So-called Ascii files

I want to edit files OCR'd to a Mac on my Next,
and then transfer them back to the Mac because 
there's an analysis app unavailable for Next.

These files happen to be in Italian (many accented
characters). Saving on Next to RTF, text, WP 4.2, etc.
will not retain these characters when I carry the 
disk over to the Mac (they are not and cannot be 
connected on a network here). 

Someone suggested unix command tr, and gave me the 
syntax, but tr seems to do absolutely nothing when I
invoke it. I have to control C. And I talking 
about 4k test files. 

WHAT can I do? Don't want to use Executor. 

Thanks
