Transfer Modes
As different platforms (operating systems) use different format of text files, many transfer protocols support special mode for transferring text files (called text or ASCII mode). In the mode the file is not only transferred, but also converted to format used by the target platform. The mode must not be used for binary files (including document files from modern text processors, like Microsoft Word), as they must be transferred without modification.
- Available Modes
- Editing Binary Files
- Changing Transfer Mode
- Additional Modifications
- Transferring Large Text Files with SCP Protocol
- Debugging Transfer Mode
Available Modes
WinSCP offers you the chance to select between Text and Binary transfer modes. It is set as one of the transfer settings.
WinSCP also has a special Automatic mode (default). With this mode WinSCP decides automatically about transfer mode for a particular file based on its filename (usually the file extension). The so-called text file mask can be configured in dialogs mentioned above. By default it includes HTML, TXT, PHP, XML, INI, C, CPP and other file types. You can modify the mask as you need. Files not matching the mask are transferred using Binary mode.

<h5>Relationship Manager, International Banking Group</h5>
<div class="scroll">
<p>During my journey of 13 years in State Bank, I have worked across various departments and levels, from Field Officer in Agriculture business branch to Credit Analyst in Credit Processing Cell. In 2012, I was selected for an overseas assignment in China. I was posted for a period of 3 years as Asst. Vice President (Trade Finance & Credit) of Tianjin Branch. The Bank took care of all of my professional requirements with credit appraisal training in Singapore, orientation program in Dubai and software training in Hong Kong. The accommodation and package offered at foreign offices is unimaginable. The best thing that I liked about my stay was the hospitality offered in a place as culturally different as China. All my apprehensions about my stay went away when the CEO & Country Head (China Operations), telephoned me himself within half an hour of my arrival to welcome me. On personal front, my kids got the opportunity to study in one of the best international schools. My 3 years of stay at Tianjin branch is certainly the best period of my professional as well as personal life and I feel privileged working with State Bank of India. </p>

<h4>Vijayeta Sharma</h4>
<h5>Deputy Manager & Dealer, Treasury</h5>
<div class="scroll">
<p>My journey of 5 years, which began, as a Probationary Officer in March 2011, has been exciting, rewarding and fulfilling. In this short span, the Bank has provided me with ample opportunities to work in challenging environments in various capacities like Customer Relationship Officer (CRO), Relationship Manager (Premier Banking) and Dealer in different locations. In my daily work, I get to interact with the dealers of other PSU, Private & Foreign Banks, which is a great learning experience. While being a part of the largest treasury of India is heartening, the opportunity to interact and work with the brightest minds is equally fascinating. It is the only bank that allows the officers to be placed in Middle Management group directly from Probationary Officer upon completion of probation. The policy of the Bank to provide equal career opportunities to its women workforce, extending full support during maternity leaves, accommodating location change to be with your spouse, and complete medical coverage of self & family makes the Bank an ideal employer and a great place to work. </p>

Editing Binary Files
Learn how to edit remote binary file locally.
Changing Transfer Mode
The transfer mode is set as part of transfer settings.
Note that there are two predefined transfer settings presets, Text and Binary that may help you switching the mode.
Transfer mode configured in default transfer settings may be overriden with text mode when transferring file to/from editor.
To configure transfer mode in scripting, use -transfer switch of file transfer commands. In .NET assembly use TransferOptions.TransferMode’'.
Additional Modifications
WinSCP can perform additional modifications to the text files during transfer, if configured so. Particularly, it can remove UTF-8 byte order marks and eof-of-file marks from uploaded files with SFTP and SCP protocols. See Remove BOM and EOF marks transfer settings.
Transferring Large Text Files with SCP Protocol
Note that due to SCP protocol requirements WinSCP needs to know the size of converted text files before the transfer actually starts. For that reason with SCP protocol, the whole file is converted in memory before the transfer.
If the file is too large (not common for text files), you can run out of memory during conversion. So to transfer large text file, either force binary mode (if possible) or switch to SFTP protocol.
Debugging Transfer Mode
See Why are text file line breaks wrong after the file is transferred or edited?
