It does start with %PDF. I have Acrobat 7 (full product) and it is unreadable. Acrobat Reader 8 can't read it either. FWIW, the file doesn't look much like other PDFs I've seen. Almost as though it went through ASCII->EBCDIC->ASCII translation and didn't survive. It's also missing the <CRLFs> and %%EOF is not found. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
