This is the command I'n the batch file that is encrypting the file:       
$G_a = exec('C:\Program File (x86)\GNU\GnuPG\pub\gpg.exe',' --batch -- trust model always --passphrase secret - u "User Name" -r "Recipient Name" -se d:\bank\ach\us45ach', 8 );
The important thing is that the recipient is saying the DECRYPTED file on their end has a '.' between each and every character in the file, the original un-encrypted file does not. Know anything about why encrypting the file would do this. It's a Binary file. Now I have 5 other CHECK (not ACH) files I'm using the same keys for - but none of the other files have the problem- and I believe they are all ASCII files (as opposed to Binary).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the data services 
job that copies the file from the SAP folder to the Data Services folder, encrypts it, calls batch job that calls the script to send the file to the site.2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Same result.


Encrypted the file without placing a '.' (ASCII 00) between each and every character.
Now - originally I was copying the file with a DOS copy command with a /A switch (ASCII), the copied file would in fact have the '.' between every character. I have since taken the /A out of the copy command so the copied file now looks exactly like the original, but the Encrypted file still has the '.' between every character when decrypted.
