For whatever language you're using to do it, consult the relevant docs for
accessing bytea fields. They're usually pretty easy for reading, although pay
attention to the PostgreSQL server setting for bytea_output - most older
drivers expect that to be in "escape" format, not the more recent "hex"
format.
