I had been doing everything on the command line, so it only looked like a directory. It opens with skim just fine. When I tried to open it with Acrobat Professional (8.1.0) I got "a Macintosh system error (-1409)". > If you want it to do something else, you should modify the script to > do whatever you want it to do.

The notes are indeed embeded into a PDF and Acrobat reads them. If I add notes using Acrobat and write them out ... Skim happily updates automatically - it's pretty cool to watch. Thanks!
