I assume you mean GnuPG, which has - like PGP - an implementaion of the OpenPGP standard. > During generating the keys, the pgp card is also generating a off-card > copy.

That requires that you pass it a key-id or a user-id. You should give the key-id which was stored on the card. Note that the public key as well as the secret-key stub are not stored on the card. The backup file only contains the parts of the key which will be stored on the card. After the --edit-key prompt is shown, enter the command "bkuptocard" and follow the instructions. If you don't have the public key available, you may give any other key-id to enter the key-edit menu. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
