I know that there is a "Check if a folder is empty", but it does not check for existing of the folder.

On Job level you can use the step 'Checks if files exist' for checking the existance of files but folders aswell.
But to use it in Pentaho is more complicated. When creating a Job rather than a transform, straight Java is not directly available (that I know of). The good news is PDI's JavaScript interpreter is Rhino. That means all Java's objects and classes are available to JavaScript. As such the check is pretty easy.
Add a variable or parameter in your job and call it something like
dirpath
and give it a path to evaluate. Then add a JavaScript step to the job and add put the following code in it:Control will flow down the Success or Failure paths from this step based on the truth of the last line.
Pentaho will likely add that capability to their Check if File Exists step soon, but in the mean time, this will work. OTOH, might be another good example of a custom plugin that could be written.
