Wonderful! Have you exported to pdf the full content
of a field, a card or a whole stack?

Yes, you are right. I downloaded the PDF reference

For this reason, I'm interested to know if the
code of this site still works.

Maybe it does not works for me because the wrong 
line endings or because it had to be written 
as binary data.

binary data is NULL... :((
