There is a text header (PC-CAPS database file version, copyright), and  
then the rest of the file is binary gibberish.

However, running it through the 'PDIF Writer' produces a .pdf, which  
is actually a 'P-CAD Database Interchange Format' file, which is  
wholly text.

Symbols are still binary, but I might be able to get them to go  
through the PDIF writer as well.

Should I put up an example?  I can create an actual PDF of what it  
should look like along with the binary and PDIF outputs.
