After seeing the wrong translation, look at the file in hex mode to see what the hex value is, and what the character is supposed to be according to the software package in use. Then you have to find the right code page and the right target encoding. On Thu, Sep 19, 2019 at 1:35 PM Paul Gilmartin

A binary transfer will keep the data as-is, i.e., in EBCDIC; I suspect that what you really want is a correct translation between an EBCDIC code page and a PC code page. To do that you need to know what code page you're using on both ends. BTW, the characters in question do not exist in ASCII.
