How are you transporting the files?  If you are using FTP you need to make sure 
you use BINARY mode for the transfer or it will do nasty things to the file.  
(You can also encode the data with ascii armor and it will prevent FTP from 
mangling the data.)

Gpg compresses the files as part of the encryption process.

Another thing is if the file is bigger than about 2 gigs or so, older Oses that 
do not handle large files may truncate the data.
