Well in all fairness I do not think it was corrupted.
The "Problem" is that it is in AUTOBIN format but split up into parts.
Autobin transfer like YAPP can be acheived by using the BGET command on an
FBB bbs. However this AUTOBIN *splitting* method to make it into bulletins
is rarely used outside of one or two european countries where there a few
users of a packet trerminal software called Paxon (IIRC).
I believe (although cannot be totally sure) that this is a Win32 program.
I *personally* happen to think that anyone who wants to maximise the
"audience" should stick to accepted binary to ascii conversion methods
to ensure maximum dispersal instead of expecting the rest of the world to
follow a minority and little known piece of software.
It simply alienates the majority of users and shows little thought by its
users as to what current packet protocols and methods are used.
So for me and I suspect the vast majority of users, the .pdf file remains
totally useless.
