Sorry, I can't do that: the software is proprietary and I therefor cannot
upload it. It is an ERP-software with an integrated PDF-viewer. This software
is used by most of Germany's Studentenwerke.
I also can't provide the PDFs though I have > 100000 of them. They all contain
personal data as they are confirmations of enrollment of the Technical
University of Munich. I'll see if I can get one from the University generated
from fake data but I don't know if they will do that for me.
