Mac -> UNIX PS

I have a PostScript file generated on the Macintosh that I need to send vie
e-mail (and upon receipt downloaded to a printer). However, having done this
a couple years ago I know that there are problems associated with transfering
the text straight from the mac to the unix system (something to do with (if
I remember this right) the mac being 8-bit and unix being 7-bit).

Can anyone give me any sage advice on how to go about making the file useful
to both platforms?

Thanks;

DzM
