Martin, This is not the TortoiseCVS newsgroup. The TortoiseCVS newsgroup is here: http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=48103 The version of TortoiseCVS I'm using on my PC automatically detects PDF's as binary (I just checked), so there is probably a simple explanation why yours did not.
I think I've perhaps added them from the command-line on a unix pc at my university.
Also CVS server has a standard configuration file (cvswrappers) where you are supposed to define file types before you do anything else. Then regardless of what TortoiseCVS does it should work. CVSNT server (GPL /free windows/linux/unix/mac) has a more "windows friendly" set of default file types, but not everything you would expect (eg: .doc is defined as ASCII by default, since in unix land it's not uncommon to call text files .doc).
At my university, I guess pdf-files are not automatically binary - that's the only explanation I can come up with. I guess I'll have to figure out how to change til cvswrappers file accordingly...
