Unix has a utility called tr  that will allow you to do a text-replace.
Don't recall the paramenters, but you want to replace  the \r with a \n. (it
has been 10 years, so latitude is required)  

Windows/DOS has similar utilities that were created to provide unix
functionality in a windows/dos environment.  Do a Google for UNIX/DOS or
"unix dos" or "DOS/Unix" or some variant.  Toss into the search a few of the
typical unix utility names and you'll find it.  Awd sed, you get the idea.

Subject: Re: [EDI-L] Gentran 5.1 converting my files to UNIX rather than DOS

what, this didn't happen when you tested?

since you haven't told us the product you're using, or the platform or 
the van ...
i'll guess you are on a unix box, but need the terminators as x0a0d 
instead of x0a.
there was -probably- a program or utility stuck in the process flow to 
filefix the data.
look in the scripts on the old box for it.  or, if you are ftp-ing the 
data, check the ftp
settings and see of they are the same between the servers.
