Yes, it's Acorbat Reader 5.1. But I don't see any binary stuff, the
document is starting with

  %%BeginDocument: Wine passthrough
  %%BeginResource: file Pscript_CFF PSVER^M

However, file recognizes it as ASCII text, and that might be the reason
why CUPS doesn't recognize it as Postscript.

Printing with "notepad" works.
