Thanks! That does show the raw PDF data, indicating that the Dropbox API call itself did succeed and return the file data.
That being the case, it looks like the issue here is with writing that data to the local filesystem. As that's not related to the Dropbox API itself, I'm afraid I can't offer much help with that. You'll need to debug that part of your code, such as the "SaveToFile" method. For instance, make sure you have the right local path and that you have the permissions needed to write to that path.
