PDF files don't have to be binary. When I downloaded it from the  
server I got an ASCII PDF - which isn't unusual (binary PDFs are just  
compressed ASCII PDFs). I'm not sure if it'll make it through the  
mailing list but here's what I see:

%PDF-1.4
%Âéî¡
3 0 obj

   /Type /Catalog
   /Pages 2 0 R

4 0 obj

That funky looking second line was the one I deleted - it all works  
fine after that.
