:

Hi @Caricart8, it sounds like the file wasn't successfully uploaded to Dropbox originally, which is why you're not seeing the preview on the site, and also get an error message when viewing the downloaded copy.
