C.10 Portable File Data

The data record has tag code F. There is only one tag for all the data; thus, all the data must follow the dictionary. The data is terminated by the end-of-file marker Z, which is not valid as the beginning of a data element.

Data elements are output in the same order as the variable records describing them. String variables are output as string fields, and numeric variables are output as floating-point fields.
